Just joined Cherry Ridge

Recommended Posts

I have heard and read a lot of positive reviews about Cherry Ridge. I went up there on Sunday and joined. What a great place. All of the R.O. were very friendly and were happy to answer any questions i had. I'm looking forward to going up there again sometime real soon.Image

CR is a great range. Something for mostly anyone, friendly folks and very,very safe. You'll enjoy shooting there.

 

Once it get warmer, we have monthly meetups there on the second Sunday. A bunch of us show up, bs around for a while, move to the range of our choice for a couple of hours, and reassemble on the shotgun range to make dust for a couple of hours. Good times with good people. This year, we may have a barbecue there. They have tables scattered around the property, and the RO's said it would be no problem. I'm looking forward to it.

 

Where are you traveling from?

WOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO another person to add to my growing group of FUDD's!!

 

Welcome to the group. Like Ken said, we hold monthly get together the second sunday of every month. Look for the first get together in April!

 

I'm beyond excited for this year, if it's anything like last years growth, the monthly get togethers are going to be insane. I am sure I will be looking for some people to help me coordinate stuff this year if we grow the way I think it's going to grow.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I'm traveling from Fairfield, Its only about 35 minutes from my door to CR. I was informed about the meet ups, they sound like great fun. The gentleman who handled my membership application was telling me about the 2x4 competition, should be a blast. Hopefully i can make it up there for the next meet.

i don't think it was one of the ROs. I think it was the guy that took my membership application the guy who gave the safety briefing. His name might not even be Ray. like i said im shitty with names.

 

It doesn't matter. THAT ^^^ is fantastic!

non-members can come as a guest with a member. $25.00 daily guest pass, and the guest has to stay with their host.

 

The range is open every day (except Christmas day, I think), all year until 1/2 hour before sunset.

I agree!!!!!!! When he said ray I thought he meant chucklehead, but the fact that someone AT Cherry Ridge told him, has got me all excited. WOOOOHOOOO!!!!

Does Cherry Ridge take walk on or do you have to be member. I would like to see what there all about thinking of joining my self but would like to check them out first. I really like thats its an outdoor range are they closed in the winter ??

 

You can visit the range just don't walk onto the shooting lines or have a firearm without being sponsored. You can look around the property without anyone bothering you.

How crowded is CRR generally on the non-membership weekends? Mid-day saturday is going to be my first chance to shoot there since I signed up and I'm just wondering if I should be expecting any parking challenges or limited port availability.

 

Check the calender and make sure it's not a work weekend or if there's an event. There is a swap meet 10-1 on Saturday so parking up top can be an issue.

 

You probably won't have any issues at pistols or 100.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
