A little action from this weekend......videos later maybe.
Spotter and shooter
The spot
A young "blackwidow"
Tough to tell shooter from spotter.
This had to be TRIBE's....at 1111 yards he was the only one that might not penetrate 1/32" sheet metal!!!!!

Hey guys... Once again, what a blast! Weather could not have been any better either. A couple of nights under the stars made all of the driving well worth it. Not to mention the new depth, breadth & color that the boy has added to his vocabulary! Good clean livin'!
BTW... those hits are all that much more impressive........ when you realize that I'm skipping them in....

Re: SHWW Group
Arctic Light and myself are in the Poulsbo/silverdale area, We will need to try and make it up to the next shoot you guys have. Right now with the bridge being out, it really sucks. My friend is on the bridge project and they are currently on track to have it open around june 1st. They get a big bonus for finishing it in 4 weeks vs the original quoted 6 weeks. We should try and set up another shoot around the middle of june. I have a scope on order and should have it by then. Nice pics by the way.

Re: SHWW Group
Ya, I think Arctic Light would have tryed to come to this last one, but he is without a scope right now, I am too, plus i have been out of town with work for the past few weeks. So as soon as we get optics in, we will be ready, Im thinking mid to late june we should try for another get together.
Looks like you guys had a lot of fun and from the pics looks like a nice site. I need to get my hands on some steal too. Ill start looking around for some of that.

Re: SHWW Group
Something out of wood would be lighter, cheap and easy to construct. 2x4's are cheap now. maybe like like two sets of 2x4's, each bolted at the top so they scisor, then like a 2x6 to make the top of the A frame. Just need a truck to haul it up there. I may or may not have a truck at the time. I will buy the material and test it out. i just might need someone coming up the peninsula to pick it up, I am 5 minutes off the highway. Once the Hood canal bridge opens up, anyone driving up the kitsap peninsula would come right by.
Then maybe we could hide it way out in those woods, so we dont have to haul it each time. Maybe I should get pressure treated, so it will last through the rainy season. It seams like a lot of the time is getting the stuff up off the ground so there are no bushes or anything obstructing the view. That spot seams pretty good though.

Re: SHWW Group
hey guys I have three sets of frame hangers that are pretty portable, two of the frames and a piece of rebar bolt together to make a frame, then you can hang whatever you want from the rebar. They are about 2 foot tall, frames and targets can be made man portable with an alice pack frame

Re: SHWW Group
You would want to keep it heavier steel if it will last, between rot and misses the wood don't take alot of abuse.
Trying to keep it where no one really knows where we are exactly....leaving equipment around might not be a good plan...or if we went out to use it and it was gone....TRIBE would have a really boring drive!

Well I have to tell you guys that Findlay cup was awesome. I think it was tribe who quoted another hide member "longrange shooting it is where fantasy and reality come crashing together"
As usual I met a great bunch of guys, had a good time, and realized how much more there is to learn.
PS I cant wait for the bridge to open

Re: SHWW Group
Hey I have been inspired.
I might need tribes input on this but I have an idea.
For those of you who are familiar with Slab Camp above Squim there is another clearing that has not been blocked off.
the clearing is about 50 yards wide and the and you can strech it to 200 yards for a shot(150 is better)
My thought is this, I have a varity of steel targets for 22 long rifle, what If I put togehter sort of a reduced range tactical match. For fun and comraderie only, along the lines of the Findley cup. The target ranges would be from 25 to 150 or 175 yards, 22 lr only with coures of fire that require you to shoot:
Cold bore
offhand
muliple targets and ranges in a single course of fire
sitting with and without sling
prone (NO SUPPORT)sling only
prone with support
and if we finish in time hostage balloon targets
IF I set it up it up how many would come?
this is a good spot for camping, the grounsd is flat bare and very hard though

Re: SHWW Group
Why don't we take that idea.... and crank it to 11! Sol Duc, Heavy Steel, Real Rifles, Great Camp & <span style="text-decoration: underline">ELEVEN HUNDRED</span> Frickin' Yards!
And yeah... the Cup was a blast... it was good to see Dafar & Mattj over there... good people, good times... lots of other Hide/WCT guys as well, but I don't know if any of those guys follow our little thread here... highly recommended if any of you-all ever get the chance! (BTW blackwidow... I used the off-hand advise your instructor had given you, that we were talking about at camp... it saved me from being woeful ).

Re: SHWW Group
Hi guys,
I try to keep track of this thread, just been busy of late.
I *will* be coming out to play with y'all this summer -- the Cup was WAY too much fun, and I want more (and need the practice).
Tribe, it was good seeing you man. From the scoreboard, looks like you did some damn fine shooting. DAFAR, I'm not sure if we met or not -- I'll figure out who you are one of these times
I haven't been to the Sol Duc spot yet, but I sure like this talk. It wouldn't take that many steel targets to be able to put together several Findlay-esque stages (just use different combinations of target order, shooting positions, time limit/round count etc, to mix things up). Semi-regular informal 'practice matches' like this would be stupid fun, and great practice.
I'll try to keep a better eye on here for the next outing (bridge status willing).
