You can shoot .50s at Honey Island.

The damage they do to the berms and distance they travel compared to other rounds.

Oh Ok, Thanks

Because most ranges suck!!!! On top of the complaint about the berm they may also **** off the guy on the side of you because of the noise or when your muzzle blast wipes his table clean. I wish more ranges had balls. The only one I know about is Sherburne WMA.

I shoot my .50 at IPSO range. It does make quite an impact in the burm.

He is talking 50 BMG not 500 S&W.

A buddy of mine punched through the burm at the range in Lake Charles with his.
The range is responsible for what happens after that bullet leaves the range.

My range not only allows .50s, it has a 1000yd range to shoot them on, and allows machine guns and tannerite.

LRA is so freaking awesome.

Got to get more info on your range. I would love to be able to do shooting those distances. I've only shot mine a few times at Sherburne, but if there are other people there, they usually don't appreciate the noise and muzzle blast. I usually try to go just after hunting season as there will be less people there.

No 50 BMG at IPSO - sorry.

You are welcome to be my guest there anytime.

As to the 1000yd range- for liability reasons, we do ask shooters to show some sort of proof of competency at those ranges before letting fly. That is to say, some sort of NRA Long Range certificate or something along those lines. We periodically hold certification ourselves, also, if you would be interested in some more training in shooting long distances.

That's fine. You'll never hear anyone up here bitching that the CLEO wouldn't sign their Class III forms, and I don't know of anyone getting arrested for open carry, etc. Y'all keep your crooked selves down in the swamps.
