My favorite desert to shoot has got to be boston cream pie. Cupcakes are pretty good to shoot at too. ZING

Me I like to shoot them there watermelon balls. Especially with some tequila.

my sheriff buddy told me it is legal to shoot in kern county. theres a nice area west of rosamond. take the 14 fwy north if coming from LA. exit Backus rd. it's the exxit after rosamond blvd. go west on backus rd until the road ends and turn into dirt. go over the bridge and drive further west on the dirt road for about a mile or 2 until the dirt road curves right and there is a nice little ravine like area to shoot towards the mountain.

Have a great time shooting and take your spent casings back home. Leave no trace.

Shot on the 24th of last month.
Semi crowded
But seemed to be a decent group.

Lots of trash closer to the 15.

Last time I posted a good spot on calguns, 6 months later the place was overrun with trash. Shot out TVs computers and even a couch. Won't make that mistake again. Then again, that was many many years ago, about the time this thread was started.

Be headed their end of next week, waiting for parts.

I see a lot of people mentioning BLM but also checkout USDA (yeah THAT USDA) and National Forrest. The rangers were super friendly and told me where to go when the "designated shooting areas are closed"

yeah it's not the dessert but its still land open to shooting (and a bit closer to the OC).
