It's all your fault!

New member here. First time poster Long time reader. I hail from the west central part of the edited state of IL which anyone that knows anything about my state knows what I mean lol. I've been handloading for about 5yrs and new to the long-range stuff. My good friend and mentor told me it was a disease and he was right. This site is like medicine for my brain. I want to thank many of you ahead of time for all the info and insight you have given me on many issues when you didn't even know you were. I also want to apologize ahead of time if I do something wrong or put something in the wrong place on this site. I'm not the most computer savvy person and this is literally the first time I've joined a forum or site. I don't even do social media so if I do the wrong thing it's just ignorance lol. With all the "freetime" lately this site has been a great way to pass time and learn a lot at the same time.
Thanks again, 74honker

Welcome to the forum! What kind of shooting do you like to do these days?

 

[ButterBean]

Welcome

Grew up doing mainly shotgun sports/hunting. Started reloading for 556 and 9mm. Have always been interested in the fine art of long-range stuff and starting with a Rem 700 in 7mmRM. Hardly anything in this state to hunt with a rifle so mainly just targets and the occasional varmint now. Hopefully one day be able to run the western states.

Welcome from AZ.

7mm Rem Mag is a great cartridge, especially if you come out west.

Welcome

We shoot 1,000 yards at Winnequa Gun Club near Lodi, WI. Wednesday mornings. If you would like to come. PM me if you choose to come.

Thanks all for the warm welcome. I sure hope someday to get that direction for sure. It'll take awhile to save that many pennies lol.

Thanks for the invite Terry. WI is about a 5hr drive from here but I do hunt the NW suburb area "Chicago" for geese a lot during the winter. Would love to just watch and learn at a place like that for sure.

Welcome from the People's Republic of MD. You have come to the right place!

 

[74honker]

Thanks YZ-80. Been to MD once believe it or not. Easton area, beautiful state. Like I said in my opener, many of you have helped me already and never knew it. This is a great site for those who truly need/want to learn.
