That's precisely what we do at the "range." We gather up all the "dead"
soda bottles and cans, put them in separate bags, and toss them in the
appropriate recycle bins at the county "trash out," which is about five
miles away and on the way home.

If you live more than about 500 miles from the place where they
actually recycle the plastic, it is a wash environmentally.
Most of the plastic is burned in the waste to energy incinerator here,
whether it came from the trash stream or the recycle stream.
The only recycling that actually makes economic sense this far from
the recycler is metal.
Recyclers don't really want "dirty" bottles anyway like the ones I
find floating in the water.
I do wonder how Harry is picking up all the bits of plastic from the
bottles he explodes. I can see him getting the big pieces but it is
the little ones that are a danger to wildlife.



We have a couple of trash picker-uppers on site to grab the plastic,
paper and cans. One of our buddies collects and reloads the brass. I
don't use reloads, but some of the other guys do.

Our range does not allow exploding targets. Bottles count?

Our range is private and allows whatever we want. We don't shoot glass,
though. Too dangerous.

Oh, really? It's on a multi-acre lot that backs right up to the
Shenandoah River, and probably 90% of it is heavily wooded. The property
is lovely. The shooting range is on a tiny sliver. It would only be
trashy if you showed up.

How many boats you hit on the river? So little bits of plastic are not
trashy?

What makes you think we shoot towards the river? Is that something you
would do?

Little bits of plastic are tough on birds. If they pick them up they
get a gizzard full of plastic that will not help them digest food and
never go away.
