Well alot of the preppy kids at my high school like to throw big senior dinner parties and what not since we are graduating next week, but I decided that I would have a shooting party instead. so my dad, brothers, shooting buddies, and I went to the range today, and we had a blast :2pistol:
first we started off at the handgun range. We shot the CZ-82, CZ-75, Glock 19, Glock 30, and SA XD .45

here's (http://s17.photobucket.com/albums/b99/hunter_la5/?action=view¤t=2.flv) a video of someone shooting at steel plates with a Glock 19 (9mm)
and here's (http://s17.photobucket.com/albums/b99/hunter_la5/?action=view¤t=3.flv) my brother shooting his CZ-75
I mostly just shot my CZ-82 (9x18 makarov). My groupings weren't great, but they were passable I guess. I'll post pics of the target later. I had my first malfunction, with wolf ammo, in which the round failed to feed properly and jammed the mechanism somehow. It functioned fine with 1000 rounds of Polish Mesko surplus, and on the 14th round of Wolf it messed up. just great. and the Wolf is DIRTY as all get out
Then we headed over to the skeet range and did some skeet shooting with the Winchester Model 70, Browning BPS, some old early 1900's era Remington auto shotgun that resembles the Browning A-5, and a single shot break-open 20 guage

Then we went over to the sniper range to plink at 300 and 400 yard metal gongs the size of human torso's. We used the CETME, my bro's FAL, a couple Yugo M70ab2's (ak underfolder), and the Mosin Nagant M91/30, all iron sights.
With the CETME, we were able to hit the 300 yard gong nearly every time. at 400 yards, we hit about 2/3 of the time. I hit 4 out of 5 shots :airtight: I was very pleased :rockon: not malfunctions of any kind. It was one of the favorite guns of the day, no suprise
with the Ak's we could hit about 2/3 - 3/4 (depending on the shooter) of the time at 300 yds and 1/4 - 1/2 the time at 400 yards, which was better than I was expecting. And who said the max effective range of the AK is only 300 meters? :icon_neutral: No malfunctions, no duh, its an AK
With the Mosin we could hit the 300 yard gong about 1/3 - 1/2 of the time. the sights aren't quite on, and the trigger pull is LONG, so I wasnt too suprised.
the FAL sights mysteriously lost zero in transit, and it was shooting way high, so we didnt shoot it very much :icon_confused:
Overall, a great day. one of the best (and longest) range trips Ive had in a long time
