Found a .50 cal bullet at the range
« on: April 15, 2008, 07:14:53 PM »
Cleaning up after the LRTR match I found a .50 bullet laying on top of the ground. Pretty well preserved

for comparison, I put a 30-06, .308, and .223 next to it.



I gave it to my son, who proceeded to grab a .50 cal case that grandpa had given him



Now he has a really cool looking almost complet .50 cal bullet in his room.

Do you want a dummy 50 round? Send me a email and I'll send one to you for your sone. If your in the MT home area we can go shoot and you can shoot my 50 if you want.

That would be cool, he would love that! (So would I  ;D)

Were in the Boise area, but we do travel out that way some, it might be worth it to find a weekend and come up there for a chance to shoot a .50.

Thanks,

Brian

I'm in Mountain Home. I usually shoot every weekend if I can.
