Fellow Shooters,

We are pleased to announce the next shoot at RockCastle Shooting Center in Park City, KY. The date will be OCTOBER 8th, this is on a Saturday. We have changed the format of the shoot some, there will be an opportunity for members to shoot with us on Sunday. To join us for a few hours on Sunday you will need to be on the roster and pay the additional fee of $25.00. This will be a full day shoot (Saturday) on the long range course. You will have a lunch break at the lodge as we repair/repaint the targets.

If you would like to stay at the lodge your arrangements can be made thru RCSC staff at the number below. Tell them you are making a room reservation for the night before the shoot, if you have a long drive this course of action is advised. It makes it much easier waking up early the next morning to get your breakfast and be out there ready to roll. We are into the summer rate for RCSC, it is $79.00 (+ tax) a night. This is a new room rate..... it was normally $99.00 a night. They recently changed it for this event. Take advantage of the room rate and stay with us, we normally all get together Friday night in one of the big conference rooms. They are now allowed to serve wine and beer at the hotel.

Range fee: $25.00 for the full day on Saturday, We can accommodate Partial days on Friday or Sunday. Partial days are still $25.00

Food: Is menu price. You can always bring your own lunch and stay on the range with us to eat.

Here is the address of the Shooting Center:

Rockcastle Shooting Center at Park Mammoth Resort
22850 Louisville Road
Park City, KY 42160

Phone: (270) 749-4101

http://www.rockcastleshootingcenter.com/

The Range:
Is about 2 miles from the lodge. Is an open field surrounded by hills and forest.
We will have steel reactive targets set up from 400-1100 yards. There is also a 1600 yard shot that we can put you in the correct firing position for if you ask one of us. Please note* This is our personal collection of targets, we do not make any money on this event. We are simply doing it to further the sport we love and we take the risk of target damage. Be a responsible shooter, ask for help when you need it and we will be there. We would like to avoid any negligent damage that we could to our targets. You will NOT shoot anything on the range but approved steel targets. If we see you engage anything but our provided targets you will be asked to leave without a refund and banned from the range events. It is crucial that you respect the property of RCSC.

Sign In/Day of Shoot:
Upon arrival to the lodge you will check in at the front desk. The RCSC staff member will ask you to fill out a waiver and then for your range fee. Once those two things are done you will be highlighted on the list and given a wrist band. You must wear that wrist band for the entire time you are shooting. If you take it off we will not allow you to shoot until we verify that you have signed a waiver and paid your fee. There are NO exceptions to this rule. You must go to the lodge first and check in and then report to the range. A safety briefing will begin at exactly 8:30am and when it is over we will go live. I plan to shoot till lunch and resume at 1pm. We will then shoot till we lose light or we deem it time to go cold. That is up to the RSO's for safety's sake.

This will be a 25 person roster: You must be signed up with me to join in.
We have limited room and this is all we can fit on the firing line. Please post in the thread that you would like to come and then PM me your FULL NAME and any guests (along with their info) that are coming with you. We ask that our attendees be 16+. This is a safety precaution. There are NO EXCEPTIONS.

Re: RCSC: Range Day - October

Re: RCSC: Range Day - October

Re: RCSC: Range Day - October

We have the range to ourselves and we are in a wide open hillside. They cant miss us. If they miss 30+ shooters with rifles blazing, a 16' enclosed black trailer on the hillside, AND all of our cars parked then we need to bail bc they have taken a group of blind people out there!!!!

We will be fine!
 
Re: RCSC: Range Day - October

Wish I could be there. Last one was great notwithstanding the 107 temp. AND I have a new AR upper to try out. Sadly I'm stuck caring for a dog with end stage kidney failure and the birth of my first son most likely end of this week. I'll def push to join the next one.
 
Re: RCSC: Range Day - October

We are now half full with a week to go! Lets keep the sign ups coming!
 
Re: RCSC: Range Day - October

Will there be 100 target set up again?

It does not matter either way, this is not a request, just asking.

Re: RCSC: Range Day - October

I wont be able to do one in November. I have way to much on my plate....

- I am in a good friends wedding.
- My dads birthday trip
- My company is expanding and I am in charge of the integration of new employees.
- We are expecting our baby girl to be born near the end of that month!

We will try and get one going before Christmas if the weather can cooperate with us.

Sorry can't make this one. Hopefully next time.
Feed Ace beef jerky and he won't bite. Yes that was an epic event with the shocking collar. I'm still laughing about that one.

Don't worry Big, we'll sit back off the side and console each other! Brand new load work-up just finished and haven't had the chance to jam my Shooter App against "real world" numbers yet.

Be a good time regardless, me and deh223 willl meet up with you guys at the Lodge tomorrow evening!

Re: RCSC: Range Day - October

Re: RCSC: Range Day - October

Safety Briefing is at 8:30am CENTRAL Time. Please be present at that time. We will go hot shortly after the we finish going over the briefing.

See everyone on Friday evening if your staying at the hotel. (There will be plenty to drink)
The hotel served Beer and Wine. Don't think they serve the hard stuff yet.... You can always bring your own. I bring bourbon!

You check in with the front desk at the hotel BEFORE coming to the range. Follow the instructions and then we will see you on the range!

Thanks
 
Re: RCSC: Range Day - October

Well boys, myself & deh223 have arrived at the lodge. We'll be takin up residence in room 140. Y'all look us up!
 
Re: RCSC: Range Day - October

Be there in about an hour myself I'll find you guys Lol.
 
Re: RCSC: Range Day - October

I hope it happens with the 100 yard target so I can shoot my CZ452 Ultra Lux and Brno sights between cool downs,,I have been tinkering with it at 200 also,,shot a couple 5 shot 3 inch groups with it at 200 last Saturday.

I will only have 100 rounds of centerfire ammo..
