    Man, talk about a mob mentality.

    If all you "experienced" shooters can't imagine this being able to be done safely, then how experienced are you really?

    I mean come on. If I asked you to take a crack at a clay on the fly with a rifle, I'm sure you could figure out a safe way to do it. But then it'd be ok....cause it's you.

    Just like anything else with a gun, it can be done in an unsafe manner. But it can also be done safely.

        Just from reading his post, do you think it was done in a safe manner?

          Honestly, from reading his post, I couldn't tell. To be totally honest, those types of activities occur spontaneously and are unsafe.

          I guess I take offense to everyone laying into the guy without trying to make sure he was safe in the first place.

          I also agree that you don't go shooting rifles off into the air. But to flame the guy for the little amount of info he gave, I feel is unwaranted.

          NOT to point fingers, but TP's post made the first assumption by saying the guy had no idea what was behind his backstop. And then called him a retard.

          No. Retarded is..."hey, look at that bald eagle riding a thermal *BANG*"

              No, I think that is also idiotic, and on several levels. The people who do that are starved for attention.

                    haha you're right about Iowa, but it's not me who shoots skeet with a rifle.

                    I was trying to give the original poster the benefit of the doubt.

                      Agreed... If where he lives is anything like here then there's nothing for many many many miles, and it could easily be done safely.

                        I can, but I doubt it would be on a spur of the moment to find a safe place to do it. Considering that he was shooting with a shotgun and then just "randomly" switched to a rifle with pretty lengthy balistics, I highly doubt full consideration was given to where that bullet was coming down. Could I be wrong? Sure I could be, but I expect if I was he would have already pointed out how. Not to mention the thread title.

                            No acknowledgement of a safe backstop. Not exactly a bunch of tall hills in Iowa to use.

                              You know one time a friend of mine tried to convice me that you could set off fireworks in your hand and be alright. Then he did convice my less intelligent friend to do it, 5 skin graffs (sp.) later he learned they do call them bottle rockets for a reason

                              /first time doing the /'s
                              //I wonder how many shots it took to blast the CP to peices
                              ///My dumb friend would be a excellent star for one of those don't do drugs peer pressure commercials that are all the rage now
                              ////Yes my friend really was dumb enough to hold on tight to a bottle rocket
