Range Notes...

At the range yesterday...
  • Note to self: You've got to charge that timer up or you might as well not bring it...
  • ...which was okay yesterday because you could have timed those reloads with a sundial, anyway.
  • Granted, it was all of fifty degrees out and the $secret_test_pistol was a compact piece with a three and a half inch barrel, but the Federal RTP9115 was averaging only 1065fps. I need to chrono some standard-pressure defensive ammo through it when it's actually cold out. I'd be skeptical of a lightweight nine bullet that was subsonic in cold weather.
  • The Glock ate fifty rounds of nasty TulAmmo 115gr, bringing the total to 1650. Bath time soon.
