Let's see who we have in the area and where you are.  This could be a catalyst for like-minded people getting together and doing some blasting.

I live in Summerville, just above Charleston on I26.

I'm from Rutherfordton, NC.  I'm currently pimping myself out to the .mil folks in  beautiful Kandahar, Afghanistan.  
The plan right now is to come home for a little R&R in October.  Maybe I can get my Girlfriend's Dad to let us use his hunting lodge for a little shindig when I'm home.

I suppose telling you to keep your head down and check six would be a tad redundant.  Thanks for your service to our nation, and come home safely.  We're all behind you.

there is a state park range (unregulated, no RO's or anything) that you could shoot anything you wanted to on.
it's located in the Sumter National Forest in Walhalla.  its about a 25min drive from Clemson.  i go there about once a month, being that its an open public range you get some shady characters that come by sometimes, its a good idea to take a friend. let me know if you want some directions or would like me (i'm sure SVI40 would want to come too ) to take you up there sometime

Chris: One of our deputies just got back from his SECOND tour overseas. The first was in Trashcanistan, he was home for about 7-8 months, then got to spend 8 months in Iraq (yeah, he's in the 211th NG). Be careful & watch your six...Come home safe & the first six pack of cold ones is on me....

I'm in Polk County, just off I-26 about halfway between Asheville & Spartanburg.

btw- if anyone wants to be a guest with me at Ant Hill on a weekend after about May 10 I'd be more than happy to take you. It is most definatly one of the nicest ranges on the East coast and I'm only allowed 3 guests per year so consider yourself special.  Absolut, i know its a long drive, but its worth it!

svi40,

    Yeah, Ant Hill is one of the nicest shooting range I have ever had the pleasure of using.  Tim Timberlake and Joe Justice are two of the nicest shooter I have ever had the pleasure of competing with.  I'm usually at there monthly USPSA match.  I live in Tabor City, NC, just under an hour from Ant Hill.

Tim and Joe are for sure the nicest guys I have shot with in IPSC.(edited to add- and by far the best wheelgunners in NC) I dont get around to practical shooting much anymore but I miss it most definatly. Its a long story but the jist of it is that Im at the inbetween stage of leaving home. Used to be my dad would always go with me to shoot and support me at it. Now I have to pay for everything and its a different story! Not only that but I cant have handguns in the car becuase im only 19. Are you a member out there?

No, I'm not.  I have thought about becoming a member, but I don't think I would go enough times to justify the membership.  At least, not when I can do all the shooting I want in the backyard.

This is my first post in the Hometown forum...  So Hi all.  I live in Durham, till the end of the month.  Then I'll be in Carborro.  I also shoot handguns, rimfire and skeet at DCWC and I shoot centerfire at Frank's Range in Oxford.

I've been into PDHSC a few times to look around the "proshop," and one of these weekends I'm going to rent the "special" black rifle on the wall and give that one a try.
