I will be setting up the 100 yard target going to try some different paper anybody have something they want to shoot bring me a copy and we will try it next month..Looking for some fun/game target, like cards or something...
planning on about 20-25 rounds at 100 yard, we can play with the round count...

I'd like to get in on this! Can someone send me directions to the range? Is there a possibilty of getting picked up at the airport if I fly in?

I think I got some card targets, I'll have to find them.

There are directions on the website, www.utahshootouts.com click on North Springs Shooting Range. I think the link is working to get to Carbon County website with info about the range too.

I'm sure we can get you picked up from the airport in Price. It is technically an airport anyway. Price is a small town. You would have to find out what the conditions were etc.

Will be heading for Price in a few hours. Several people have said they are going to be there.

We may not be the "chosen" frozen, but frozen just the same. Only the running man targets are snowed in so we'll still have plenty to shoot.

Re: Utah Shootouts - Snow Shoot - Jan. 8

Just got back from the range. Have been working out the bugs on the reactive targets we were shooting at the 400 yard line. The ones that were supposed to turn the lights on. Got one built that worked every shot today. But with the sun shining right at the 55 watt halogen fog light, it wasn't as bright as I would like.

We had only 7 shooters yesterday. But they were awesome. We did the 100 yard c/b, 4 shot on 4 silhouettes, 10 shot Israeli sniper hostage (downsized) and a 5 shot sitting target.

Then went to the 600 yard range. Took one shot each at the 3,4,5, and 600 yd steel. Nobody missed any shots.

Then took a shot at the 400 yard swinging that set off a horn and was supposed to turn a light on, which the wire came off of. The other target got destroyed on the first shot. As I said it's working good now.

Then did a 5 shot group at the 1000 yd paper. After scoring that we took another 5 shot group at the 1000 yard. Robert sent me some pictures of the best groups, but I can't seem to be able to load them in my computer.

I got to unload my truck from a ton of steel and stuff I'm working on and find the scores. I have the 1000 yd targets here too i might have to take some more pictures of and try to get them up here. There were 3 or 4, 5 shot groups that were under about 10 inches.

So by tomorrow night I should be able to have some scores up on the website.
