It seems like we cannot go a few days without hearing news stories focused on guns, and being safe when handling them is of utmost importance whether you are practicing on the firing range or establishing safety protocols in your home. The National Shooting Sports Foundation® (NSSF®), the trade association for the firearms industry, has recently released a safety video called: “Introduction to Range Safety and Etiquette.” As gun sales rise, sales of gun safes also increase. Unfortunately, when demand is high for anything, it also opens the doors for products that are anything but safe.

from http://mt2.com/blog/3971-being-safe-on-the-firing-range-is-important-but-dont-forget-to-choose-a-good-gun-safe-to-protect-your-family-at-home/ 10 million of the nation’s 13 million hunters prefer to go after the big game, white tailed deer. Deer populations across the country are thriving and there’s plenty out there ready to be hunted down. However, these animals aren’t stupid. If you’re going to bag one, you’ll have to make sure you have plenty of hunting experience and the right equipment to back you up. One way to ensure a kill without a deer even registering your presence is with the right rifle scope. You might be an expert on the firing range, but facing a live animal is a whole different game. Here’s what to avoid when it comes to purchasing a scope. Don’t Buy Anything Shiny One thing we all love about guns are the aesthetics. Often much of the outer shell of a rifle is purely decorative, making it look more powerful and exciting. A traditional hunting rifle would have come with a metallic, reflective surface, but if you want any hope of landing a kill, this is the last thing you need. A modern-day hunting rifle scope should come with a matte black finish. This prevents a deer catching sight of you and allows you to remain hidden for longer. While the technical features of a scope are important, they become useless if you can’t remain camouflaged. Don’t Overspend For most people, the scopes in the $1,000+ range are simply unnecessary. The key to effective hunting lies in the hunter, not the equipment. Keep your budget down to $200-$300 and you’ll have everything that you need. Many well-known and popular brands such as Nikon and Simmons produce scopes in this price bracket and they are widely used even by top hunters. Don’t assume that by spending a large amount you’re automatically making life easier for yourself. Find the highest quality scope you can within a reasonable price range. Don’t Worry About Brightness Scopes help improve visibility by revealing a bright image to the hunter. This often leads people to overspend on a scope with the highest brightness level. However, this really isn’t necessary. Whichever rifle scope you purchase, it will be set to work from legal first light to the last. The only reason to go for a brighter option is to go beyond the legal limits, which is of course not advised. Instead, you should consider robustness and zoom capabilities. Is your rifle still accurate after it’s been bashed around? If it’s still working fine, then you know you have a solid scope on your weapon. When it comes to zoom, stick to 3x-9x. Anything more than that will only add weight without giving any extra benefit. If you can’t see the prey clearly, simply move in closer rather than purchasing a new scope. The rifle scope is one of the most important features on your weapon. The accuracy of your shot is in its hand, so choose wisely. Avoiding the mistakes above will ensure you stay hidden and can hunt effectively, without overpaying on wasted features.

No related posts. from http://mt2.com/blog/3932-common-mistakes-to-avoid-when-buying-a-rifle-scope/ An Environmental Stewardship Plan (ESP) is a responsible, legally compliant management plan to conserve our natural resources and sustain our environment. It is a “living document” intended as a long-term management and planning document to be reviewed, at a minimum, annually and revised as appropriate based on implementation experience. Accordingly, the range should consider working closely with a qualified Environmental Stewardship Plan services provider. Working side-by-side to properly execute the ESP will provide the best results for your range in the long term. An Environmental Stewardship Plan presents a strategy for ongoing environmental stewardship related to shooting-generated constituents throughout the life of the range and are consistent with the guidance and recommendations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA 2001), the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF 1997), and the Interstate Technology and Regulatory Council (ITRC 2005).
The purposes of an Environmental Stewardship Plan can include, but are not limited to:
Addressing lead hazards at an outdoor shooting range can include, but are not limited to:
Your Environmental Stewardship Plan (ESP) Has the Potential for Saving Money and Improving Health at the Range:
A savvy shooting range ESP can also generate income for the range through EPA-compliant recycling and reclamation of lead bullets, shot, and metallic casings. While the idea of an ESP may seem daunting for a firing range, there are often simple, economical ways to implement one.
