Next monthly friendlly gathering
Well, that kind of shoots that idea, thanks for the info Tom. We could always go to the USS NJ and set up on the fantail. It is big enough to accomadate every member of the forum. And I do not think the sound of gunfire in Camden will shock anyone.

Next monthly friendlly gathering
It is about 1 - 1.5 hrs from us depending where we live. I have a licence as well. I can also bring a sit down thrower. Keep in mind, bird season starts Nov 7th so the place will be hopping. I have not hunted Clinton in about 4 years so I do not know what the range is like anymore.

That is the one Mark. I would always go to Assunpink until they changes the range to Lead Free shot. On the website Clinton is still ok to shoot lead shot as is Stafford Forge south of me. But Spruce Run would make a decent middle of the road stop.

Remington 597? Good? Bad?
The mag tube is not that much of a PIA. Though not as easy as popping in a mag. But you can get 14 rds in it

There is always a WMA like Spruce Run in Clinton. As long as one person brings a hunting liscense you are allowed to shoot. Just bring some throwers, clays and rounds. Just a thought

Remington 597? Good? Bad?
Pete, look at the Marlin Model 60. No upgrades to spend your money on and arguably more accurate out of the box than a 10/22. Matt shot mine Sunday and Anastasia can not put Maksims down. You can find used ones for about $100 in good shape.

Shotgun for HD and Skeet
I started with a Moss 500 with 2 barrels. Worked very well for clays, hunting and HD. Then my addiction began and I can't shake it. Why did no one get a picture of Maks getting nailed in the head?

Want to start reloading, need advice.
I can't stress enough the importance of reading more than one manual. Some get into specifics for their bullets while others like Lyman give good all around information for lead and jacketed reloading. I personally have 5 manuals and will get more to read. You will find manuals list the same caliber, same powder, same bullet, same primer and OAL will have different start and stop load info for powder charges. It is normal as they test under different conditions and with different firearms. I started on a Rock Chucker and still use it. I now load pistol and Dillon Square deals, rifle on the Rock Chucker and am planning on getting a Lee Classic Turret for rifle, but will keep the RCBS because there is always a use for a single stage.

Handheld GPS for Hunting
No admonishment, I am just bluntly oppinionated. It is a character flaw that I do not plan on fixing. I honestly am not a fan of all the high tech gadgets that take away from the basic human abilty to function. I hope you get the info you are looking for.

Studio is not fun
You neeed to set up a reloading station to keep you busy. Who needs to study anyway?

Electronics usage vs. Daniel Boone
Daniel Boone is using Elecronics to lock this thread because it is rediculous. I will stay out of your thread because you obviously have an issue that goes deeper than a GPS

Handheld GPS for Hunting
Dude, I gave you my opinion and said a lot of people use them. You threw the insult. You go ahead and use one and when the battery goes dead and you wander aimlessly lost because you never bothered to learn to become a woodsman, go ahead. But do not ask a question if you do not want an answer that makes you feel good. I never had a GPS. I had a Lensatic Compass and a map.

Wow, Matt as the voice of reason, good post.

No, I am of the opinion that if you can not navigate in the woods without electronics, you do not belong in the woods. But that is just me, I know a lot of people use them.- Central Jersey - The Final Countdown
I thought the same thing. Just do not know which one should be insulted.- Central Jersey - The Final Countdown
The only bad thing about today is now I want to spend more on a 10/22 trigger than I did for the rifle. :x- Central Jersey - The Final Countdown
Definately had a great time. It was nice to meet a few new members and shoot again with those I have before. I look forward to the next time.- Govt. to OUTLAW FISHING!!!!WTF
The Enviro-whakos are in control now and we are all doomed to their ideology. This is bad. - Handheld GPS for Hunting
