This may be my new favorite shooting activity. I've been going to the 25 yard indoor range and poking holes in paper for so long, that I forgot what it's like to shoot outdoors for fun. The place I went had previously been shut down for shooting due to excessive garbage left by some shooter. But now is apparently open to it again.
After I got done testing loads with the chronograph, I turned around to the other side of the canyon and found a huge rock on the hillside. That one proved too big so I chose a smaller one farther out, about 20" in diameter and somewhere around 150-180 yards away, and just shot at it with my .41 mag Blackhawk. Sometimes I hit it, sometimes I missed it, sometimes I couldn't tell. But man it was fun!
I'm going to have to do more of this. Maybe, I'll even get some steel to hang out up there.
