Getting to the range is difficult but going sailing is easy. So, why
not shoot from the boat? Are there any reasons not to go out say 3
miles and put out a closed cell foam ball and shoot at it so the shot
basically goes toward Cuba 450 miles away?


You will have time for about one magazine full before that nice
sailors breeze blows it out of range. You can have a floating piece of
plank which will have less leeway, with the target on it. Is it
illegal to sink beer cans and bottles?
