<sitting in the corner like the kid that never gets picked in dodge ball> I'm working all available weekends in May. It's ok though. Gives me extra time to refinance the house to afford ammo.

 

[kyzim311]

looks like we are getting closer to the next range trip. Who is still in for either the 16th or 23rd?

 

[Plinker 73]

I could manage the 16th

 

[kyzim311]

Given how close the 16th and 23rd are, I am planning to just go one of the two unless there was significant interest in both. Looks like the 16th it is.

Is everyone just going to meet there or someplace else and ride share ?

 

[hollowoutadime]

I may meet you out there the 16th, but it'll be a short stint for me. Managing painters on a house.

We had just met there, I am thinking you are a decent ways south of me so not sure if it is a big benefit.

 

[Plinker 73]

I am due east of Dayton so will be coming across I 70 if that helps. Otherwise i will try to be there around 9:30.

Just checked the map . Longer trip than i thought so may be a little later than expected.

I don't cross I70, so we can plan just to meet there. If it was anything like last time it will not be busy

Sounds good to me

 

[Plinker 73]

Sorry guys i have to beg out for tomorrow. Something has come up i cant get out of and t
here is no way i can go shoot for a while and get back in time. My apologies, hopefully next time.
Rad

 

[kyzim311]

Well hopefully next time. I will probably not go either unless there is someone else going? I know hollowoutadime is busy anyhow

I am really sorry. Sometimes life just gets in the way of fun.

 

[kyzim311]

Alright gentlemen, hopefully all of you have been well. We are about a week and a half for the June 19th planned trip. Thought I would send out a reminder and double check to see if that date is still looking good. Its fathers day weekend so everyone should have a good excuse at least, whether it works or not is a different matter.

 

[opeagle]

I’m not sure if I can make that. However do carry on with it.

 

[kyzim311]

Anyone else?

 

[Plinker 73]

Unfortunatly as much as i was looking forward to shooting with all of you something has come up and i will be out of the picture for most of the summer. This saddens me deeply since i was looking to learn a lot on this trip. If things get better later maybe a trip this fall will work out . Hope everyone has a great time and summer.

Anyone going to TVP today?

 

[kyzim311]

Anyone going to TVP today?

I wish.

 

[Sincerd]

Hey, you guys all miss it? Let get a range day together.

Tvp or BR

 

[Plinker 73]

I would be in depending on date. Sorry I couldn’t make the last one but am healed up now.
Rad

 

[kyzim311]

I am in for TVP, not sure what BR is?

 

[DoctorBen]

I’d be down for TVP, but I’ve got to let a ski related fracture heal first.
Where’s BR?

 

[hollowoutadime]

Briar Rabbit.
Zanesville.

Briar Rabbit | Ohio's Premiere Shooting Facilityy

www.briarrabbit.com

I'm myself out next few weeks but when I make it I might have some extra powder for those in need.

 

[kyzim311]

The information I am finding for Briar Rabbit makes TVP much more appealing to me.
TVP open range : $30 for the day per shooter, steel at lots of ranges from 200 yards-1 mile
Information I found on Briar Rabbit: 540 yard max, $10 and hour, bring your own targets.

 

[long range sponge]

Long time no see kids. Lots has happened. How's May 1st work for anyone else? I know it's a Sunday but my lil man, nieces and nephews have baseball on Saturdays.

 

[kyzim311]

I can make May 1st work, but I probably have the most flexible schedule

 

[DoctorBen]

I’ll pencil in May 1; barring my leg not being healed. Park City got me man…

May one looks good right now. I have a lot going this spring but will try this.

As long as you're under 250 I'll give you a piggy-back ride from the car/truck to the bench. Lol.

 

[DoctorBen]

Hahahahaha.
225; broke my proximal fib a few days back skiing the end of the season in park city.
I can hobble. Out for 4-6 weeks. We’ll see how it is in a few.

I’ll bring my desert tech SRS A2 in 6.5 Creedmoor and 338LM

Have a Remington 700 in 308 too.

And a bunch of other stuff.

I’ll try and bring a posse; see if we can do some coordination fire at the mile target, just because.

 

[kyzim311]

Good news at TVP is you wouldn't have to hobble far, you can back up very close to the benches.
I would be bringing my 300 PRC and 7 WSM (which is in my profile pic). Both are mile capable, so I can add to the mile target volley fire.
I also have a 6mm GT that needs tried out as some distance, maybe 1-2 others might make the trip.

 

[long range sponge]

I hope to have my MWS set up by then. I'll probably bring my LMT with 224 Valk and 223 barrels. May tote the 6.5 RPR and sling a few at the long gong.

 

[Sincerd]

Hey, anywhere in ohio let you draw/movement or have 3 gun type courses?

 

[long range sponge]

We still on for May 1st? Also, who wants to meet up and try the Head Hunter with me??

 

[Sincerd]

I'll go. Whats everyone brining? Mws crew?

 

[kyzim311]

I am still in for the 1st, I have never tried a head hunter but we can discuss it. As of right now myself and a co-worker will be coming, and I have 4 rifles coming with me. Here are 3 (7 WSM, 300 PRC and 224 valk). 6 GT will also be coming. Not sure if there is any interest in car pooling?

 

[DoctorBen]

I’m planning on the 1st; bringing my DTA SRS A2 in 6.5 Creedmoor and 338 LM.

 

[Plinker 73]

I’m planning on coming if i can get some ammo loaded. Everything is working against that right mow. I will bring the MK 13 MOD 7 A 308 REM. And maybe an AR 10 in 308

Ohio is a pretty big state.

Which portion/corner of the state are you in?

Short answer yes, many places do.

 

[long range sponge]

Not sure if there is any interest in car pooling?

I live in Springfield which is just northeast of Dayton. I could pick up a few folks.

I was more gauging interest with it being on the east side of the state. 2+ hours for a lot of us.

Central

Right. That's the same boat I'm in, roughly 2 hours-ish. I was volunteering to play chauffeur. I can fit 3 comfortably in my Explorer.

With all my shooting crap, I can fit 3 comfortably and number 4 is possible but not ideal. My vehicle (Honda passport) will be making the trip, I just have an open seat if someone wanted a ride

 

[kyzim311]

Looks like we might have to deal with a little rain. Not a biggy cause the benches are covered.

 

[long range sponge]

Well, once again, I'm out. Father-in-law just got admitted (talks of ICU) for congestive heart failure. My wife's brother died last month and she's a fucking mess. I don't want to be out of town right now.

From now on I'm not making/announcing plans. I figure I'll just randomly show up.

 

[Plinker 73]

Not sure i want a 7-8 hour drive to spend the day dealing with thunder storms and rain at my age. I may bow out for this time sorry. Maybe make it another day or like long range sponge just do a random day. Thanks anyway guys.

 

[kyzim311]

I will be there with or without the meetup this weekend, I want to test out my 6 GT a bit.

 

[long range sponge]

If possible, get some video. I'd like to see how it performs. Prefer to see it in person, buuuut...
