So when is the next open range day? Itching to confirm dope on the new 284 winny.

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Head Hunter tomorrow ... day only for me as the suppressor is still a few months from reality.

I'll have a Mcree stock with me that is for sale if anyone is looking for one.

Thanks.

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

I'm going to put the Sept night head hunter on my calendar! Other than the suppressor, what else would you consider required equipment for the night shoot?

A scope with EXTERNALLY ADJUSTABLE reticle is awful nice.

 

[Skigolfmike]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Real men don't need an Illuminated reticle.

I wish I would have had one Sat. night though.

No Closed.... If there is nothing on the schedule you can assume the range is closed, if something changes I will let everyone know.

Yes, bring back the short course!!! Big fun.

 

[Big Dog Steel]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

I meant the short course/intimidator combo just to be clear. A good mix of targets and a good way to confirm dope.

 

[Skigolfmike]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Results from the Intimidator today.

Nice shooting Margret! We wont mention that John was a great wind test dummy because, it was you who pulled the trigger and made the hits. Congrats!

Thought I heard Tom say something about it being a good thing Wayde wasn't there. Not sure what that was about.

It was about 1:30, and there were 4 shooters. We were not rushing, but not totally dawdling either.....except for skigolfmike....

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Hey, just cause I couldn't find the damn reticle ...

At least I didn't have to borrow a gun

Can't make it this Saturday, but I'll be there with a group
Sunday for the open range.

So what would a new guy who hasn't shot his .308 Rem 700 SPS Tactical past 100 yards expect on an open range day this Sunday?

Having kept up with this thread for a while, I agree.

Not sure if I share your confidence in my abilities, but thanks for the motivation.

Still not sure if I can make but I'm <span style="font-weight: bold">really</span> getting the itch to see how far I can shoot (<span style="font-style: italic">and hit the target</span>).

Anyone driving out from Pittsburgh?

 

[turbo54]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Ship Ahoy:

On any given day at TVP, there will be many long range buffs that would be glad to get you acquainted with the range, dialing your scope and other fundamental marksmanship skills.

Bring lots and lots and lots of ammo (at LEAST 100rnds/day), and a notebook or data book to keep notes.

You'll have a blast. Do it!

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Hey Wade,

If I bring my own steel plate sunday, can Lou and I set it up at a mile and shoot it with the 50 cals?

 

[Skigolfmike]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Ship Ahoy - I built an SPS Tactical for my son who's an E3 in the Navy. It's shoots well to 1K. It was definitely a budget build. The Houge Stock was replaced with B&C Medalist, I have a Bushnell 3200 Elite Tactical on it and a Harris bipod. I will bring it Sunday. You'll do just fine. Hope to see you there.

That's the same as my rifle. 10x Bushnell 3200 Elite, Timney trigger, Harris bipod and a H-S stock.

Hope I can make it.

Yea that's fine Byron just get there a little early so you can set it up, and make sure to get it before you leave.

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Will be up Sunday for open range day.

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

What time does the open range start. What is the cost of the open range. What type of targets do I need to bring. First time going in information would be greatly appreciated

10am
30$ for non members, 20$ for members... membership is 50$
no need for any targets, there are steel plates from 150 to 1000y and 1 at 1 mile

if u need to zero the gun at 100y, then bring a paper target for that...

bring a cooler of food and drinks....

 

[Skigolfmike]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Nevermind Ring covered it.

Also, suggest you bring bug spray and sun screen.

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Are the ticks still bad ?

 

[Skigolfmike]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Ticks are a non issue if you are prepared.

 

[Ring]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

not "as" bad now, if shooting from the bench, but if u go up on the hills, bring DEET

 

[Breeze260]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

If you are coming to the night shoot and need to confirm zero be here at 8 if not be here no later than 9... No white lights, red lens please...
Thanks

 

[triceratops3]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Never been to the paper shoot and was thinking about going out tomorrow.

Could someone explain to me how its run? and also, around what time is it usually over?

thanks.

 

[dixie3bass]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

How does the 1000 and mile wok tomorrow, how many rounds does one need?

 

[Breeze260]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Like benchrest... you sit at the bench, shoot some sighters on clay then put 5 on paper for group and score. Do that 3 time for aggregate. Depends on how many show up to how fast it goes, hope this helps.

 

[triceratops3]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Thanks Wayde, that does help. I appreciate it but some family stuff came up so I couldn't make it out today. Maybe ill be out tomorrow.
