Shooting at a true range, with formal rules, restricted targets, and range safety officers is not plinking to me. If I go to the range, it is for a purpose, i.e. to zero a rifle or shoot a known distance range.

well, He did say he was going to use his AR for plinking right?
Plinking refers to informal target shooting done for pleasure typically at non-standard targets such as tin cans, logs, soda bottles, or any other homemade or naturally occurring target.
Judging by his over all post, He doesn't sound new to the term "Plinking" so I just thought it was a given that he meant what he wrote, thats all..
