Roger that! A few years back a group here got fired up to go out there and everyone joined up and then everyone got super busy and no one went LOL. I intend to actually go to these places this year!!!

If you want company, my buddy and i can join you.

 

Mifflin is a great range but hard to get on, on a weekend. They usually have events. Since its a 3 hour ride for me, i plan on going 1-3 times a yr. What we do is split the membership fees (one guy renews as a member, the others are his guests). Makes sense if you only go 2-3 times a year. We get a hotel room so we can get two days of shooting in.

 

Oh, you can also camp outside for $10 a nite, although ive nvr done it.

Good to know, thanks Jimmy. BTW you and Keith are having too much fun down there!!!!!

 

Yes, yes we are. Amazing living in America. I got my 1st suppressor. Have another in NFA jail along with 2 SBRs. It's expensive living here, but worth it. Come down and visit when you get time.

Hey Shane i you are going to Mifflin make sure you have a high bipod. The range goes up the mountain and a 6x9 will be hard to use at distance.

 

While a 6-9 bipod can work, you will use it on 9" more than 6" (at least, for me).  I use a 9-13" bipod and typically leave it at 9".  When I do that, I need to get the butt of the rifle kinda high when shooting at 100 to 200 yards but it's comfortable at the other distances out to 1050 yds.  I never need to extend more than 9".

Whelp my stick is ready for the range. My Ruger Precision Rifle 6.5cm with updated LRI bolt shroud, American Precision Gen II Little Bastard Brake. Harris Bipod and Vortex PST 6x24x50 FFP scope. Couple boxes of Hornady ammo to gobble. Now just need some time and some nice weather to sight it in. Just bore sighted at the moment to get me close on paper hopefully.

It was nice today.

Sure was. But I hate going up there on weekends. I usually hit it early and try get out by noon or when I run out pf ammo.

Actually, I may want him to bring me something.

 

Pizza?  That and bagels are the only thing I'm struggling with.  The rest is great.

Couldn't tell you Nick. Do a search. Realize Jacksonville, a much bigger city, is only about 35 - 40 minutes away from that range.

I was being facetious.  I saw some amazing homes down there for amazing prices but it's a bit too risky for right now with the young kid... I also changed jobs fairly recently and I really like it where I am so... Yeah...  Eventually, hopefully...

    • What's the crime for riding a dirt bike on the street? Most likely a fine, misdemeanor at most. That justifies causing severe bodily injury through use of lethal force by auto?  There is no way to predict that he would have hit anyone, it's more like a 99.9% he wouldn't have hit anyone.  And that was a 2 lane road, not a pedestrian walkway. Hopefully he hires a good lawyer and everyone is held accountable for their actions.
    • Seriously? “Sounds Fishy”? You can’t think of a reason why the cop thought that was going to happen after watching the video? The cops are there after multiple reports/complaints of vehicles in the pedestrian walkway and reports of near misses. The ATV is on a pedestrian walkway where there are not supposed to be any vehicles and is moving at very fast pace. If he couldn’t stop for the police car, what makes you think he could stop in time for a pedestrian. He dynamited the breaks to avoid hitting the car and lost complete control of the ATV. Luckily the mass of the car prevented it from continuing to tumble down the walkway and take out pedestrians like bowling pins. If he had hit the brakes like that to avoid hitting a pedestrian instead of the car, would the ATV not have flipped? What would the now out of control ATV have done to any people in the walkway? Would the first person be hit have enough mass to stop the ATV in its proverbial tracks? I have seen plenty of pedestrians stuck. It is never like the movies. They don’t parkour out of the way of a speeding car - especially when pushing a baby carriage and the vehicle is approaching from the rear in a place where you think you are safe because vehicles are it permitted.

    • Why would he think the ATV rider was going to run over the pedestrians? Were the pedestrians laying in the road? Sounds fishy. A good lawyer will have a field day with this one.
    • If I lived in the hills, (or the burbs with a tall tree) I'd invest in at least one dedicated repeater and a solar based system to power it.  I don't think you need a tremendous amount of battery capacity, as the repeater will be on standby most of the time.  It will only draw serious current when it transmits. I think one could set up a reliable, self sustaining private node for around $1,500, maybe less.   Agree 100%
