Skunkabilly,

The SL range on Hwy 1 just about 2 miles south of Morro Bay and the state park is pretty, has some LONG ranges and the Hogue company sponsers a very nice action pistol range there.

When a group of us camped at the park while attending the International Revolver Championship we were welcomed by the staff and had no problems with being able to clean and tune our guns in open. Of course we all had friendly revolvers and not evil black rifles.

If you go in June you can probably see Jerry Miculek doing his thing for the news media, using a revolver to imitate a machine gun. The IRC is in June and he is usually there and the news media usually track him down. Other notables and the Shooting USA crew will probably be there as well.

If my finances ever get in order I might even be able to talk my wife heading down.

The SLO range off of Hwy 1 IS nice with a friendly staff.

I highly recommend this place as a rally point.

This range has a pistol range out to 50yds (used to have a bunch of blue bells for plinking out to 50yds). For rifles, we can have out to ~300yds if you choose to use paper targets. Past 125yds there are steel plates to plink at out to 400yds with the 400yd plate being a "gong". Past that the only other target is a "gong" set out to +800yds.

date wont work

I am going to Fort Lewis. On the 28th for a week. I have a thing up there. Big bummer. The grade is closed. I have not gone there since 90. Oh well.
 
Due to the nature of the cargo, I think 45R and I would rather stay on county rather than state and federal campsites, if I have the laws straight, or am I all backwards???

CORRECTION: DATES SHOULD BE MAY 21-23

We intended it to be the non Memorial day weekend and I mis-read the rows on my ubertactical HK calendar (too busy staring at the USP Expert I guess :rolleyes: ).

What to bring: money and ammo, I guess, and whatever car-camping gear you'd want. We'll just camp overnight for two nights, hike in the AM, eat out (bring $$$) and play at the range.
 
The lady at the campsite called me back.

Guns are AOK just "keep it on the DL" (down-low), i.e. no prancing around with our M-14s :D

She's going to mail me back some paperwork with some area maps then I'll hold at least 2 spots. Each spot will support 2 cars or up to 8 operators. We'll have adjacent spots. Now I just need a headcount.
