NWI Meet & Shoot. 5/20/23

[d.kaufman]

Less than a week away.

I will be +3, more than likely. Will probably set up at 25 yard to start out then move to 50 to get a couple new ones on paper then to 100 before we head out. Should be there around 11am EST, maybe earlier if everyone here is motivated

Unfortunately a change in my plans so I won't be able to make it.

 

[Max Volume]

I wanna make it and will pick some neglected firearm(s) to bring. Fast time is my nemesis. There's also the voyager's rendevous this weekend I wanna make.

Voyageur Rendezvous | Lake County Parks and Rec, IN

Peek into the lives of those who would have lived or traded along the waterways of the Midwest more than 250 years ago when the marshes were a source of valuable furs desired by merchant traders to take back to Europe.

I looked on the states page, nothing saying black powder is prohibited. If I can find caps I’d like to stop by for a couple hours.

They have a black powder loading table at the 25 yard line.

They have a black powder loading table at the 25 yard line.

I believe they have the BP loading tables on all the lines at the Winamac range? The shooter is required to load their BP weapon at the table then walk to the shooting line, place caps/flints in place and fire. This became a requirement at Winamac about 3 years ago. I asked the range master why? He said he did not know other than Indianapolis sent up the decision/ requirement.

I don’t think my supplies will arrive by Saturday the 20th. I may show up anyways with a couple different options. I can get a good look at the lay out while I’m there this visit.

Someone had powder ignite on the table.

Your welcome.

Spoke too soon. This is a 2hr drive for me.

 

[kaveman]

The road closed signs are up for 39S at 8 but I think it's route 10 that's actually closed. So no crossing over east/west on route10 through No Judson.

Heading out. Should be there around 11am est

 

[kaveman]

Y'all have a good time. You bagged a most excellent day for it!

 

[d.kaufman]

Had a good time today. Only 2 other INGOers showed but was a pleasure to meet and shoot with both... @Max Volume and @ZurokSlayer7X9

Daughter and her friend as well as my buddy all loved shooting the 6.5 creedmoor

 

[Max Volume]

It was nice to meet everyone. Good bunch of people. I had a great time and glad I went. I did however develop a desire for another AR. As I walked up to the computer a .243 somehow popped into my head but I'd have to think about that one for awhile. Naw, maybe a .308. Well the classic answer is "all".

AR = All Rifles
