Re: range setup
This is why one range bag wouldn't work for me.
Now I have to fill in my log books of how things went.

Re: range setup
Cool setup, biglever.
The pic I really liked was your interesting perspective shot of the ammo.

Re: range setup
I enjoyed seeing your gear and reading your range report, too. Thanks.
The only "extras" in my range bag are some spare earplugs, a spare pair of safety glasses, and a set of screwdrivers, which I really needed once but didn't have at the time. I haven't needed them at the range since, but I still take them along every time, anyway.
I'm more like RanchRoper. I take the guns out of their cases, set up the targets, load, and shoot.
