Re: Utah Hiders?

Another FNG reporting to the Hide (me). I've seen quite a few of the posts for the SLC area...any of you from further north like cache valley or ogden?

I don't have anything amazing for a boom stick but I enjoy shooting and am learning alot from the forums, mostly that I suck and need to practice but i sure do enjoy it.

So from up north nice to meet you all.

Re: Utah Hiders?

Also up north, S. Ogden. Tracking...

I'm just a little north of you over here in Centerville. We have a 600 yard range up by the "V". You might want to check up on that range by clicking on the hyper-text.

Yeah I have been up there. It is nice unless there is someone who wants to shoot a bit closer than you. Ind of an odd layout.

Re: Utah Hiders?

Anyone out there interested in a precision marksmanship clinic at the North Springs Shooting Range June 9, 2012?

I put on practical precision matches on the second Saturday of the month. This year I cut back to every other month to give some of us a little break. Now I'm getting bored, so trying to fill in a bit.

This clinic would go over basic principles of marksmanship. Give anyone the opportunity to get it down right and then go on to the next step. More experienced shooters would spend more time working out and confirming their dope (elevation and windage adjustments).

Most shooters would probably be getting out to 1000 yards. You would need a scope that adjusts out that far. Elevation adjustments and or mil dots - grid lines.

Let me know if there is interest.

cost would be $10 or $15 per shooter. That includes range fee and targets.

Re: Utah Hiders?

I would be interested for sure! It's always good to learn from new teachers. Is there a gear list?

 

[Utah Shooter]

Re: Utah Hiders?

Sounds fun to me. Where is that range located?

These basic marksmanship skills work with any firearms or student skill level.

So bring any guns and equipment. The idea was to be a longer distance clinic so bring any rifle that you want to shoot 100 to 1000 yards. Or a rifle scope combination that doesn't get out that far if that's all you got.

I can have handouts, chronograph, computer programs with printer and anything else I'll think of.

I taught one guy who got out to 1000 yards with his vintage military rifle with iron sights.

So a person can bring any front or rear rests, computer programs, note taking stuff, at least 50 rounds ammo (100 would be better). Eyes and ears. As it gets closer I'm sure I can make a better list.



<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Utah Shooter</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Sounds fun to me. Where is that range located?</div></div>

North Springs Shooting Range is 15 miles South West of Price, Ut. Take highway 10 straight South toward Huntington for about 5 miles, turn right at the sign "North Springs Recreation Area", after about 5 more miles turn right again at the North Springs sign, another 5 miles or so you turn right again at the North Springs sign.

Any more question just ask.

[DesertMonkey]

Re: Utah Hiders?

I would also be interested.

 

[NeTo]

Re: Utah Hiders?

I would be interested as well

 

[desertratdad]

Re: Utah Hiders?

I'll go ahead and post it on the tactical competition section for that date.

[desertratdad]

Re: Utah Hiders?

If any of you guys care to get email updates each month from Utah Shootouts, just email me and I'll put you on the list. It will keep you updated of what coming up. It's a long drive from SLC area to Price area but sometimes it's worth it.

The Utah State Sniper Shoot in Sept is about 1/4 filled up.

There's been several people interested in the clinic on June 9 so I'll be there for sure.

Re: Utah Hiders?

Can anybody provide some directions to the range at Grantsville? I've heard it's there but can't find any decent directions.

thanks in advance.

 

[Situation Normal]

Re: Utah Hiders?

The family and I just relocated down here from Washington, and was wondering if there is anywhere local Ogden/Layton/Clearfield area to get some 100 to 300 yard shooting in? Anyone have any ideas?

 

[mrjimsfc]

Re: Utah Hiders?

Well, there's a range up Ogden Canyon near the town of Liberty. There's a range near the Animal Control facility in Fruit Heights just east of Layton. There's this one just a bit further south that goes all the way out to 600 yards.

 

[mrjimsfc]

Re: Utah Hiders?

Desertratdad: You could have warned me that I work in the same office as your son Aaron.

 

[desertratdad]

Re: Utah Hiders?

I'm sorry

 

[Situation Normal]

Re: Utah Hiders?

Thanks Jim. Now that Centerville Small Arms is open again I'm going to have to make way there to check it out. I remember a place up the canyon in Liberty that I shot at a couple of times back in the early 90's. It was an informal place that charged $5 or so; payable on the honor system. If I remember right, it was somewhere below Powder Mountain. Does this sound like the same place? I'm unsure where the animal control facility is in Fruit Heights, but I'll check it out this weekend too.

 

[mrjimsfc]

Re: Utah Hiders?

I guess they call it the Davis County Rifle Range. It's straight up 200 No. in Kaysville, across the Mountain Road (Highway 89), turn left and go up the hill to the range.

 

[din]

Re: Utah Hiders?

new guy from SLC. just getting started with the research aspect of things, no precision rifle to call my own yet.

 

[Judgmentday]

Re: Utah Hiders?

From Sandy myself, Desertdad, I would be interrested in the June North Springs clinic provided my USO scope comes in time.

Re: Utah Hiders?

New to the Hide but enjoyed the March shoot at North Springs. After that i could use some pointers. Its a long drive from Logan but I'd be down for a day trip on June 9th to join the party Desertratdad. Put me on the email list for events if you have one. [email protected]. Thanks.

Re: Utah Hiders?

For those of you who want to shoot somewhere along the Wasatch Front, try Centerville or the Utah Rifle & Pistol Assn .

You're not the only one. I just shot the April shoot, and had my backside handed to me. It was a great time, but have a lot to learn now.

I'm coming down to Cedar City this weekend (aug. 2-4) and am wondering if there are any good places to shoot down there? I don't have an AICS, but I'd love to hook up with someone down there as a shooting buddy. I'm kinda new to this sport and need someone to show me the ropes.

Thanks.

 

[reximus]

Re: Utah Hiders?

I'm in SLC. New to the sport, but was addicted from my first longrange 'ting' on the steel.

Looking for people to shoot with and show me the ropes...

 

[Rhys]

Re: Utah Hiders?

There is a pretty decent range out of Cedar. Paper to 300, and some assorted steel out to 1000 if someone hasn't shot the chains again.

PM me we might be able to set something up.

 

[KohldBoer]

Re: Utah Hiders?

'Nuther newbie, here in Utah.
Just getting started in long range shooting, gathering gear and learning a lot just going through all the posted information here. Looking forward to shooting soon!

 

[reximus]

Re: Utah Hiders?

Let me know when you're ready to go out. I'm fairly new too, but I always love a new shooting buddy! Long range stuff is a lot more fun if you have someone who enjoys it to shoot with.

 

[dbasian1977]

Re: Utah Hiders?

Central Utah here, good old Aurora I have about 20 steels and would love to set up a shoot down here for something in August. Let me know if your in and we will try to get a date set. Duke

Re: Utah Hiders?

In Layton, anything going on anytime soon (Prior to the shoot in March down in Price?)

Ya'll need to look up Park City Precision Rifle in the Tac Matches Thread. They put on a great match about once a month.
