MN CLONE SHOOT
When : July 16 2022 12:00 central Where : West branch gun club Princeton, MN We will meet prior to the range in town as the range owner will not allow any 'stranglers' and wants to give his brief one time. I suggest meeting at the BP gas station in Princeton around 1100. There will be a $15 charge per person attending Clone shoot. Please bring any folding tables, chairs and tents/canopies and snacks and water. If anyone wants to bring a small grill we can buy some stuff to throw on that also. Ill provide MREs to anyone interested. Also bring any steel plates or target stands if you have them, I have one steel plate with a stand. We will be in a machine gun pit, however if anyone wants to walk over to 100y range that should be fine, I'm sure the range owner will address that. If you have any questions or need any special requirements met PLEASE bring that up here or IM me ASAP. Thank you for everyone interested in coming. ETA - Traffic update for anyone traveling on 169 through elk river. There is construction going on @ hwy 10 and hwy 101 on the south end of elk river that has it at one lane and theres also construction on the north end that is also a single lane. Expect a little delay because people cant merge. There is also an event going on at ERX Motorpark the same weekend and I would expect a small delay with traffic there also. also - if possible after the clone shoot we may be able to go to another location for night shooting only if you run 100% suppressed or borrow a suppressed rifle while out there. |

Count me in, I might have 1 or 2 interesting guns I can bring. Just be prepared for @SecretSquirell trying to make us paint our rifles, lol

Is there a rough geographic location this will take place? Depending where it is will determine how likely I'll be able to attend.

View Quote Depending on how much interest there is and if we plan do to shoot at dusk, I have a couple spots in mind roughly 45 minutes north of the cities. If anyone else has ideas on venue please chime in and we can vote or something. |

That's not too bad. I'd have to drive up on a Friday afternoon/night.

I'm down. Weekends work best. I'm north of the cities and can help with setup depending on venue.

I'm up in the Northern suburbs and would be interested with a couple of my clone builds.
I even have tracer ammo to shoot if it's a night shoot and it's permitted. Thanks. |

Depends when obviously but it's possible. If not, this is still a great idea and I look forward to pics of all the cool clones! |

Depending on the head count and also VERY dependent on how far people care to shoot will determine venue and also of night shooting will even be possible.
Currently the only night spot I have is on private land and not long range at all. Which normally is fine for night time stuff but might be lacking for day time. |

Of course I'm game. Let's figure out a range and then work on a date. I think July or August at the earliest would be the best, IMO. Just getting the time off and family trips out of the way. I'd prefer if we could lock down a range with some distance though as I'm seeing quite a few others with some 308's and what not. Also would be good if we could shoot NV.
I have a few steel targets I could bring as well. I'd be bringing the following. - M4 MRE - MK18 Mod 1 - MK 1.5 - Hk416 - MK12 Recce - M110K1 |

I'm still looking into a 300y range, not sure on price per person yet. The other range as either a 100m rifle range or a machine pit basically and they're 15 bucks a person. |

Philsbury in Brainerd is free public designated shooting area gravel pit could shoot up 100 yards. Or delton luth in st cloud. |

Quoted: The when will probably be July. The where is still being worked out. I have to go to a meeting at another local range but the day and night shoot at the same location isn't looking good. Near princeton though. View Quote |

I got a start on something to bring to the shoot. I had to paint for @SecretSquirell. I wrecked my truck last week so I don't how far I'll get in time for the shoot now. |

Looks great. Tough break on the truck though. Hopefully you can get that sorted.

If we can shoot for the 16th of July that would be great. The range will be north of Princeton, MN and I need to double check but I believe the range is 100m.
Expect a range fee of 15 bucks. Ill post more details asap. If anyone interested or able to attend could let me know that would be helpful. |
