New Indoor Range

[gr8smiles]

One of the great benefits of suppressors is they allow you to shoot most anywhere and not disturb anyone. I decided to set up a small indoor range in my basement. I can get to 60 feet, it's heated and cooled, no annual fees, not weather dependent, no snappy range officers, and no one three feet away doing AR or AK mag dumps (not that there's anything wrong with that, just not 3ft away when I'm benching 22lr. I'm shooting into a 22lr bullet trap that I've filled with melted wax from old candles. All I hear is 'thud'.
Definitely limited to 22 rifles and really good handgun shots. I also must clean up the brass since I do sleep with the 'range officer':)
Perfect for dialing in a scope or testing suppressors. 89 decibels is my best so far. Racking the bolt was 82.
Rifle pictured is a Cooper Jackson Squirrel with a Surefire Ryder ss can.

Don't tell me that Ariel is your target?  Poor Ariel.  :eek:

What scope is that?

It's a Leupold Vx-3 6.5x20 AO. I prefer scopes with adjustable objectives because so much of my shooting is done inside 50 yards.

There is such a thing as a lucky dog outside of Nascar.  Nice setup all the way around.

I'll let him answer for sure, but I would assume that it was ordered that way. That is a Cooper rifle, custom made.

Don't mean to be the party pooper here but...

Lead dust?
