More info.
Short range is 50yds with an assortment of paper and steel targets. Pistols only on the steel. Long range goes out to about 1200-1300 but we usually keep it under 1100. I set up various steel targets at various distances. I don't shoot anything bigger that 300mag at my steel. If you have steel targets you want to bring that would be awesome! If we do a night shoot you need a green chemlight to attach to yourself so we can keep track of who is on the line. Please be punctual. When we say we are about to head to a certain range, etc, don't dick around and make the rest of the guests wait on you. Everyone's safety is my main concern and I have no qualms about giving someone the boot. That's about it for now. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. |

I am thinking you are really close to my hunting grounds.
I hunt west of Mullen about five miles. I would like to come out if I can get away. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Is this an excuse not to go to cola warrior west??? Sure. You can be the one to chug a can of Coke and run down the pipeline to reset the steel target that my .300WM knocks off the hanger, and back up the hill of the pipeline  That's is of course, if I go |

If we can shoot 50BMG then I would up my membership. I just got a Steyr HS50 M1 to get into large caliber long range shooting, but I'm what you'd call a noob in this area. If there's gonna be some people around who can give me some pointers and help me get dialed in, I'll bring some extra ammo!

Actually, after having a pipeline guy come out so we could cross a dozer it turns out it's only a few inches deep in some places. I always thought it was way under there myself. Thus no 50 for that and other reasons. |

How about bringing some tannerite or something similar? I was thinking about putting it in 1 liter bottles and setting them out around 300 yards for the longer range shooters.
