[QUOTE="nvschütze, post: 1797679, member: 110896"] I can completely understand that! Ranges that are attached to a gun store always close at 1630 or 1700 and there you are, burnin' the daylight of the other shooters with your interminable fiddlin' with your chrono. You think you have it right, you go back to your bench, the range goes active, you fire a shot and only then do you discover that the chrono is not aimed right or whatever-- and you just lost maybe twenty minutes of firing time until the next inactive period comes around. I feel for you guys... I wanted to shoot in a place with as few impediments as possible to sending lead downrange. I had the opportunity as a trucker to drive out to Nevada from Virginia in Fall 2000. I was sent to a small town along I-80 a bit east of Reno and when I saw the place, I knew I had to move there. Took me four years to make the move but I did. Best thing I ever did, and I'll never move back to the madness that is the East Coast. Being fat, ugly as sin, single and bald makes relocation very easy. No wife or kid problems to consider-- you just decide when & where, plan a little and get going. I shoot in the desert; my buds and I (if I might go with someone else) are always the only ones out there. If anybody else is out there before we get there, we just choose another place. There are hundreds and hundreds of wide-open BLM land all around and not very far away. I wanted a place to shoot with as few pains in the gluteus maximus as possible. I found it. I love it here. Praise God for creating this land that became Nevada... [/QUOTE]
