    Edit: Changing the date to the 26th to give more time for planning.

    Due to popular demand, we're doing this again ;)

    Enough people have said they'd be interested, let's get another meet going.

    I'm proposing the 26th of September, and we'll meet at 9am in Circle Pines so that the rifle folks can have a little bit more fun :)

    If anyone has an idea for an alternate site, I'm more than open to suggestions. People with all skill levels are welcome, I'm more than willing to help teach people how to get started.

    Post up if you're coming and what you're bringing. If you want to shoot something that someone else owns, PM that person and ask if there is any ammo they prefer run through the gun.

    I'll be bringing the usual:

    Ruger 10/22 - pretty much any .22LR will work just fine
    Remington 870 Police Magnum - either 2 3/4 or 3in shells, no strange rounds (dragons breath, etc)
    Kimber TLE II - 230gr .45ACP FMJ rounds only please :)
    Kimber Rimfire Target - High velocity .22LR rounds tend to work best
    Sig Sauer 229R - .357SIG ammo (if you can find it)

    I do not want +P or +P+ rounds through my pistols. Magnum rounds are fine through the 870. Thanks!

    We're in!

    I'll bring Katies S&W .38/.357
    And my
    -Springfield xdm .40
    -Mossberg 500
    DPMS AR-15(.223)

    I'm sure Nick will join us again with his Ruger 10/22.

    I normally have lots of ammo with, otherwise yeah nothing funky just normal decent stuff.

    I am in.

    I will be bringing:

    -Springfield XDm .40
    -Springfield M1A .308Win / 7.62x51 NATO (150gr Federal works best)
    -CY6 AR-15 .223 / 5.56x45 NATO

    I will have to try working up some hand loads so I will have some ammo to bring ;-), the stuff is getting harder to find.

    Damn, I was really hoping to go to the other date mentioned. But this new date I'll be out of state.
    Prior to LAST WEEKEND I HAVNT FIRED A GUN IN ALMOST 20 YEARS. woops caps, to lazy to fix

    I did my first time ever at skeet shooting with a 12 gauge. Was awsome! The first 4 shots I didnt hit crap, but after that I seemed to get it down. Anytime this is offered again, I'd love to go. I felt so amped up after shooting. I can see how this could get addicting. Its a big stress reliever.

    They dont sell much ammo, pretty much just whatever extra we have laying around, or we can order it in, but usually u have to buy a case of it... They sell a lot of used and collector guns, some new stuff on hand (if we dont have it on hand we can order it in usually within a week) We also sell some scopes and accessories. If you are looking for anything in particular the shop is called Neigel Firearms and the # is 218-736-2133... We also put on 2 gun shows in Fergus Falls, one in Sauk Centre, one in Detroit Lakes, and one in Wadena... The shop is located in Fergus Falls

    Yikes this is tomorrow. I thought is was Sunday, phew almost missed it. I should still be able to make it. I made it out to the local 100yrd range and got my new scope 90% dialed in. I will also be bringing a browning buckmark in .22LR.

    I will have to see if they have any good deals on 870s there, Robinsdale only had 1 and it was $900!!!

    That's why you get a mossy 500 or 590. They're cheap, reliable shotguns.

    You're bringing your AR then I take it? If so, what sort of .223 do you recommend I buy a box of to fire through it? I'm not shooting your ammo again, and I think Steph wants to take a shot at AR-15 shooting.

    I picked up 250 rounds of 12ga target ammo today. And a more comfortable grip for the Mossberg. Should be a good time tomorrow. And I'll let you blast away with my 12ga ammo if you give us a little .223 to plink away with

    Well I have seen 870s going for about the same price as the 500s the one they had a bills was all tricked out so it cost more.

    I will be brining the AR with. I only have about 50rnds for it. If you want to pick something up, pretty much anything in .223 or 5.56x45 will work fine just no steel cased stuff (Wolf or Bear ammunition).

    Fleet farm right down the road from Bills has a bunch 0f the Federal xm193 .223/5.56 @8.99 boxes of 20 or 200 for $79(none left)which is a "goodish" price. They also had probably 150 boxes(50) Blazer Brass 40 S&W but that was 15.99:(

    I'll bring 200 or so .223 so no need to run out to buy 1 or two boxes if someone is just wanting to try em out a bit.

    I'll pack a box of 357 mag for our little revolver which is kinda fun too. Oh and a few slugs to really make the mossberg boom.

    ^ I might need to run to the fleet farm I only have 30 rnds for the .223. 200 for 80 is the same deal as walmart nd cabelas have. It is a good price considering the current conditions.

    That was a good time. Glad that we had more people make it out than the previous outing. Now I need to tear down my ar and figure out why it was FTEing.
