I'll get you signed up. I'll have some pain killer for you after the match too.

I know the feeling, the 375 is is a pile of pieces getting a bunch of fit and finish issues cleaned up and a different barrel spun.
Almost ready to reassemble, actually I haven't been home much since the New Year's Day shoot due to work, defiantly looking foward to the trip down south.
Does anyone have plans on shooting the Coldbore event out to 700 yards south of Marshfield March 4th?

Where can I find the details on this coldbore shoot?
50, what material exactly are you making bullets from? I'd like to file a little bit of trivia.

Worked on finishing up the new barrel on the 375 this last weekend, I might get back in time Friday to put the rifle all back together and run some test loads prior to the 700 Coldbore at Foxtrackers Saturday - thats a big might.
Nice shooting Zick not bad at all.

Good seeing everyone at Foxtrackers on Saturday!
There's an Auto-loader group shoot at T&T Riders Saturday, March 25th - 10:30a sign-up
Any auto-loading rifle, any optic
Must be fed from a magazine - no single feeding
Borrowed rifles can only shoot once
5-shot groups as follows: 2@100 2@200, 20-rounds total.
Cash prizes for best group at 100, best group at 200, and best group of aggregate (all shots totaled)
Thanks for the info
I know I have been out of the shooting some lately - but rumor has it you shot very well at Foxtrackers if so a Big Congrats! for taking 1st place. I think I heard you did an excellent job pulling the trigger at the TNT club as well lately.

So lately I've been toying with the idea of starting a Precision Rifle club here is WI. It's still in the extremely early stages. I'd really like to do something that brings Wisconsin's precision shooting community together. Some way to identify us as WI shooters as we start to branch out into the PRS, NRL, Competition Dynamics, Border Wars and even independent matches such as the Mammoth Sniper Challenge.
There are a few major hurdles:
1) A home range. Finding a home range to hold matches at, that is centrally located is difficult.
2) Locations of our members. We are extremely spread out. Getting people together would be difficult.
A solution to "1)" is that we just organize practice sessions around WI at various public/private ranges.
I'm open to thoughts and opinions. Please play devils advocate on this.

In regards to 1. Does there need to be a "home" range? There is a couple of us in the Valley, we could try to use Shiocton. There are those more West. We could look into private land or Rapids or Wausau ranges.
Hey fellas, I just moved to Wisconsin and looking to get shooting some matches this year. I am having trouble locating matches, is there a resource that lists most of these events? I'm located in Wausau, thanks guys for any help!

I haven't found a consolidated one, but this thread is a good one for most of the local central Wisconsin-ish stuff.
For around Wausau, there's 600 yard 5-shot group shoots at the Mosinee public range in the summer months hosted by The Marathon county rifle & pistol club, inc. I dont think they have a schedule up yet though. They're on facebook.
You just missed the Marv Bohmann Memorial 700-yard cold bore shoot in Marshfield. First Saturday of march every year.
T&T Riders in Marshfield has 5-shot group shoots during the winter months and rifle and pistol pin shoots during the summer. I'll try to keep those shoots up to date here. The facebook page is mostly for dirtbike riders as the shoots are hosted at a motocross track. There's an auto-loader shoot coming up, details above.
Wisconsin Precision Rifle Steel Challenge series hosts shoots over near racine i think. They have a facebook page as well.
There's a private range in Wood County near the public range where they host 600-yard benchrest stuff. not sure what it's called though, but i've been there a few times.
There's Benchrest F-Class type shooting in Eau Claire and Lodi and others in the summer. NRA stuff.
I think the Central WI Sportsmans Club in Marshfield has 3 Gun events, Call Bulls Eye Sports in Marshfield and ask they can give you the details.
