Do you Guys Want to Get Together as A group and Do some Shooting   New Link SAFER SHOOT SUNDAY OCTOBER 31 |

Hey Rob, AnnieO and I can't make it, as we will be on Vacation. Also, you may not have caught it, but a large number of our WI group just went through the Defensive Edge Tactical Carbine I & II course this weekend. I won't speak for them, but we just might be "shot out" for a couple of weeks. Lord knows we're close to dry on ammo... |
The only place close I have Been shooting at is Deerfield Pistol And Only Hand guns And that was a couple of months ago. I usually Shoot My Black rifles In Northern MN . I have Only shot my black Rifles Several Times in WI and That Was over 5 years ago And the Range Masters Had Rules like 1 shot every 10 seconds. I am Thinking Of Joining The stoughton Shooting range Its Fairly Close. |
You should think about joining the Deerfield Rod & Gun club if you already shoot at the Pistol range in town. The R&G club is just North of Deerfield off of BB (I think). They have a modest 100 yard rifle range and 25 yard pistol range, plus two trap fields. Membership is $35 for the year, Jan-Jan. I don't get on ar15.com nearly as much as I use to, so if a Madison-local event comes up can somone email me? Thanks. |
Gettin dry on ammo? No way! But I did order 2 more cases of XM193 from ammoman.  Not shot out at all, either, but I can't make it. Wish I had time to take Carbine III while the rest of this is still fresh. Unless the southern part of the state has a mild winter it's probably about over for me until spring. The deer hunters will be occupying the local range pretty steadily until snow flys up here and after that it's closed because the snowmobile trail runs thru it! |

Tommy, all, How about an WI members dinner? There is a great resteraunt in Johnson Creek called Highway Harry's. It is a little dressy, but the food is outstanding. It is also smack between Milwaukee and Madison, so we should be able to get most everyone from the southern part of the state over there without a lot of muss and fuss, on a semi regular basis. I also hereby propose an annual WI members dinner/party in Wisconsin Dells. Central location for everyone in WI and we can just rent a small convention room at one of the nice hotels, get rooms, and have food/beverages catered. Funded by dividing the total costs for dinner and drinks among the number of pre-registered participants. Would be a nice dinner outing for significant others as well. Thoughts? |
WI shoot - can't this weekend have Judicious Use of Deadly Force at Heritage  Dinner - would be sweet - I don't know how long JUDF is going to run though, so this weekend may not be good. Our next SAFER shoot is going to be Sunday the 31st of October, in the afternoon, at the Yellowstone Lake range (about an hour SW of Madison). Would you guys like to meet up with us for that? I'd be game for dinner afterwards and we may likely have some people who would be cool with it too. There are a couple good restaurants in the Mt Horeb area - one restaurant/bar I liked was called the "Grumpy Troll" or something like that. I also like the idea of a WI Dells convention - we could probably even swing a midwest thing, get some speakers and crap if we wanted to go all out. I'll put up another post announcing it so people can see it. http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=8&f=21&t=186764&page=1www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=8&f=21&t=186764&page=1 |
Sounds like an excellent idea. |
I have to look at my work schedule, and I will arrange with Ray to use the group list for notifications and stuff then.......I would like to do a local dinner ASAP, within the next two weeks. |
