Nothing is hard if you have the right equipment and know how to use it.  OR have friends who have both.

Ok heres the story on where the name/term Garage Rats came from.......!00 yrs ago (well not quite that long) in a land nearby bunch of young ankle nippers hanging out in a garage and up to no good used a handy little .22 rifle to pop rats that braved the area inside and out of the garage. Thereby came the name Garage Rats!   This was used to I.D. the black powder shootin club that was later hatched nearby.  Said club is struggling due to unfortunate circumstances; but we are doing our best to keep it going and hopefully growing (again)  Wish us luck since we need it.  Come on down! :)

Have considered coming down from Moscow area before but never made it. I did note that they are  not listed in the Pa. Federation booklet this year. I assumed they may have become defunct, so good to know they are still around. They are actually the closest club to me. If I may ask, what kind of shooting facilities do they have?

I assume then that since you had looked the location over in the last yrs Fed book you know how to get there..  If not lemme know and I'll send you a map....

House trailer club house. incl kitchen and food served.  Park close to loading area.  Covered loading area.  25 - 50 and 75 yd matches.  Offhand and bench  Usually all matches are re entry.  Buck a target... Shoot 9 ish to ?  Good to better prizes....       Oh yeah very nice and polite range officer.   ::)  15 min relays with 2 minute (more or less) warning,...  If good shooter turnouts silohuette matches will probably follow.... Come on down..
