Have not seen this on the board yet so thought I would let you know. Love the addition of the 100 and 200 stations.

Props and Kudos to the board

Every time I think this place has maxed out on being the best it can be, It improves..... Can not believe it lets me be a member

Glad you all like the addition of berms and steel at the 100 yard and 200 yard points on our Martinsville Sportsmans club range...didn't turn out half bad!

HAMMER, I am bumming a copy of your range photo for our website as I have not been out to take a photo yet, hope you don't mind!

Can't wait to check it out in person, any idea when the new member gate passes are shipping?

Anyone waiting on a 2015 new member gate pass should receive it by end of January.

Gate passes are then good for a full 12 months access 'til end January 2016. Of course, all existing members for 2015 will receive renewal paperwork by mid Nov. 2015 for the year 2016 and those gate passes remain activated for years, as long as a member is paid up and in good standing.

Nice range. Looks better than the one I belong to.

Huge, thank you to the board. I haven't gone there as much as I should have this year. I got bullets loaded up and ready to go.

 

[Hammer]

Go for it Roger, you got my permission.

Do you have to be recommended by a current member of can anyone apply for membership?

 

[racer5c]

never mind just looked at the website

Got to use the new improved 300 yard range today, It was a joy to use. The different range targets are laid out so nicely that it is a breeze to adjust your fire from one target (range) to the other. Well thought out and constructed.

 

[hoosierdoc]

I am getting excited! Range pass should be here soon...

Was out there Monday and saw this. Looks great! Wish I would have brought the Howa with me, as my AR pistol with irons wouldn't have been ideal for this stuff. Can't wait for nicer weather to roll around...

By the way, does the club ever do a cookout or anything similar? I know there are the picnic areas in front, just think it would be nice to meet some of the fellow shooters at MSCC.

We have attempted group events in the past only to find very few folks show up and that's it.

It may be a generalization, but historically our club has been a group of individuals who love to shoot by themselves, but shy away from "group" events. Our bowling pin shoots saw a loss of interest after a few years, literally ran out of shooters and were ended a couple of years ago.

An infusion of INGO members the past few years may change the interest level in group events. If folks want to get together of their own accord and have a picnic in the shelter area at the front of the club, more power to them...that is what the shelter was built for, electrified and even water run to it. Go for it if anyone is so inclined.

Must have missed you! We (indy1919a4 and I) were there (started on the 25 yard range then moved to the 300) from about noon to 3:30 or so.

 

[Redtbird]

Well, I will go visit this range on Google Earth, as that will be the only way I can visit.

Good look to all the members. Looks like a nice place.

I was at one of the pistol bays in the back with a buddy of mine. When I left around 1 (I think) there were two middle aged guys and one of their son's on the 300yd range.

Well, we would fit the two middle aged guys description, and there was a younger guy (a cop) on the 300 with us for a little while. He was shooting a suppressed .308 rifle I think.

You must have been on the 100 yard range when I left. The younger guy was no older than 14, so I doubt he was a cop lol.
