North Wolf Creek Grand Reopening

[Mike Johnson]

I think you only got me and @fzylogic on it. I'm cool, all you can see is my derrière.

lol, hey I might cruise up there early this saturday

 

[David C]

I'll be there. Not sure where we want put the info booth but I will have tables and canopy as well. I got the NWFA banner from Joe today as well. If we are having a get together we might as well set your stuff up at the top so we have the longest range to use.

What time will this start?

Now I know where I want to go this weekend to have some fun.

Excellent. The next get together will be on 8/27. @Cogs will post a new thread in the event section soon and we'll move the discussion there.

We will do our usual clean up in the morning 9-11 and then lunch followed by target shooting.

Our usual needs are barbeque stuff (burgers, buns, condiments, water, hot dogs, etc). We usually have tables and canopies covered but extra chairs are good. Then also bring something to shoot, acceptable targets (steel gongs, paper targets, etc) and plenty of water since it will probably be warm.

I went up last Sunday and the new sites are fantastic. I really hope that we can all work to keep them maintained and clean. We used site #3 and were sure to take our brass, trash and targets and the very little bit of others that was lying around when we arrived.

I am not sure I can make the 8/27 event, but I certainly will try. Having an outdoor, accessible location to shoot is worth the effort and time. Thanks to all of those that have worked on the previous clean-up and improvement projects for these sites.

Snapped a couple pics, it was a beautiful day to shoot!

I am going to head out there tomorrow (7-30-16) morning to do some plinking, if anyone wants to join or hang out, a buddy of mine is supposed to show up as well, I'm thinking a bout getting there around 830

 

[FordPrefect]

@Mike Johnson, I'd love to be out there tomorrow morning but I need to get some load workups done. I'll probably be out there next weekend trying them out.

I need to try out my new xdm 40cal I was thinking of going to the rock pit over by Browns camp but wasn't sure if it's still open for shooting but now that I see this new shooting area I think I'll go there.

 

[Mike Johnson]

I was out there this morning, all by myself at #4 for about an hour, then some guys showed up shooting clays, and another guy brought a cool gong, looked like he built the setup, it was about 5-6 feet off the ground. I told them about NF , nice people. It was also clean, but I'm not sure how long that berm is going to last ,

 

[coyoteman5]

I was up there this morning in the number one spot it was roughly a little before 9 o'clock when I got up there. It's a very nice spot everything was clean a little bit of brass on the ground nothing much I wish i would have known ahead of time that there is no place to hang your target Next time I'll bring my own. I'll fab one or two up at work. Sometimes it comes in handy working at a metal shop and running a waterjet machine.

Looks good.

Remember. Clays are biodegradable. They will disappear over time.

What are the little yellow flags in your actions? Sorry for the newbie Q...

empty chamber indicator. So you know from looking at it that it is empty. good for a busy range so you know the state of your gun right away

Thanks! On the list...

I try to step on them real good and grind them a little. Helps the process along. Otherwise they are pretty much just clay, like the berms at these sights. Plus some non toxic coloring.
