SJ Shotgun Shootout interest?

[BlackOps Badger 52]

Since Clinton is a bit to far for me to drive, I wanted to see if we could get some interest in doing one in South Jersey. There's a WMA range in Atlantic County and one in Cumberland County. Anybody up for this? I'm thinking the last weekend of Febuary, or first weekend in March. Saturday or Sunday, we'll figure that out if we get some people into it. So let's see what we can get going.

[axeman_g 128]

In!

[BlackOps Badger 52]

Ok, so there will be two of us. lol.

[BlackOps Badger 52]

I should also add that we should decide on Atlantic or Cumberland county after we get some people in on it. See where more people are comin from.

Sounds fun. I shoot at Weymouth / Makepeace Lake down near Mays Landing and I have an auto clay thrower I could bring down

That would be very cool. I also have a Champion MatchBird thrower and two of those little cheapos that you stick in the ground.

The only shotgun I currently have is my rifled Winchester 1300. If someone has a spare shotgun to lend for the day, I'll bring some clays and shells. I'm local to the Cumberland WMA... But that place usually fills up with some undesirables on weekends. Either place, I would like to put some faces to all the names on here.

I have 4 shotguns myself, and I have no problem with you shooting mine. I'm sure others would let you shoot theirs.

Awesome, thanks B.O.B

Depending on the day I can probably bring 3-5 good people along with me.

[BlackOps Badger 52]

Most likely a Sunday. Maybe the 17th. The range in Cumberland county, is that the one off of Buckshootem?

[Kaiser7 33]

Depending on what's going on in my life then, I might be interested. Not a member of that range though.

[Shawnmoore81 623]

Depending on the date for me. Ill look up my class schedule.

[Shawnmoore81 623]

Yeah it figures Im getting certified as a refuse to be a victim instructor the last weekend in feb and instructing in a NRA rifle instructors class the first weekend in march.

You don't have to be a memeber. It's a Wildlife Management Area range.

What if we do it on the 17th?

What is a shotgun shootout? It sounds like fun but Im not sure what it it is.

Just a meet and greet for members of the forum to shoot clays. Good chance to put faces to the screen names.

[gimmemym1 34]

I might be down for this as long as I don't already have a shooting match to go to. I'll keep an eye on this thread.

[MedicYeti 96]

I'd be available Feb 24 in the afternoon. I may even convince the wife to come. I have some clays and 2 hand throwers.

[Ron 0]

C ant do it on the 17 or the 24. Going to Disney with the kids and my wife

OH! I've been there before. It's on my way home from when I work down the shore in the Summer. A few times my friend would drive up, meet me there, and we'd shoot clays when I was done work.

 

I have to see what's up with school, and if I have cash.

[axeman_g 128]

17th... I can bring a few shotguns.

[BlackOps Badger 52]

Alright, folks, I think we have this figured out. I'm gonna set this up for the Sunday, the 17th of February. It will be held at the Millville WMA in Cumberland County. It's located on Ackley Road (Route 718) in Milliville.

 

I'm thinkin 10am start time, but show up whenever you feel like it. I know I for one will probably be there until sunset, unless one of my buddies decides he wants to leave earlier.

 

I'm stealing this next part from the Northerners:

 

Please try and bring everything you can in terms of a gun, ammo, and clays.

 

A rough check list of what to bring:

- Gun(s)

- Ammo (birdshot #7, 7.5, 8)

- Clays

- Thrower if you have one

- Eyes and ears

- Shell pouch

- Beverages/snacks

- Layer up and bring a warm jacket/gloves/hat depending on weather

- Chair

 

If you can't bring some things, we will have plenty of stuff there. If you've never shot a shotgun before, I and others will try working with you to be able to dust a clay by the end of the day!

_______________________________________________

Gun rules to remember:

 

Always treat a gun as if it was loaded

Keep your finger off the trigger until you're ready to shoot

Never point the muzzle at anything you're not willing to destroy

Always be aware of you're target/line of fire

For this range, keep all guns unloaded until you're on the firing line

 

Be smart, be safe, and we will have a fun-filled day!

 

So who's in? I'm gonna start a list. I will be there with at least 2 or 3 of my buddies.

Bring 'em! That would be cool.

If you have time to come, I'm sure there would be a couple people that would let you shoot some of their shells.
