    Negative. As long as you're not blatantly failing to maintain control you can shoot as many 2 second Bill drills you want. Other range rules and standard; no steel core ammo, don't be a dick, etc.

    And there I was, thinking you knew my name because you really liked me. This is the most disappointing thing I've heard since the stripper incident.

  12. So, Is There Enough of a Silent Majority To Stem the Tide?

    I'm not optimistic.
