I didn't make it down there 'till after 3pm, so I missed most of you guys...

Got to meet SodaPop, and Jeff...
Can't remember any other names though...

One thing I will say...

If I was a "badguy", I sure as hell wouldn't want to be within 500 yards of Mr. Pop.

5 holes center mass @ 500 yards with a "deer" gun is some serious shootin...

Really nice club too...
(Seemed a little "stuffy" on the scattergun side of the club though)
I'd really enjoy walking the clay course with a shotgun, count me in on the next shindig...

Right now Im trying to talk the wife into a Delaware camping<coughandshootingcough>trip...

See you guys soon...

I thought that was funny as hell...

Seems some of the "stuffy" folks found their way to the rifle range too...

The guy with the camo bolt gun on the end bench kept getting pissed because others were shooting while he was trying to concentrate...

I also saw the guy get the brass down the back of his shirt...
Funny as hell...

You won't find guys like that at my range...

The only three things you will find in the trash cans at my club is peppered targets, empty shells and beer cans...

I've seen that guy at the range just about every other time I go. For some reason he didn't seem to recognize me. He really was pretty pissed yesterday. I wonder if his wife kicked him out of the house or something. He was a really nice guy every other time I talked to him.

The peppering incedent really wasn't My fault. That guy was actually violating the "Crossfire Rules" at the range. He was shooting across 3 lanes and not directly in front of him. I was shooting directly in front of me. And directly under his targets. Too bad My gun was sighted in at 200yds. I sure shot the hell out of his targets

Forgot to mention...

I'm havin a shoot at my club up here in Reading on Sunday, May 19th...
Noon 'till ???

No B.S., No cocky "benchrest" attitudes...

I go to this club to shoot, not to stand around and talk about guns...


Club President and I are good friends...

Full auto, and full mag bumpfiring has been OK'd just for the shoot...

If you bring any Class3 stuff, be smart and bring your form4 just to cover your ass...
If you have anything illegal, leave it at home...

Total cost will be $10 per person for the whole day...

I've got a thread started at AR15.com and AK-47.net with all the details...

For directions, go to: mapquest.com

Club address is:


Daniel Boone Rod & Gun Club
301 Dautrich Rd.
Reading, PA 19606

Any questions, email me at:[email protected]

Hope to see you there !

ART

He might have been pissed because there were empty benches, but no empty targets around there at 100 yards and I asked if I could squeeze a target somewhere over there. I guess that he was never in combat if that distracted him. I could be totally wrong, though. Usually the guys who were good in combat aren't so serious.

there was huge piece of plywood all the way over to the right. He had plenty of room on that board. We had the whole center zone for the entire day.

Which guy was this, the one with the Camo Shooting jacket?

I moved my targets for him so we would not cross shoot on the plywood backer at 100 yds.

Or the other guy on the far right bench. He is there every time we shoot, always seems to be pissed that anyone else is there.

We need to talk with the management about shell blockers on the benches.

It was the guy with the 30/30 that I shot up his targets. I was actually aiming at some 3 inch orange sticker targets just below his. I shot up the bottom left corner of his target. He yelled "Someone peppered My targets". I managed to piss two people off at one time.


The guy all the way over to the right with the really long varmint scope was the guy that said "How much longer are you going ot shoot that thing" to me. And I said "are you getting hit with brass?"

He was like 6 tables down and I was smacking him upside the head with My brass.

You been hangin' with Dead too much

I showered that same guy with brass from my AR

What kind of sniper can he be if hot brass distracts him

BTW that levergun was a 45-70. Had ported barrels and a mean kick.
