AWSOME PICS! Whoever took those pics has some talent and a really nice camera Looks like ya'll had an awsome time...I'm so jealous

 

[M60]

I shot the images. I was using a Canon Rebel XT and a Canon 70-200 f2.8 L lens.

I was shooting in Aperature priority and adjusting the depth of field/shutter,and ISO as needed.

Thanks.

What is that H&K fire-breathing monstrosity?

Looks like Oregon to me! If it is, I was just up there at the snowline last week. Good times!

 

[resonance]

Wow, those pics are incredible!

Yup. It's Oregon. Just South East of Estacada (sp?) Great place to shoot.

We even got the local Ranger to fire a couple of shots.

Nice job on the pictures!

How many dB does the can on the first "MP5" soak up?

Yup. It's Oregon.

I could tell by the fact that you said it was this weekend and the rain/snow mix in many of the pictures. It was pretty nasty at a couple points yesterday here in Salem.

Great pictures. By the way, what's your Canon's maximum shutter speed? I'm asking because I use an old Nikon FM2 (with a max shutter speed of 1/4000), and I'm thinking of taking some 800 ISO film the next time I go shooting with my .45-owning uncle. By my mental calculations, I should be able to turn the bullet into a streak only a few inches long if I time the shot correctly.

That .308 looks like a V-51. Boy, I want one of those.

Thanks.

I don't know how many Db the can saves, but I will tell you it's pretty quiet. The action slapping back and forth is louder than the gunshot.

what's your Canon's maximum shutter speed?

It's 1/4000. You better take a metric butt load of film to capture a bullet in flight. I just get lucky when it happens to me and shot approx 1000 frames this weekend.

Great shots!

Kids (of all ages) and machineguns are always a fun time.

 

[Chris McClinch]

Great shots. Canon shooter myself (and I've got the lens you were using), but never taken the camera down to the range. It's clearly time to rectify that.

 

[lvcat2004]

Great pics!

Nice pix; along with some very nice hardware. I also liked how you effectively silenced the local Forest Ranger. Good work.

 

[Big45]

Awesome photography.

 

[blackcash88]

Yeah, Glocker82, he sure does. Kid needs to put down the burger, fries and the ice cream.

I like the pits up there as well. It is too bad that there is such a shortage of public rifle ranges in the area. I am glad that I am not the only one who does not let the weather get in the way. Next time I am up there and see that type of hardware, I will stop by and introduce myself (If that is alright?).

 

[The Scout]

WOW, those pictures are amazing, wish I had been there.

 

[Deer Hunter]

A KRINK?

One of my dreams AKs....

I hate you.

 

[chihuahuatn]

1/250, 1/500 @at F2/8 or F4.....................just a guess .........how close am I?

 

[Chris McClinch]

You look to be right on the money about f/2.8 or f/4, but judging by the muzzle flash photos and the one that caught a bullet in flight, I'm assuming the shutter speed was a lot faster than 1/250 or 1/500. Remember that the Canon digitals are frequently shockingly good at surprisingly high ISO. There's no reason to believe these aren't shutter speeds around 1/2000 or 1/4000.
