Brought My Little Indoor Range Into The FUTURE!!!!......

[cslinger]

Ok it sounds way better then it really is. I have basically 60 feet wall to wall in my basement that is my rifle shooting lane. All said and done probably 18-19 yards of shooting distance. Now my vision has never been great by any stretch so when I shoot iron sights I cannot readily see the impacts. I keep a set of binoculars handy or just walk up and check but me being bored thought........there's gotta be an app for this.

So I grabbed an old Iphone and an old first gen Apple TV my dad gave me, that I don't use and thought I wonder if I can Airplay the camera app.........and VOILA, instant feedback in high definition 1080P

So yeah, not exactly rocket surgery, nor anything that hasn't been done in some way or another before but adds to the fun in my basement.

As always take care and shoot safe,
Chris

I like it! .177 holes are very small--that makes them a lot bigger.

Where would we be without technology?

We were never doing it wrong right up until the time we were.

Well, without technology, we produced better teenagers. I know...I have a 13 year old in the house that is glued to tech like heroin.

The OP had a great idea that worked out well for him. Overall I agree with you both.

I also think it was an excellent idea. My statement was really was not intended to be as negative as it may sound. Improvements in processes are inevitable and must be embraced whenever possible.

Sorry OP, yes, it’s a good idea.

I use a GoPro down range when I’m doing a ladder test. Then I don’t have to setup a spotting scope and I know exactly where every shot went. I also use it as a backup camera when I need to hook up my sled trailer.
