Firing ranges and learning how to use a gun

[Americanhero1]

Who on this forum has been to one if so how did you do and what was your best shot? My best was firing a 30-06 Rifle 1000 yards and hitting the target right between the eyes the target was a picture of the prophet Muhammad.I posted it here because i don't know if anyone looks at the firearm section

Muhammad was not a prophet, just a false prophet.

I'd like to learn how to shoot but I haven't had time to take the classes for it.

[Americanhero1]

it is fun once you get the hang of it

[Americanhero1]

i only had one lesson in learning how to shoot a gun

[briann]

A strongly suggest shooting at a Koran.  In general, its more fun to shoot at a book than a paper target, and its a bit more challenging.

[Americanhero1]

how so to me its the same

Depending on the caliber, ammo etc sometimes a book will really fly apart. I saw the 'kill the koran' video and it blew up with the last M16 round. Must have toppled.
