I had a couple general questions. First I was wondering if there is anywhere in the Minneapolis/ Twin Cities area where you can go and shoot 300-600 yard range without taking out a loan to join a club. Just moved here several months ago and I was spoiled before. There they had cement benches, 25, 50, 100, 200 yard, and 300 and 500 meter ranges, with covered shelters for the benches. All for $10.00 a year membership, ouch!
Second question, I am thinking about going out and shooting in a 600 yard BR competition, but I have no idea how to go about getting involved, and if they hold any shoots around here. I know they do some in South Dakota, which I wouldn't mind going to. Most of the Bench Rest Shooting organizations online have sketchy information as to how to get involved. I have a fully custom target rifle to shoot it, just need a few odd ball things, so i'm not too worried there, just need to know where do I start?
any info would be appreciated, thanks
