Day at the range
Been too long since I went to the range just to shoot. Yesterday I went to the range and shot til I was worn out. 22, 223, 380, 45 ACP, 45-70. Blasting, target shooting, running the plate racks, you name it.
Damn that felt good! I haven't had a good day at the range in I don't know how long. Every time I've been to the range in the last many months was for some specific purpose - sighting in, checking function, etc. I was so relaxed last night that I fell asleep about 9:30 (it usually after midnight before I get to sleep) and I slept like a baby for the first time in I don't know how long.

My local range is a public range and you can only shoot from the bench, no steel and no draw from holster so it may be a different situation but the last range trip I ran music through my earbuds under my ear protection. I was much more relaxed and my shooting improved and I felt great afterwards!
