    Jedi, your right it's not merrillville, merrillville is on the other side of I-65...

    TV, Melensdad is correct that is the same one I have... You can get it from Cheaperthandirt.com for 219.00 currently..

    I would also try using some of the orange peel style targets out at the 225 to make things a bit easier to see... Walmart has them...

    I have a can of bright orange marking spray paint and a bunch of big empty cigarette boxes(holds 30 cartons full) from work. Make nice targets, but haven't tried them at 225 yet.

    Well the orange peel type targets are black bullseye type but when your bullet hits them they turn yellow around the hole and they are about 2 or 3 times the size so they are easier to see when shooting at a longer distance...

    Well it's hard to tell over there, you have Glen Park, Merrillville, and Hobart depending on what way the wind is blowing... but the club is in Glen Park...

    I didn't throw the Barska scope away, but I only use it as a prop in photo shoots anymore...

    I'm excited about my new printer. It doesn't even have a trigger or firing pin and I installed it correctly! Now ... if I could just figure out this camera thing. I'm afraid I'll just have to get new memory cards as I fill them.


    BTW, which one of you guys works at Blythe's in Valpo?

    I hope ya bring your coats, wool socks and sweaters cause it might be cold. :)

    Looking forward to it. Might think about bringing a heater, somewhere people can go to "stay" a little warm, from on and of the line. just an idea. Not sure we would be able to, but better to try it and everyone stay warm instead of getting a cold weather injury out there. Oh, and Hot Chocolate too :rockwoot:
