Berm

I haven't been real happy with my downrange rifle facilitates out at a any challenging range so i added a much needed official backstop for the crew that likes to play out there .



a couple of shots from the berm looking towards the fireing line. If you embiggin /zoom you can see one of the haul trucks in one for a sense of scale.






View from the fireing line looking at the berm.



And with a bit of zoom


The berm is approximately 300 cubic yards of screened material ( to insure there are no large rocks that could deflect bullets ), or put another way 50 truckloads.

To be done another day .. plant a 2" pipe frame to hang steel targets from and laze the exact range to the fireing line . It should come out 850 to 950 yards if i have my swag right .
