What to bring........

pdmoderator & others,
I posted in an earlier thread where the club is located. Check it out and see if you understand the directions. I am bringing down my two 12 gauges that take 2 3/4 inch shells. If you want you can pick up some skeet shot shells. If you want you can pick up a box of clays. In pistols, I will bring down:

my 9mm Beretta, 9mm S&W 3913, my S&W model 10 .38 revolver, my Colt Trooper Mark V in .357 mag., my S&W model 22a semi-automatic .22, my S&W model 18 revolver .22, my Rossi .44 special revolver, My Beretta minx .22 short semi-automatic.

I have a hard time finding .44 special so if you can aquire some of that it would be appriciated. Anything else is up to you so you choose what you want to bring and what you don't. Bring down what you want to eat and drink since there is nothing to buy there, or I figured we would order some food and drink once we all got there. Any other questions feel free to ask. Looking forward to meeting you!

Are you bringing somebody? confused: Rovert is.

All most forgot.........

Also, since there is no range fee, donations to the club for range and facility use will be appriciated. Looks like we are going to have a good group of TFLers.

So far we have:

Quote:
Sunday
Cloudy in the morning...then showers likely in the afternoon. A chance of thunderstorms late in the afternoon. Continued warm with highs in the upper 60s. South wind 15 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 60 percent.
Are you going to reschedule the shoot?

Thanks,

Ray, FYI, I just picked up 5 boxes of Winchester 12ga 1oz #8 lead shot tonight, so that gives us 125 rounds to shoot at the 2 cases of pigeons I have to go with it.

Let us know about the weather, and if we're going to reschedule.

Range review......

We all had a great time and the weather cooperated. We had a total of 6 TFLers show up and 4 regular gun club members and I know for a fact that the day couldn't have been nicer. Rovert has the digital camera pictures that he will post and I have the regular pictures that I will try to get scaned onto this sight. To all other TFLers out there that didn't come, you missed a really great time to meet fellow TFLers! We all worked together and the whole thing went off without a hitch. It was just too bad that we ran out of time and day light. It was an honor to shoot with such safety minded individuals on such an unregulated range. I don't think I saw one major violation the whole day! I look forward to shooting with all of the TFLers who showed up today again. I think we all have to work on our skeet shooting abilities though!

Ray, I also had a great time, and look forward to the next meeting when we can shoot some guns, and shoot the breeze.

As to skeet marksmanship, I'm 100%... all mine broke when they hit the ground. Speaking just for myself, I think I'd have hit more pigeons with a boomerang.

That is a Great place for Pistol Shooting! I have to get my front sight filed down or rob a bank and get sights put on my .45. I didn't shoot very well but I had fun busting Clays with my Ruger Single Six. I could have shot for 4 more hours.

Do you guys want to have a Bolt Action Rifle Gathering or just just a plane old Rifle Shoot next? Maybe in Mid-January we can get together?

Its $15 for non members like you guys

Geoff when are you going to become a member at W&W?

I'm all for a Bolt action/ Lever Action Fest. I only have a Marlin 22Mag and a Model 70 but I could have fun all day with them.

Well we could make it in early January if everyone wants to have it sooner?

Next time I go up I will probably join. Trying to decide if the combo membership is worth it or just go for Rifle. If I do join I will have to make it there at least once a month

Now all I have to do is find a , er , friend who lives nearby like Dead

January is OK, bring your woolies!

Why don't you just pitch a tent? Then you won't have to drive back the same day. We could hold a camp TFL. Are there any Bed Wetters here? You can't sleep over if you are

K80Geoff,

You might want to check out some other ranges also. Cherry Ridge (Vernon, NJ) comes to mind.

Best deals on practice ammo?

Hi, all,

Since we have all these NJ folks in one virtual place... what's the best deal you've found on practice ammo within the Garden Apartment State?

I'm looking for decent 9mm and .45 ACP FMJ factory ammo, and am willing to buy in bulk to save money and avoid bother.

Thanks,
- pdmoderaotr.

Have you looked on the net? I'm told you can get good prices for practice stuff at www.ammodeal.com but I'm sure there are many others like them.

Ammoman

The way I read that is that he does not SHIP to NJ I thought one could pick-up at the warehouse and call ahead. He lists 2 addresses, 1 in Mt.Laurel and 1 in West Berlin. As I said, I never tried him but it would be interesting to order and then pick-up at the warehouse. Quantrill
