We went to the range today. We took the two new guns because Ellen isn't strong enough to operate the Kimber. It was crowded and loud when we got there. The sound was mainly because the guys next to us were shooting a rifle. Over time it cleared out and then things were much improved.
They had the CHL course of fire posted on the wall behind us. It looked fairly challenging. Ellen practiced at the three ranges with regular pistol targets and after about 50 rounds got to where she probably could pass. She was also listening to an instructor that was teaching some women a couple of lanes over. I had no problem with my gun. The problem is going to be ammo. We don't have much 380 and there's none around to buy.
As we were leaving I asked to buy one of the CHL qualification targets. It's inner ring is bigger than the targets that we were using. When we went to Academy I picked up some targets that will allow us to practice using a target about the size of the inner ring. That way hits anywhere on that target are good. I also picked up two boxes for my gun so I wouldn't have to waste the good stuff practicing.
All in all we had a great time.
On the way back I picked up my pills at Wally World and some water at Costco. It was 80 degrees and very humid. There are supposed to be really high winds tomorrow.
I ordered a couple of reloading dies tonight. They won't be any good if I can't find some supplies.
