Unfortunately, it looks like I'll be missing this one to attend a wedding.

"A close friend's wedding?" you ask. No, a friend of my girlfriend's. :roll:

More people should get married in Vegas.

I have my choice.
* Wedding reception for my wifes relative that I've met once.
* Hauling weeks old doughnuts and gummi candy out to the bear baits
* Pop some steel out on the range with a bunch of crazy gun people

The choice is clear my friends, see you there

Several of us talked at length at this morning's north breakfast about going to the steel shoot, and it sounded like a blast, so for the guys newly interested--details please!

So no details yet? Where, when, and reservations required? Cost? And any other info would be great.

I would guess it will be at the Gopher Campfire just north of Hutchinson. (Take MN Hwy 7 West to Hutch, then county road 7 north to the 4 foot Gopher on the side of the road.

I think the starting time is 10:00, and it has in the past cost $10.00.

Reservations I don't know about.

I am sure selurcspi will post more details or you can PM him.

Sorry CMJ685, I posted this over on the other forum and I thought I'd done it here.

As to the times question, I think the 11am start worked well last time, so let's do it again. Volunteers to help setup at 9:30 please.

as for the "what's a steel shoot?"

All the targets are made of thick steel plate (so you don't have to patch the holes), we shoot each of 4 stages 4 times against the clock. The best 3 times in all four stages are totaled for the match. Then we have a man v man shoot on a rating ladder .............don't ask just come and shoot.
:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

We promise everyone goes home under their own power.

Pistol only, or is the steel thick enough to withstand .223 rounds? If so, I might bring out a carbine to play with as well.
