At the club I'm at, if you have more than 2 shooters on the line, there has to be an RSO. Which any one of us can do (but means you aren't shooting obviously). Mostly because all of us got kicked repeatedly in the head while going through the membership process until we all agreed to take the RSO course. So unless the shooter is a guest, we are all qualified. But we don't get any fee decreases. I think there probably are lower fees if you are an instructor, but the bar is pretty high to clear to be an instructor. Have to be pretty well known in the club as an exemplary member before they'll consider you. |

Never used Ballistics AE,but I've heard good things about it. I would think they would have something.
I use Shooter (on an Android). They use to have muzzle velocity adjustment.. But then they came out with something they called Velocity Calibration. I haven't tried it out yet. ![]() |

This range is about fifteen minutes from my house. It's a nice place.

Has anyone checked out the Sig P320 X-Five? Been looking for a new handgun and it supposedly competition ready out of the box. Haven't seen a negative review yet.

Relatively inexpensive. Seems like a competitor might be a Walter PPQ Match.

I always thought Walther handguns have been underrated with all the Glock, Sig and S&W.
Though I'd agree it won't win any beauty pageants. |

Notice that it jumps from .22 (which with a very well placed shot could kill, but otherwise won't) up to .357 / .38? I've an idiotic theory that the .25 and .32 calibres don't have much recoil (but are much more deadly than .22) and someone a long time ago whispered in the government's ear that these are calibres an assassin would pick as the lack of recoil could make shot placement very easy, along with followup, so make them prohibited. Probably an idiotic theory, but it is the only one I can come up with. Otherwise, I don't understand it either. |

Not that it would be legal anyways, but I wonder what it would be like shooting one of those calibres through a silencer. Especially the .25 - I'd think it would be very silent, very easy to control. Almost like....one was Agent 47 in Hitman. |

Just note that if anyone thinks of doing this.. be sure your country allows it. In the USA.. it's Federal crime. Personally I think USA should remove suppressors from NFA. I prefer shooting suppressors.. and shooting next to people who are using suppressor. |

Here's my Walther P22 with a suppressor. It's stupid quiet! I like taking it camping for target practice because it's so quiet it wouldn't bother anyone else who may be camping in the area and I don't need to bring ear pro. I can only imagine other small calibers like .25 and .32 are very similar.
