Thumbs up Oceana Trap & Skeet in VA Beach

Hi Guys!, I just got back from Virginia Beach a few days ago, and while I was down there I got the oppurtunity to visit a Trap, Skeet and Five stand range on the military base called Oceana Trap & Skeet . They have 5 skeet ranges 2 trap ranges and 1 five stand sporting clays course. Very nice layout and I will have to take my gun next time I go down. Also a real nice place to watch the F-18 jets land they are right behind you !

I have actually shot that range. However, I only got to see F-14's landing and it was cool to see them do the J-hook when they came in. Got to hear a little sonic boom when one broke the sound barrier with his wing tip, according to my friend that is an F-18 pilot. He is currently stationed down there again after being up here in Maryland at the Patuxent test pilot school.

When I was down there 7 years ago, they had just installed the 5 stand range. My buddy watched me shoot it because he had never shot it before.
