Message: <blockquote data-quote="Hangfire" data-source="post: 4234920" data-attributes="member: 27673">I had the 200 yd range all to my self early one morning shooting one of my Encore pistol barrels and out of the corner of my eye I see an older pickup pull up to the firing line way down on the opposite end I was on and a fella probably in his late 70's get out with his wife and walk to the firing line with a scoped lever action rifle.Knowing that he'd want to hang paper I set my gun down and hollered down the range for him to go ahead and go hang his paper.....he waved a thanks and walked down to about the 75 yd. hung his target came back and I yelled, Clear ?, he gave me a thumbs up and we both started shooting.I was shooting at the 200 yd gongs and again catch movement out of the corner of my eye and with me still firing he was walking downrange to get his target after only firing about six rounds....naturally I stopped shooting and watched as he retrieved his target then loaded his wife and rifle in the truck and drove off.Still inexcusable but with us being so far apart and on opposite ends of the firing line there is no way that I could have hit him which is probably what he also figured.I could have written down his tag number and reported him to the club which would have probably gotten him booted from the club for a flagrant safety violation but didn't nor did I want to go storming down the firing line and read the riot act to him and embarrass him in front of his wife.</blockquote>
