Where to Go
I live on the South Carolina Coast about 120 miles from Charleston, SC, Columbia, SC, Raleigh, NC and about an hour from Wilmington, NC and an hour from Nowhere else!! I would like to find a club that has scheduled silo events where I can go on Sundays to either participate, practice or watch. WIth the Price of gas I would like to keep the distance to within a 150 miles...... preferably less, as that the round trip will eat up a tank of gas. The clubs I currently belong to do not have anything compatable with setting up a Silo shoot, even though I have my own set of targets. One is a Shotgun club and the other you have to set all targets in a line and then the shooter has to move back to the various different distances.
If anyone can give me any suggestions I sure wold appreciate it!
Thanks,
Steve

Re: Where to Go
Steve,
No one in this area shoots smallbore rifle silhouette on Sundays. Mid-Carolina rifle shoots pistol silhouette on the 3rd Sunday in Columbia, SC. Rifle silhouette is done on the third Saturday of the month in Columbia, SC for directions check the web site mid-Carolina rifle. Savannah river rifle and pistol shoots on the second Saturday of the month. In Brunswick Georgia they shoot the third Saturday of the month although this month the state match is being held on both Saturday and Sunday. Roxboro, NC shoots on the first Saturday of the month. Contact information is available from the online version of Shooting sports USA.
Hope you can figure where you want to go.

Re: Where to Go
Can't help you on where to go shoot but I would recommend printing paper targets of silhouettes that are scaled to whatever distance your target line is set from the firing line. Then you could practice at your more local shooting spots. Will the club allow you to setup swingers at the correct distances to shoot from one firing line?
