Tidewater Rimfire Rifle Event---- Weather Strikes AGAIN

UPDATE 5/19/16: The rain is going to get us again. Unfortunately we will have to reschedule once more.


Those who know me know my love for 22 LR, meeting new shooters and trying out new set ups.

In the spirit of all of those things I purpose we have a rim fire meet and greet. Time and location are up for discussion but I think a rim fire event would allow more people to participate.

I'm sure enough people have one or two rim fires that even those without one could just bring ammo and have some fun.

Please respond if interested at all as I am trying to get an idea of interest.


EDIT- dsguns was kind enough to grant us access to his FIL's land in Chesapeake. There is enough space there to shoot out to around 500 yards. As such, center fire rifles and shotguns are welcome as well. I will be bringing several boxes of clays and a couple more boom sticks than I had originally planned.

DATE- 5-21-2016 getting starting at 11:00 AM. We will be having a safety brief before things get started so everyone is on the same page. Please plan to attend that, because if you are unsafe you will be asked to leave.



Not pretty but they'll work! We built 5 of these and brought enough wood for more.


We might have done some shooting today...


Can you even see the steel at 500? There was about another 600 yards behind us as well.

I would be down for this. Love shootin some 22's

Check with Cliff . Maybe farm would be a good place for this

Not 100% who cliff is, but that would be fantastic!

I am willing to bring two rifles, enough 22 for several people to shoot all day and trash bags/ tarps for clean up.

Can either have it at my house or my father inlaw farm in Chesapeake pending how many people want to come

Sign me up, I'd like to put some faces to names.

i'd be down too. Can bring my takedown and take one of Koen's 22 off his hands

Sounds like fun!
My son and I would love to come

This sounds like a good time. I like my .22's but unfortunately I'm in NoVa or I'd be right there with you.

Have a good time everyone.

I'm interested even though all I have is a 10/22.

I imagine that most people will bring a 10/22

Sounds like fun. I think I'd like to attend; schedule and wife and baby depending. Sounds like a great place for baby's first range trip !! I might have missed it when it was posted but when were we thinking this might take place ??

Dub, a date is being hashed out right now with the land owner and one of us will post it just as soon as it's decided.


I appreciate everyone's involvement and I look forward to seeing some new faces.

I also don't mind the use of my aac pilot 2 22lr suppressor for those that have threaded barrels. That's never shot a silencer before

So we are shooting for 4-30-16. How does this date work for everyone. Wed there permitting

Weather permitting *

4/30/16 works for me and mine.

Works for me also.

I will be on vacation that week

Pending attendance numbers we most likely we be having the event on ballahack road in Chesapeake just so everyone knows the area it will happen. We can shoot long long range for those that like that as well

Address? I can possibly bring a 10/22 and a Walther P22 and ammo. As long as no more appts arise.

4/30 works for me. I'll bring a 10/22, 22/45 lite and 6.5 Grendel since long range is OK.

Please reply to me via text or pm to verify your coming. 757 570 0717

Mark your calendars, folks.

I would love to attend and will have two people with me. Sounds like fun

Can't wait to see everyone. Bring the toys out and dust them off a little with some good people

Had fun today setting up everything. Going to be even more fun next weekend

Looks like a lot of fun sadly I won't be able to make it

If this goes well I'm sure we will hold more events in the near future

Nice place!

Is there going to be a malotav cocktail range. I am blind in one eye and cant see out da other so I started throwing bottles. LOL

We actually didn't have to set up a molotov range because the giant ditch serves as one. Kill rats on sight

Can't wait!!

Not going to be able to make it after all. Have a good time everyone!

There will be more events gln. And sorry you can't make it

Non rim fire weapons okay to bring too? I only got 1 22.

Yes tuna bring whatever you want to shoot

So what time you kicking this off?

Going to start at 11am

I'm sure there will be plenty of people needing some ammo for the event

Do you have subsonic 22lr..

I sold out of subsonic. Prices are below and include tax
Federal Automatch $30 per

Womp womp. Rain got us.

its not supposed to be bad this weekend is it?

Not supposed to rain Saturday but supposed to rain this evening and into tomorrow and we're we have anything setup as you can see in the pics is nothing but a big mud pit from what my father inlaw said to me today. But we can reschedule really anytime. We aren't limited to certain times of going out there thankfully

Yea nice guns shooting in the mud would not be fun at all

New date?

05/21/16 at 11:00 AM

Mark your calendars.

i am hoping to make it, will let you know as the date gets closer

Sounds good. Hope the rain holds off for us this time lol

can't wait to play with all the new toys.

This sounds like a good time!

Come on out its gonna be fun for sure.

Richmond gun show is that weekend...

This sounds like a good time though, I hope the weather cooperates and ya'll can have some fun.

Richmond show be damned! WE GON CHOOT!

Hmm gun show or go shoot? I would chose shooting any day lol. There is a gun show almost every weekend some where. And I haven't seen many deals there in years lol

Yea SOS at gun shows would pick shooting for sure

Guess the rain is screwing us again?

I'm hoping not the farm was pretty dry this past weekend when I was out there. As long as it don't rain on Saturday I'm thinking we should be ok

Guess we are off for this Saturday again..

Yeah unfortunately looking like a complete wash out all day on Saturday. I really wanted to make it happen this weekend but mother nature is working against us

Ok let me know about the next one.

Any more talk about having a day of shooting?
