Old Man Graybeard Posted December 28, 2019 Posted December 28, 2019 The only ones that lose brass are the people who have rifles that throw brass forward. The bays are not independent so pickers can’t go ahead of th firing line. I think after the day is done...you are allowed to go forward to look for brass. But I would check with Tuco first. He is the range master
evil dogooder Posted December 28, 2019 Posted December 28, 2019 DO IT!! It'll be fun, come and give it a go. I got a 30" hammered double I would loan you! It's an inside joke with red and I. I bring out my single shot from time to time. I do ok with it. Thank you for the offer of the 30" though. That sounds fun some time I'd like to find a 30" + 10 ga hammered toy to play with

Old Man Graybeard Posted December 28, 2019 Posted December 28, 2019 Evil Dogooder ain't that big. If a 10 gauge didn't knock him over...it might slide him back about 10 feet...
