So this weekends shoot is full?

[BigGameHunterSupply]

It was great fun this weekend. Thanks for putting on the shoot. Looking forward to August.

If someone is reading this and thinking they would like to come out, but only have a deer rifle like a 243, 30-06 or some other, so they wouldn't "fit in" don't even worry about that. The hunting side of the course is just for that type of gun. It's set up like a hunting scenario with multiple targets and a limited time, though 4 minutes was more than enough on most stages. The time makes it more realistic, because typically when you see an animal it's not presenting the perfect shot and just standing there as long as it take for you to fire. It's grazing or on alert and moving through an area where you have a limited time to capitalize. Grab your favorite rifle and a couple boxes of shells and try it out. You never know you might do better than you think.

What size targets do they have for the hunting section? I might be interested in coming out one of these weekends.

What size targets do they have for the hunting section? I might be interested in coming out one of these weekends.

The targets are animal shaped and sized accordingly. Some examples are:

Ground Hogs at: 293, 453, 503, 326, 490 yards.
Rabbit at 448 yards.
Crows at 306, 380 and 374 yards.
Bobcat at 371 yards.
Quail at 344 yards.
Rabbit at 377 yards.
Duck at 508 yards.
Coyote at 643 yards.

This course is tough but doable. A friend of mine shot this course with a M/70 7mm mag. Other than a target scope with external adjustments his rifle is stock. He did very well (kicked my a$$). It was the first time on the range for him and he didn't have any adjustment info beyond 400 yards or so.

Thanks for the reply. I don't think my scope has enough power to zoom in some of those targets. A quail at 344 is crazy.

Great match in August

My wife spanked me pretty good.....she drives that .223 very well.

Was a fun time and the food after the match was excellent.

It was nice that the targets were different than in July. Very realistic since animals won't be in the same place every time you hunt and it's better to know how to engage at varied ranges.

Whole thing ran very well. I'm sure I'm not the only one that appreciates all the effort that goes into setting up such an event.

Thank you to all who came to shoot and all who worked to put the match on!!

Hi there everyone, hope you all had a great Christmas and New years! So we have been considering doing a membership at Rock Lake Rifle Range and just Trying to get input on how many would be interested? and what it would be worth? And I will be honest......this is a precision rifle range not a bring your AK47 and see how many rounds you can shoot in a minute!! that is why steel targets will start at 300 yards, there will be sight in boards at 100-200 yards There are pics on the previous post as to what most of the setup looks like, plus I just bought 16 more AR500 steel targets, all IPSC style to add to range, currently from the benches you can shoot 1250, I will be adding a 30" gong at 1440 soon, So kind of what we were thinking is it would allow 2 weeks open then closed 2 weeks then open etc, mostly year around, we still run cattle out there and can not be moving them everyday and the hills we shoot into have to be grazed to keep the weeds down etc. So with that the membership would include full use of the range which would allow shooting from the - Covered benches, concrete slab, Know your limits station, roof top, shoot house, stairs, tires, tank trap etc,( porta-pottys provided) as for Steel targets, with what I am adding there will be around 40 targets to engage with 8-10 of those knock downs and others either hanging or spring loaded, we are currently fixing up one end of the barn so you can put propane heaters in to stay a little more comfy in the winter and if the membership works out we will invest the money back into the range for more improvements, currently the range is still available for private renting with a 4 person minimum 20$ each. And don't forget the first shoot is February 28th, we will have the tactical course and the hunting course rolling, so if you are interested in shooting you can sign up on the website or if interested about the membership come down and check it out. Any questions just shoot me an email Redkorn1971@gmail.com

Two Day wrap up Finale shoot on Oct 3-4 just a few weeks away! The Rock Lake crew has added a lot of targets and stages to these matches. If you want to shoot steel with your bolt rig, this is the local place to do it! Last match of the year in a few weeks.

Sapper - New guy here. Is there a website that posts range scheduling and info? It's been 10 months since the last post on SGT and a Google search got me nowhere. THx, Mac

Most likely it will be early spring before the matches begin based on last year's schedule.

Hey everyone, sorry it has been awhile since an update. My schedule has changes so have not had the time to take many people out for private shoots. This year we will be hosting 1 big event, a PRS national points race event April29th-May1st, registration goes live January 9th. We will also be having a precision rifle/Long range hunting class sometime in February, will post date when I know for sure. If anyone would like to be a Range Officer for the PRS shoot get ahold of me. You can learn a lot just from watching these guys. Info can be found at http://www.rlrr.mycustomevent.com

December 20th we will be having a 22 rim fire shoot, there will be a 22lr class and an open class for 22 magnums/17hmr. 25$ entry with a 20% of pot payout to winner of 22lr class and 20% to open class, no registration just show up at 9 am, 9:30 is safety brief. There will be 8 stages with about 15 rounds a stage, 16 and younger FREE. will have bonfire going and heat in the barn, BBQ will be ready if anyone wants to cook something.

My biggest problem so far with wanting to go to a public range is of course neighbors and noise, but we are still working on it!
