South Eastern Oklahoma: here is something you might want to checkout. Airfest 2010 with Lasso. Saturday Sept 25th in Calvin Oklahoma. I am hoping I can get Tom Krein to come down, no promises yet. Dan Koster will be there, they are both heavily in to air guns as well. Anthony Niernberger, a very talented knife and tomahawk maker from Cleveland Ok will be there with some fine wares for sale. There will be big bore long range shooting, up to 54 cals at 300 yards. Lot of other air gun shooting as well. This is the largest outdoor air gun shoot and swap meet in the U.S. Crosman corp form New York is even coming down. If you are around please come check us out. 100-200 people will be attending.

Range Layout for Airfest 2010
*
A sample of some of the targets I put together yesterday.
Poker anyone?
My take on the Quigley bucket. Start to finish 1 hour to build 5 of them. Not as pretty as some, but they will work. About 5 dollars each to build, and only a drill and hacksaw were used.
One of the targets for the kids range. Cowboy and Indians
6 in gongs.
Range layout is as follows.: 10-20 yard kids range with a 6inch gong,string resettable Prairie dogs, and a few other targets. A 125 yard balloon line, 25 yard pistol line, 50 yard string resettable Prairie dog line, 125 yard remote resettable Prairie dog line. Gongs at 50, 75, and 100 yards. Assorted other targets 25 to 100 yards.
If anyone can bring portable shooting benches, and some more targets, it would help out a lot. Tim.
