    Yes..I have a few stories too. There was a man came out to our range, very secluded and not well attended. RSO has to be self appointed when several folk are there. This one day a man lays out his shootin' irons and gets to work until one shot detonates his rifle. Pieces everywhere. A bystander was hit and seriously injured but one shooter was a MD so his life was saved. Off to the hospital. Seems the offender had done this at least three times, one revolver cylinder had split and gone through the shed walls years earlier. Holes are still there. The bystander? A guest that hadn't been paid for or registered... The offender? Had his membership lifted by the committee forthwith. Yes, he was an experimental reloader.

    That's just one...
    Regards, Jim
