Anyone thinking about a 2015 Shootout or is it too early
Must be too early to think about a shoot out
thinking about it, yes. Planning it, not quite yet......
Wanted to have one this fall but work keeps getting in the way for me........you retired guys make me jealous!

It's not what it's cracked up to be what with my back problems and not getting to the range when i want to
Glad to see the shoots are still happening!!! :)
No not anyone have an idea.
Can we start planning now??? It's cold as heck out today and all I can think about is sitting at a bench on a warm spring day burning some powder!!!
I need a shooting get together. Been a long time since I have seen you all. Let's have some fun.

Where do these shoots happen?
[QUOTE=fgw_in_fla;256183]We told you so...[/QUOTE]
There is a 1000 yard range out by Ridgway, PA. What type of shootout are we talking? My 110 FCP-K .308 and my 110 .338 edge would love to get together! Haha!
One Shot - One Kill. Semper Fi.
Was thinking do we need a 1000 yrd range as New Holland is 600 yrds with pull targets, would need more info but mite be doable

I compete up at Ridgway and I second it is a great place to shoot.
Ok Jr. What are red tags?
Farmers get red tags for Deer. If they do have red tags, and they give some to you, then you can legally hunt deer on their property at any time. Farmers that grow a lot of soy beans are the best guys to make friends with! Have them get red tags from the game commission and they can have you hunt all the deer on their land because of crop damage.

We don't have Elk out this way yet... Farmers are allowed to shoot the deer out here for crop damage at any given time. The nice thing about the red tags is that I can go hunt and keep the animal instead of having to turn it is to the game commission. here is a site that sort of explains the rules. Red tags only apply to whitetail deer (that I know of), and only apply to antlerless deer.

Just checked new holland gun clubs website and they now charge $1000/day to rent the 600yd range! Pretty steep but would be $50/shooter if we had 20 committed members.

Time is running out ??? for a shoot out
I threw it out there in my last post to see how many members would commit and pay the $50 minimum each(dependent on head count)..... So far we have 2.... You and me

Part of the problem is that Pa is a large state. And the only places to shoot any real type of long range
are considerable distances from many of those who would be interested. Ridgeway for example would be
a five to six hour drive one way from n/e Philly. So it would require a weekend not a day. Even the central
part of the state would be difficult for a one day outing. The 1000 yd range known as Williamsport is actually
about 20 miles north on rt 14 near a place called Bodines. The property is privatly owned and leased to the Williamsport club.
Im fairly certain other groups use those facilities also. The property is owned by the Plant family who live on the property.
It is simply a 1000 yd range however and there are no provisions for shooting closer distances. Im not sure if temporary
targets would be permissable even if it were available. Membership at Ridgway is $50 initialy and $35 per year thereafter.
You can use the facilities all day every day except on those days matches are being held. Just go shoot and take a guest if you like.
I'm in for eather Ridge Way or New Holland
I'm in with another member for New Holland or Williamsport. So that's a 2 person vote.
