Kinny,
Let's get together and practice. I think I am going to shoot in Texas City on Sunday if you feel like driving down. The following weekend I am going to shoot at ASC. Take care.

Same here! It was wonderful to put some more faces with names. I really enjoyed the shooting and the conversation. It was a pleasure as always. I am lucky to have become involved in a forum with such genuine, like-minded people.
Kinny and I had a great time shooting in the military rifle competition! I will add this contest to my monthly list of things I must attend!
Dustin, Thanks for letting me shoot your Sigma...I really enjoyed it as I have never shot one before. Take care and let's do it again!

Does anyone need more than one? "Heed the man that only has one rifle, he likely knows how to use it" Come on out, I look forward to shooting with you!

No, Texas City is very limited in regards of practice. The rules are strict, the staff enforces them completely for the most part.......making it the safest "public" range I have ever shot at. I have learned to appreciate the rules when standing next to some of their patrons.

I forgot to mention that the range is hosting a military rifle shoot on the 15th along with a .22 rifle shoot. The rifles have to be pretty much stock with iron sights.....mauser, AR15 etc. Call the range number posted above for specific information. There is no entry fee and the winner takes bragging rights!

There is nothing to lose but gaining some great pointers from some very experienced rifle shooters. Knowledge is power and the price is right! Take care.

I live a bit closer to the freeway than Tom and would be happy to guide you in! Just PM me before the 15th and we can plan on meeting close to 45 if you like. The Texas City range is not really one that you will stumble across on accident. I would enjoy shooting with you.

I think I will bring a few wheelguns for those that don't get the opportunity to shoot them much. Sounds like I need to bring my AR as well. Tom, I will bring my shotgun if you will teach me to shoot skeet all over again. It has been twelve years!

guys, we have to first find out if the range is open that day.....it is city operated and that is the weekend of Easter! I will try to find out ASAP but they are not open until tomorrow. Tom, do you have any clue if they are open? Take care. If they are open....I would not miss it!
