    Default Hello Berks!! and Neighbors

    Northern Berks checking in, I'm about 10 miles west of the Cabelas off I-78, don't belong to any clubs right yet.

    Do most shooting with some Schuykill County boys up in some old Coal Strippings....I'm sure Coal Cracker will know what I'm talking about.

    Default Another Berksonian...

    ....checking in.

    Fairly quiet here, but that's not so unknown for Berks. Having been born and raised(mostly on the latter) in Berks, it comes as no surprise as to the lack of traffic here. It seems that modern tech phobia of many in Berks, combined with a near xenophobic nature makes for a less that hectic forum. Too bad, perhaps that'll change with time.


    7.62xIan,
    You're not that far off from me, as we're just a bit farther south & west from you, being about 2 1/2 miles due west from Bernville. I'm a member of the Hamburg Rifle & Pistol, about 15 minutes from home.


    Shoot Safe, Shoot Well!

    Default Hello from Eastern Berks

    Hello all, ChamberedRound here checking from Eastern Berks. Live a few miles from Pottstown. Recently moved into the area from NJ.

    Berks isn't exactly a technological hotbed, so I agree that it's no surprise there's not many posters. Hopefully, we can work to change that.

    Looking forward to all the posts and good information coming out of this board.

    I too am an escapee from NJ, been here almost 6 years now and love the freedom.

    Have you gotten your CCW yet?

    Yessir. Was here 7 months when I applied for it, and received it in 2 weeks.

    Default Hello All

    Living on the wild edges of Reading City Limits. Spit out the back door into Shillington. I do most of my shooting at the Mohnton Fish & Game. Pistol (50yds), Rifle (100yds), Trap and some archery targets with a wooded course. I'm moving into some long distance shooting, starting out with 223 at about 300 yds so I'm looking for some facilities. I've begun to look at the University Rifle Club (300 yds) as its close but I've found a range towards Quakertown that's out to 500 yds. I'm looking to find some less formal places where you can place cans, plastic jugs, etc. If anyone knows of anything available I'd appreciate a heads up.

    We must live next door. I'm in Millmont. Never been to Mohnton, I'm a member over at Fleetwood (I work out there). They have a 25 yard pistol, 50 and 100 yard rifle, and trap. Nice place, always quiet unless trap meets are going on. Only problem is paper targets only.

    Mohnton's pretty reasonable and the facilities are not bad. Rarely a crowd at the ranges. Berk's County Pistol shoots up there. Same problem, paper only.
