Mississippi Shooters

Just checking to see if there are any long range enthusiasts in MS, or south TN or west AL? Would love to be able to get together with some local guys and do some shooting. I know there are a few guys on here that live in MS but I don't know what part of the state. I am looking for a way to get involved in some long range shooting, maybe some competitions, and good places to shoot.

Greetings, I do not have a place to shoot. But I am wanting to. I have shot my 300 win mag at 1000 yds in OK, I have a 300RUM and just purchased a 338 EDGE, that I have not had a chance to shoot yet. I would be interested in know where there might be long range compition around close. I'm in Columbus Ms.

How's it going fellas? There are a couple of us in Central MS, that shoot F-Class. There are a few ranges spread throughout the state, Pascagoula and in Bogue Chitto. I have access to family land that we shoot up to 1200 yds. We usually dont shoot our 1200 yd area until after turkey season, but we will shoot our 600 yd range any weekend( weather permitting) and if we are not at a match.

I'm not from Mississippi but pass through on I-10 and Pascagoula regularly. Here's a link to the Pascagoula Shooting Club, they have a 1,000 Yard range.

Hunter19... once I get my rifle built I'de like to come out and shoot with you guys some! I'm new to this long range stuff but I want to get into this stuff for sure. I guess you know Eddiebo? He isnt far from Bogue Chitto. I go through there heading to work(offshore), I pick up a buddy in Brookhaven on the way.

Yeah I know him, he is the one that got me into this longrange stuff. I am actually headed down his way Sunday, so he can inlet a stock for a 6x47 of mine. What are you building? You are more than welcome to come and shoot with us when we shoot. Zack(Eddybo's Cousin) and I actually shot today. I will PM you with my contact info.

its gunna be a 300 RUM, Billy Tierce will probably be helping me with it... I'm torn between the a stiller lawton or maybe the aps raptor actions... cant make up my mind, a3 stock, jewel trigger,probably going with a kreiger, some mounts, and top it off w/ a victory diavari illum reticle. I'm building it for somewhat of a hunting rig. I had a sandero 7mmRUM topped with a victory diavari non illum reticle and that rig got stolen... im still sick about that one.
