Howdy,

Moved into town- north of Casper- a few months back and I'm looking to expand my meager local social base. Aside from a few forums, I don't do social media, and I'm a stay-at-home dad, so it can be a challenge. I've been in contact with Natrona County Patriots and will get involved with them as my schedule permits.

Anyone in the area up for shooting and training- whether on our own or at the range? Or just hiking and bar visits?

Hey there, I'm up in Sheridan. That isn't super close, but we have a pretty actively group that shoots 2 or 3 times a week. Doing some low/no light training tomorrow night.

I don't mind the drive up there at all.

View Quote Righteous. I can shoot on my property up to about 200m and have a variety of steel. I'm still looking for a convenient, semi-local place for long range shooting, though.

I'm picky: I want a trail somewhat parallel to the direction of fire so I can drop my plates off downrange. Largest is 140 lbs. I can only carry that one so far. The IDPA plates aren't bad at all. I don't think I'll have any problem finding something I like. Just need time to get out and scout.
