Certainly there is no hunting like the hunting of man and those who have hunted armed men long enough and liked it, never really care for anything else thereafter.

Re: WV/VA Levergunners meet
Sept, 27, at Roanoke, Rifle, And Revolver Club south of Roanoke. There is a website with detailed directions from any direction. There is a small amount of camping space, with porta-johns and unpotable water. Since the range is covered, there will be no rain-date. I am working on some metal targets at this time. There will be a fee for the range use. I hope that meets everyone's approval. Thanks, moodyholler

Re: WV/VA Levergunners meet
Directions on Mapquest or Google Map are excellent 3hrs and 45min drive time from St.Albans. The Club has an excellent web site. I am a player for the Sept 27 date. It's on my calender. Are there any motels close to the club.I would plan on coming down on Friday.What would be the start time on Sat? Maybe we could get togather for breakfast or supper on Sat evening. Anybody have any comments or thoughts on the idea??? Sounds like a really great time !!!!!moodyholler wrote:Sept, 27, at Roanoke, Rifle, And Revolver Club south of Roanoke.

Motels in the area and get together sounds like a good time. We've been talking about staying over on Saturday instead of driving home right away. Sun AM going home will be easier.

This sounds like a good time for sure and breakfast before the levergunning would be most pleasing. me and the boy plan to head out on Friday. I'm going to take a day off for this. What is the web site address for that gun club ?

I'll be bringing my .22lr, .357mag, .44mag and .30-30 lever guns and my Marlin Camp 9 and XD pistols.
I'd be up for meeting for breakfast Saturday morning but have to be back home for work at 2300 that night.
I'll be driving down from N of Winchester if anyone wants to ride along and share some of the gas cost. If you can meet with my time line above.

I guess I'll have to throw in my EMF 1874 Sharps in 45-70, M-H 577-450, and my 95 Winnie in 30-40.
If anyone from WV would like to catch a ride with me I'd be happy to have some company on the way. I'll be going right through Beckley, Lewisburg/White Sulphur Springs, and Covington VA if anyone is interested.

Re: WV/VA Levergunners meet
Hey, you should keep your milage and we will all clap loudly at the fartherest one travelled. BTW, I think I will camp ovenight Friday at the range, and maybe cook up some grub Saturday morning? I know a pot of coffee will go well. Let me know your thoughts. Kinda' getting excited about this shoot. Has everyone found the link to the club yet? We will be on Range C. Later, moodyholler
Re: WV/VA Levergunners meet
Moody,
The coffee sounds good and your cooking never killed anyone important, so I vote yeah for both.

Re: WV/VA Levergunners meet
MoodyH,etal----- Back in June I ask if anyone had any info on motels in the area of the range. Never did get an answer for the benifit of those of us who might want to arrive on Friday and are not familiar with the area. I tried to find some info based on the directions on the range's web site,did not have much luck.Any help would sure be appreciated.Thanks
PS- Do we have a start/stop time for range use ? I don't want to miss anything. LEVERGUNNER'S we only have 19 days left till range time will be on us.I am looking forward to this shoot. Regards, Boreman

Re: WV/VA Levergunners meet
Boreman, I have been in the hospital in ICU for a while. sorry for the delay. Roanoke is only 8-9 miles from the range, so any hotel here will be close enough. Boone's Mill is equal distant from the South. I will try to get you more info. Roanoke, Rifle, and Revolver Range has a website: RRRC.com I believe and I will check it out this evening. I think it lists some hotels recommended. Please PM me if this does not get you the info you need. Thanks, JAP moodyholler
