I'm going to target practice tomorrow. Now all I have to decide is which weapons I plan to shoot. Compared to most I have a small inventory but still it is enough to require some decision process. I have .22 plinking days, carbine days and long rifle days. I always pair up a pistol or 2 with a rifle. If I ever get my 1911 it will go with the long rifle(30.06). My 9 mil goes with carbine(mini 30 and SKS) and my Ruger Mark 3 target goes on .22 days with my Marlin 60 rifle.
I never get in a rush. Range days are like meditation for me. I feel more relaxed, calm and peaceful and it lasts for a day or 2 after I go shoot.
Sometimes I may have some equipment to fiddle with like a new scope or moving a scope position, re-sighting in a rifle. Lately, I've been focused on getting my Romanian SKS back in good shooting condition. I think it is ok now since I have run about 60 or 80 rounds through with no issues. Occasionally I will test a new home load to see how it might compare to my tried and true loads.
I absolutely love my range days. I talk with people a lot at the range. We often swap guns and try out each other's stuff. I got to shoot an authentic Colt 45 wild west gun once and a full auto ak 47. I got to shoot a CZ 75 which I probably won't ever be able to buy but that is a very nice gun. I get to shoot guns I will never be able to own which is a good/bad thing sometimes. However, nobody has ever asked me if they could shoot my Arisaka 7.7, LOL.
What are your range days like?
