Default planned range session

Since I moved to Virginia a few years ago I have not had a place nearby to shoot when I wanted to. Range sessions require significant travel, one place is on a state wma and is closed from April 1 to August 31 and the other is at a firearms shop and you have to buy your ammo there (all components for ML'ers). Both are about an hour one way. This weekend I'll be in PA for my brothers high school graduation and going away party (Marines) and Iplan to burn some powder.

I have the CVA Missouri Rifle (percussion .50), purchased five months ago that has not been shot, plan to shoot prb's and 2F goex.May try t/c maxi hunters also.

I have the t/c renegade hunter (percussion .50)that needs to be shot. Probably shoot this with prb's and 2F goes as well. Will try t/c maxi hunters in this one too.

What I'm looking forward to the most is the t/c renegade (flint .50) with green mtn lrh barrel. Will shoot 2f goex with t/c cheap shots, t/c maxi hunters, 240 grain xtp's, and some precision rifle conicals 400 grain i think.

Looking forward to shooting. Should make for one hell of a range report complete with pictures. Last range session was during winter in PA and the cold killed the camera batteries. Look for the post Friday evening or Saturday morning.

Cory.

Have fun with the shoot, and pass along my thanks and admiration to the future Marine.
