Weather is getting better and we should arrange a long-range shooting day.
You are 100% correct! How do we proceed?

1) Set a date and avenue for 500 yards we can go to the Top gun shooting club. Nice folks there. It is good a place to test hand load ammo, check zero and check your dope at 500 yards.
2) Make a poll to see how many are interested.
3) Range fee is $25 per person, we can call and see if we can get a group discount.

Get your gear ready and hit the firing lanes. Oh, I meant hit some steel down the firing lanes. "rlol" "rlol" "rlol" "rlol"

How about Saturday, Feb 20, 2016?

I can do each other Friday, with enough lead time, Saturday is best. BTW, we can call and arrange to book lanes. Entries are for day long and not for hours. BTW, we cannot be like 20 shooters, as the lanes for LR are limited and then we would have to share lanes.

Sometimes I can get away on a Friday, it just depends on workload.

Saturdays would be best for me and Feb 27 might work, will be out of town next week.

Does Top Gun require a progression from 100 to 200, to ?? to 500 yd? Never been there 100yd is longest range for me so far.

Only if you would like to shoot first time as LR AND/OR you would like to be member of the club
