View Full Version : 1/26 or 1/27
Is anybody going out shooting this weekend? I just picked up a bunch of bowling pins and want to get out.
I'd like too. That being said, I'll have to see what the status of My broken truck is.
al_g mention that He would like to go. Maybe He'll check in on it.
Where you looking to shoot at?
No idea. I haven't been out shooting on public land since I got here in 06 and I have no idea where anywhere to shoot is. Hopefully somewhere not too far cause gas is expensive.
I've only been here since July, so don't ask me where the good spots are [LOL]
From Westy just go 36 through Boulder to Lyons, When you get through town, The road splits. Turn left, onto 7. Keep going west on 7 for about 15-20 miles, somewhere in the range anyway, Look for an emergency call box on the south side of the road. Don't worry if You miss it. about 200 yrds down the road, it "t's" that is 72. Just turn around and head back. At the call box, on the north side of the road from it, You walk up the hill and that is the spot We go to.
... Of course, IF, one of You had enough room for Me and a couple of guns, I'd be more than happy to point the way.

How many guns? (Do I need to leave my back seat in the garage?)

[AR15]I'm gonna try to get to the north site this weekend. Looks like Sunday would be the best bet. Hopefully around 11 or so. AR, couple o' pistols. Hope to see ya there, haven't had the pleasure of laying into a bowling pin yet. Where did you get them?
Bob
I definitely want to make it to the North site sometime soon. I only own a few pistols at the moment, so i'm not sure it's worth the drive just to plink with a few Glock's? Would love to see some AR's in action and learn about them from you guys, i want to build one sometime this year :)
Weather this weekend looks like it's going to be nice, albeit windy.
I had something come up at the last moment here, So I'm not sure I can Make it either day.
I may try again Next week.

I am going to try and make it up there about the same time. I'll bring a case of pins, never shot one myself so this should be fun.

No problem with the directions you gave and an atlas I should be able to get there.

Well, things better this morning. Looks like it will be pretty windy, but mid 40's to 50, so I am going to give it a shot (pun intended). Not going to bring a bunch for this trip...be there around 11. [Walk]

Hey roman gnome, when were you guys up there? Me and a couple of friends were up there yesterday morning. We saw some other folks down at the other range, wondering if that was you.

Hah! Looking at your pictures, the one of you shooting your revolver has a picture of our dinger plate in the background! You guys WERE the other shooters there yesterday!
Great day for fun in the sun!

Looks like fun. What kind of rifle are you shooting?
roman gnome

DeltaKilo, that was us. We pulled up as you guys were setting up your plate stand.
That thing looked [beefy]! Didn't think anybody from the site was gonna be there ,or we would have walked up and said hey!
Nice to almost meet you.[Beer]
Hey Will how you been?
That's a Winchester #70 in 300 Win mag that I recently got.
I really like it, alot. Can't wait to upgrade the glass on it and see what it can do.[Twist]

Well, did make it to the north end today. Temp was ok, but too much wind. Ends up there were 4 of us. Met Shag there, another guy had a nice mp5 and a cool steel target. Number 4 showed up shortly before I left, did not talk to him much. I was pleased with my new scope. Although too windy to do any fine tweaking it was hitting pretty good after doing a benchtop barrel sighting for it's initial settings. (Shag thanks for letting me take shots at your bowling pins. Those things are tough.) My red dot let me down again. I love it but it's useless on bright days. Shot about 200 rds .223, 100 rds of 22lr with my Ciener kit. Ruger GP100 was awesome as usual, and my S&W .38 Airweight CC pistol was ok fun. Really looking forward to nice days and setting up a table. Got about 80 rounds cleaned up/ re-sized/loaded. Gotta buy more bullets tomorrow to finish the rest. Hope to be back next weekend, will have to see what the weather brings.
Peace![Beer]

Do get Mondays off now and again.[Beer]
