    I have been watching this channel since episode 3 when it popped up on my feed. I haven’t missed an episode yet. I had to go watch the first two episodes immediately had to find out more about this guy who bought land in the middle of nowhere moved too it with a tent and a chain saw. I haven’t been disappointed with a single episode yet. Keep up the great work and building unique items and structures. You are in the top 5 of my favorite channels on UA-cam. Love the show see ya next week

    You are accomplishing two things at once. You cleared a spot for your shooting range and you stock piled up some logs for future builds love the shooting range can’t get enough of the shooting whether you like it or not, you’re getting pretty good above average.

I know that UA-cam creator is your job but you still get the ask the same question. I guess we will see you on the rifle platform with you yoga mat doing downward dog or whatever. Everything looks great and thanks for sharing!

    Reminded me of some of our Range working party days, once every couple of months we'd need to maintain the range, you knew those keen members would turn up and work, then the selfish members wouldn't show, but they still wanted to use the range, had a few ding dings, with selfish members turning up on working days but expecting to shoot, and moaning they couldn't. Good thing about being the only member of your range do what you want when you want. Good shooting.

    Hey Ryan, love watching your channel. Reminds me of the days when I was growing up as a kid down in Florida. Always fun in the woods!! I was thinking of an idea for a game to play on your shooting range when you have some friends out. How about a "Spin the wheel for a prize Shoot" game. You'd have to make up a spinner out of your lumber and attach it to the wooden wheel that is divided into a dozen spaces with numbers. Depending on which number the spinner lands on you would have to make those shots. Each person would spin then shoot. Who ever makes the most target hits, wins the round. The prize could be Ringworm money, etc. You would have to make up a set of rules or just have fun sooting! Have fun and keep up the good work... Ken from Florida

    Ryan, my wife and I really enjoy your videos and have watched all of them. We live in the NW Lower Peninsula of Michigan and we love the UP. Have you given any thought to building a shooting bench (out of cedar; either milled or logs or a combination of both) for your rifle range? I've incorporated several of your ideas into some of the projects that I've built and would be interested in what you might come up with for a bench. Keep up the great stuff you put out!

    Ryan, you should get a lumber/loggers crayon to keep in your tool belt. It will be much easier to use than your knife and easier to see than the notch in the bark. Also, the "cut and scooch" is known as "kerfing in" to woodworkers and timber framers.

  • @johnsadler8637
    @johnsadler8637 Рік тому +1

    Nice range! I have a vision of about the same length range up the ravine at our cabin in the western Ozarks. Natural 20-25’ high backstop. I think I can choose a lane that doesn’t have anything bigger than about 8” to cut down. If I build up a berm to the level of our road, we should be shooting nearly flat up the ravine. Next trip, maybe!

    Hey really enjoyed your video. My dad and I owe 24 acres of property and I went up in the woods and did the same thing. I was able to get out to 142 yards so very similar. I need to build some sort of platform benchfor it. Really impressive that you did all that work with a chainsaw. Pretty sweet!

  • @JJBrown-lw1dv
    @JJBrown-lw1dv Рік тому +1

    Ryan, nice new driver. In my experience drivers are GREAT for star head screws, but NOT great with phillips head screws. The hammering tends to strip the phillps screw or the bit pretty quickly. Especially since you like to put things up and then take them down later, star head screws are amazing, because you can screw them in and out a bunch of time with no stripping. Def worth the extra couple dollars to get star headed screws

    In Bisley (A very large gun range in the UK) Victorian times.

The little boy would not take cover between shots!!

    Ryan, you are doing a great job as usual. I hate you because of your shooting range. I live in a town in Georgia where you cannot shoot any weapon within the city limits which means I cannot shoot my Benjamin Akela or my 22. It is also very hard to find a remote shooting range where you can shoot powder or air power weapons unless you owe the land. Please keep the videos coming brother.

    Got to hang on to that Marlin model 60! I wished I would have gotten one when I was younger. You can't get a tube feed rifle like that anymore. The Ruger magazines tend to scratch the next bullet degrading accuracy. (nothing wrong with Rugers either but..) I have a Marlin 883 instead it's a bolt action 22wmr, still nice but I want them all! Nice range and 4 wheeler too! Wish we could be neighbors that rarely see each other, or maybe never! lol

    You could shoot a laser from point A to point B in a straight line and whatever it lights up. That's what you cut down. You get that one cut down out of the way you go back and shoot that laser again. If something's in the way of where you want it to end up, you cut that piece down and you keep going until you get to the distance you want.
