Damn someones going to get sued. Is that what all those noises were last night? I thought they were training up at the police range or something.

Wow, I was in the back yard and heard it hit. I told my wife they must be demolishing something at geneva. Glad it did'nt land in my back yard. Me and the pup would have been toast. And even worse than that, I'd of missed the moab trip this weekend.

I'm metric stupid, so I converted that to regular distances..
11500 meter = 7.1457687 mile
14000 meter = 8.6991967 mile
19000 meter = 11.8060527 mile
obviously that's for military rounds, and I'm not sure if that's the same kind of howitzer, but you get the picture...
Someone's gonna have a nice vacation out of this.

As soon as I got out of shock, I would be down at the UDOT finding out who put my son's/family/my life in danger and I would kicking some a** oh well, I guess it was just a howitzer round no big deal Seriously sux for that family though, but they should set for life I would think...

This isn't the first time this has happend. Poweder MTN lost one 25odd years ago that destroyed a house in Ogden. Well it wasn't quite a house. It had only been framed in but you get the point.

Oopsy. I guess it either bounced, or someone jarred the scope mount.
When they shoot at work in the wee hours of the morning, you can watch these shell's fly at it's target. I must say, they don't fly in a straight line and a little breeze can push them just right.... These rounds are quite large and I'm suprised that the hole isn't larger.
