Default spring shoot

there was a few of us last year tryingtoget a shoot together, and I was wondering, how many of you might want to pursue this.

I have a range near me that will block the whole place for a weekend pretty inexpensively, we may even be able to camp there. I think I would like to have this in the next 30-60 days, maybe even sooner, if enough guys are free, and willing.

shoot me a text, or email if you are interested, saubierpostalshoot@gmail.com

therange is near la porte city, IA

I stopped by a couple months ago on a cold windy Sunday and spoke with the owner. I grew up three miles from there. Also there is a nice campground/park near there called Roger's Park where members could stay (about 5-6 miles to the SE)

The range has 2 covered stations and I think you can get to about 450-ish yrds with a portable bench/table. I'm sure something could be worked out with the owner. I have a couple business cards at home, and can get the contact info to you this eve if you wish....

I think the rates were $20/per person/per day and if you called ahead you could reserve the whole place for the same cost if memory serves.... They also had a pistol range...

I know this is crowding it a bit time wise, but if you could get it put together in 3 weeks, there would be some very good mushroom hunting. Just North of Vinton there is few thousand acres of public land or the Cedar River... Some of the members may get a kick out of that... Just a thought and no caliber restrictions either! : )
