I went target shooting this morning and had brass slinging all over the
place.  First it was a Sig, then a Glock, then some 9mm I hadn't heard of
before.  Then out came the Steyr Aug A3 and the M4.  That was a load of fun.
The guy with the MP 5's didn't show up so we only had one full rock n roll
and no whispers.

Last of all, was a prototype 50 cal bolt action rifle.  The cartrige casing
is shorter than a regular 50, with the whole cartrige (with bullet) being as
tall as a regular 50 cal cartrige casing.  Some of the 'special' things
about this weapon are the 2730fps and 19.5# weight.  The kick wasn't bad at
all, nothing like you would think for such a large gun.  Didn't have a
bowling ball, but a jug of water didn't stand a chance (no wabbits around,
too noisey).  The military has tested the gun a couple of times and likes it
so far.  Takes a lot to put a new gun and cartrige on the military market.

I have video of the morning fun but won't have time till probably this
weekend to get any online.

And to think I had to go to work while you had all the fun... bummer....
