Sounds like a good idea to me.
Where are you located? You don't have to be specific, regional info works.... I'd like to hit the range at Stonewall Jackson if it's still in nice shape and gas prices drop into the realm of reasonable again, but that's a good 4 hour drive from here. There's a range at Beechfork Lake outside of Huntington, but it's a scarey place on the weekends based on what I've seen and heard. I went there once in the late summer (early September) and the unsafe shooters were in full bloom. We packed up and left before noon. You can't walk on safely at or near the bench area for the piles of fired steel cases no one seems to clean up. There's also a nice, well maintained range near RD Bailey Lake where we've held the Southern WV shoot a few times. |

Count my son and me in. We live in southern WV near the R.D. Baily range Chuck spoke of. Check out the pics Chuck posted of our last two yearly meets there, they are further down in this forum. We can travel to most any place in central/southern WV. for a Saturday shoot.

Count me in. I'll bring the grenades and blanks. Just let me know where and when.

George, you created a dummy round launcher-monster out of Stan!
I'm back to work full time again (until the first heavy rainfall/flood or snow storm)...so it'll have to be a weekend after the grass & weeds stop growing for me. |

Hey Guys, I am sorry to be slow returning to this thread. Been gone.
I am in Webster County. I shoot near Flatwoods at a state range. I will travel anywhere if the calendar is clear. Stonewall would be fine. Southern WV would be closer than Huntington. Pete |

Trying to coordinate a day that is compatible for everyone is tough!
October is shot for me with events at work as well as hunting season activities. September is tied up almost every weekend with family things. I've got a bass tournament this weekend that we've already paid for the entry fee. It's hard to do stuff in the Fall of the year for me. I get one weekend for Knob Creek that the family knows not to mess with trying to schedule anything. What about December? Good & cold then though, right? |

I can do December! But if waiting till Spring is better,,,then so be it.

Re: hi | ||

I would imagine that the range won't be crowded in December either....
Maybe we can have a Winterfest Blast-O-Rama? |

If you have a Winterfest Blast-O-Rama I will even come down from Ohio for it!

Re: Winterfest Blast-O-Rama | ||

Well Todd, that's good enough reason right there to have it in December!
But will you bike in or drive? |

Re: Winterfest Blast-O-Rama | ||
|
I'll be driving down. Could you see me riding a bicycle with a couple of bandoliers crossed on my chest with a couple of rifles slung on my shoulders?! Pistols stuck in my bike shorts.
I'll bet I wouldn't get hassled! Let me know when it is, I'm there! |

Someone was selling a Finnish Army bike over at gunboards....
That would be something to see on US Route 52! But wear a uniform, not a bike-racing speedo! |

Y'all let us know when and where. Dec. should be good , all the hunters , like me , SHOULD have theirs sighted in by then and the ranges should be fairly open. Y'all know I'll suggest the range at R.D. Bailey ,it's only 10 mi. for us !
I guess I'll have to drink a 12 pack of coors light for "grenades" for my milsbomb launcher on my wire wrap , Stan , you , I'm sure will bring the other grenades to launch ! "Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition"
