Ok, just so I don't go to the wrong place. We don't turn in at the normal range driveway? We look for Charlies personal driveway?

Thanks!

That is correct. Turn down the drive marked 2795 Owl Hollow Rd. If you are coming from Lewisburg Pike it's the first drive on the left before the main range.

went to the range today, met Charlie (owner). great guy and nice outdoor range, which I prefer. Went ahead and joined the range, probably the best $40 dollars I've spent in a while. Shot 150 rounds in the pistol pit and had a blast. Met several nice folks with some really nice weapons just wish I had taken more ammo.

Anyway, for those of you that haven't been to this range before it's really nice and fairly well laid out. should be a blast.

Charlie is the coolest guy. My church shoots out there about once a month and he doesn't charge anything. He is as nice as a guy can be.

How is it laid out? What sort of distances for rifle is there? And what about targets stands? Are there benches with seats, etc?

Don't know about the private side, but the main range is laid out fairly simply. Everything is under roof with benches for the 100 yrd side and smaller becnhs for the rest of the range. There are fixed target stands and everything is provided. Half the range is 25 yrds with the 50 behind it and the other half is 100 yrd. Targets (lots and varied), staplers, range scopes, rest, ect are all provided. Granted they aren't the best but they are provided and workable. Charlie even brings a cooler out and puts bottled water in it during the hot days. Great place.

what Smith said but I'd suggest bringing your own paper targets to staple to the target stands. I didn't see any extra's laying around and the ones downrange were really shot up. But then again I never really got out of the pistol pit.

There's stacks of all kinds of targets in the little building about midway down the range. There is also extra hearing and eye protection.

For you Magpul Dynamics fans, I'll bring some of my BSA targets for use on the private range.

I can also bring some bottled water for the group.

I would suggest small targets for the private side. With so many shooters we will need to share backboards. There are lots of sites to print targets. I'll be on the lookout for zombie printable targets and post a link.

Anybody got any Zombie targets to bring? TGO David brought them on Halloween one year and they were a big hit.

I have some I can bring.

I really wish we could make it to this but we'll be out of town that weekend. :)

Maybe we can do another in November. I don't mind the cold all that much.

If you have a firearm to sell bring it and let folks see it. I know it's tough to sell anything these days. I'll setup a table to put for sale items on.

Count me in! I'm new here, and this would be a great chance to meet a bunch of fine folks. I'm a member at CHMR, but I've never been "up the hill" to the other range, so this should be fun.

I'll bring my CZ452 Trainer rifle in .22LR. Anybody is welcome to shoot it.

What still needs to be brought? Food? Drinks? Supplies?

I'm building an EBR too. Should have the Daniel Defense parts kit in today and got the Spike's lower in Yesterday. If you plan to shoot skeet bring a box or two of clay pigeons. I got a couple boxes at Walmart, but Dick's Sporting good store and academy should have them too.
