What do you bring along on a range trip?

[JDA58]

Get a set of picks.
I swear, every group shoot, SOMEONE ends up borrowing one to extract a round, or some such thing.

Harbor Freight - about a buck on sale.

Yeah these picks have come in handy a few times so I added a set of my own.. ..might have to add that bag of Swedish fish too

All I know my range bag is too damn heavy.. Cleaning rods/ AR multi tool/ can of REM oil/staple gun staples/screw drivers & picks/Mags/Targets/ TP/pens/ few office clips/Lighter/ rags...not sure what else..

Great list. Do you have a premade kit or manufactured? It isn't that I'm lazy. It is that i get overwhelmed.

I have this kit:

Extra drawers in case I have a blowout?

Wow ......... this thread is way over thought

That there "carry weapon" you guys are referring to.
That's like the one you have with you no matter where you go. Right?

That's why it's not on my list.

I'm not a "minimalist" when I drive an hour to the range.

3 trips to the 300 yard berm is better than a mile so I multitask with excercising too.

If I'm only going to shoot pistols, I take 2 or 3 stands, 6 2X2's, cardboard backers and 4 steel targets and sometimes a table and chair. (not all pistol bays have stands or benches)

Last week, I took 8 jugs of water to see what type of expansion I got from 10mm hardcast and a 30-30 round that Speer told me I was using the wrong powder. I've done extensive research exploding water jugs and here are some results.
Can't always be all business there.
