PIONEER GUN CLUB – MARCH2014

Well, "The Once In A Blue Moon" Class went off pretty well. We had 6 guys show up, so it

made it worth while. Thanks to Steve Tuttle for working me and working me to even hold

the class. Steve Tuttle really worked hard to make it happen. I'm guessing he was looking for

an excuse to go to the gun store everyday and what he came up with was this special class.

He worked with Steve Brackeen, up at Blue Steel Guns and Ammo in Raytown, to work up

enough guys to even make it possible. Wonder what that average trip cost him??? :) Steve

has a great selection up there and along with Charlie at C.R. Sales & Firearms in

Independence they both really drive a lot of new members our way. Make sure to support

both of those guys when ever you can. Thanks Fellas!!!

Also I'd like to thank everyone who worked the gun shows this February. Ed Camp, Bob

Hudson, Jerry Van Engelenhoven, Jack Volz, David Kramer, Nancy Perrin, and Roy Murray. If you'd like to do a

future show please email me at [email protected].

Don't Forget renewals were due the 1st of March!!! Get those dues in or you'll get to pay a late fee, or worse.....sit

through another Orientation Class. I hope the weather is warming up as your reading this so I can see ya on the

Range!!!!!

NEW LEAD TRAP CLEANOUT AND LEAD SALE POLICY

AT THE BRICKYARD RANGE

The sale of the lead from the Brickyard bullet trap was discussed at the 9 October 2012 E

board meeting. The new policy for the sale of the lead will be: Any club member who helps

me clean out the trap may purchase up to 300 pounds of lead for their own personal use at ½

the current scrap lead price I get at the re-cycler. Any member who wishes to purchase more

than 300 pounds of lead will pay the full current price of scrap lead on the entire amount. The

next cleanout will be in March 0f 2014. GEO. The sale of lead from the trap has added

several THOUSANDs of dollars to our lead cleanup fund and is the major funding source to the lead fund.

I WILL BE REMOVING THE LEAD FROM THE

BULLET TRAP AT THE INDOOR RANGE ON

THURSDAY 13TH OF MARCH 2014. WE WILL

START AT 08:00. AS USUAL THE PEOPLE WHO

HELP ME MAY PURCHASE UP TO 300LBS AT ½

THE PRICE I CAN GET AT THE RECYCLER THAT

DAY. I WILL HAVE A SCALE, BRING YOUR OWN

CONTAINER IF YOU WISH TO PURCHASE LEAD. .

Women on Target Event: The Women on Target Event will be held

on September 20th. The cost is $30.00 per person. This is an Instructional

Shooting Clinic that provides a friendly and fun introduction to recreational

shooting. It is aimed primarily at women that are new to shooting but any

lady may participate. The event will include rifle, shotgun, pistol and

archery. Participants may sign up for any or all of these disciplines. Many

volunteers will be needed to put this event on. If you would be willing to

help, please contact Jack Smart or Connie Baum. Ladies will be able to sign up as soon as we have final approval from

the NRA. There will be a limit of 50 participants.

Priority List: The Executive Board is working on the priority list of projects we need to accomplish in the next 1, 2

and 5 years. If you have any special things you would like to see on this list please contact an Eboard member and let

them know what it is. One thing that is being discussed is an increase in dues with the increase amount put in a dedicated

fund for the improvement of the Brickyard range. The funds would be used to bring sewer and water to the range, pave

the road and eventually build a new range. Please let the Executive Board know how you feel about improving the

Brickyard range and the dues increase.

By-Laws: The executive Board has updated our By-Laws, Code of Conduct and Range Rules. It is on the web site and

included in this newsletter for your review. We discussed it at the February meeting and will also do so at the March

meeting. With input from the members we will continue to update it and hope to have it in completed form for a vote to

accept it at the April meeting. If you have any changes to the current By-Laws please contact an E-Board member and let

your views be known.

Dues: Your dues were due March 1st: There will not be a reminder mailed out so remember the date—it is

the same every year. There is a late fee of $25.00 for dues that are not postmarked on or before March 31. Please

pay your dues on time and avoid the late fee. If your dues are not postmarked on or before March 31st your gate card will

also be shut off and remain so until your dues and late fee are paid. If you are a NRA life member you do not have to

send in proof of NRA membership unless you became a life member during the past year. You do not have to send in a

hold harmless for this year—the one you sent in last year is still good. You do, however, have to send in a completed

renewal form with your dues. Failure to send in your dues, completed renewal form and proof of NRA membership

(if you are an annual member) will result in everything being sent back to you and may result in them being late.

It is your responsibility to get it right the first time. Get your renewal form at one of the ranges, in the newsletter

or from the web site.

Small Berm: Thanks to Rick Lance for constructing the small berm in front of the target frames at the 100 yard line

on Rifle Range #1. Also, thanks to Joe Tapko for putting down the grass seed. The berm was constructed to protect the

target stands that allow the target frames to be easily raised and lowered. Unfortunately, someone thought it would be

great sport to see if they could shoot them up so the berm was needed to protect them. It’s too bad we have members like

that but we do. It will be muddy until the grass gets to growing so please be patient.

Shooting Season: Warm weather is rapidly approaching and many of you are just waiting for the chance to get out

doors and go to the range for some shooting. This is a good time to review the Always Rules of Safe Shooting. 1.

Always keep your muzzle pointed in a safe direction (at the back stop or berm). 2. Always keep your finger off of the

trigger until you are ready to shoot (you are ready to shoot only when you sights are on the target). 3. Always keep your

gun unloaded until ready to use (you are ready to use when the range is safe and you are on the firing line). Always abide

by the rules and no one will be injured and nothing will be shot that you did not intend to shoot.

PPC/Bullseye Building: Work is slowly proceeding on the building. By the time you have read this we will be

ready for the sheetrock. Thanks to Bob Hudson, Richard Muir, Joe Tapko, Bob Harris, Eric Pearson, Terry Wright,

James Smoots and George Monahan for the help they did last month. . Come out and give them a hand with the work.

Signing in: Many people are still not signing in when they come to the range. The range rules state that you must

sign in when you get to the range before beginning to shoot and sign out before leaving. All of your guests are also

required to sign in and out. Please follow the rules. Failure to do so may result in you being asked to leave the range.

Rifle Ranges: Don’t for get to sound the horn and turn on the lights and bells before going down range. Remember you

cannot handle firearms while people are down range and/or the bells and lights are on. These procedures are in place to protect our

members and guests (including you) so please review them and follow them at all times—even if you are the only one on the

range. You never know when someone else will drive up and start handling guns and/or shooting. No one wants to report to your

family that you were shot (or that you shot someone) because the rules were not followed.

Help! Help!, Help! Late last year when we were working on the new building a club member volunteered to help

with the sheetrocking. He stated that when the plumbing, electrical and rough in was done he would bring in a crew and

hang, tape, mud and sand the sheetrock. If you are this member and the offer still stands please contact Jack Smart

immediately. We are ready. If you are the member and you cannot do this please contact Jack and let him know. If you

are any other member and can help with this work please contact Jack Smart or Bob Hudson. We need the help.

Monday Night Trap Shoot: We will begin shooting on Monday nights starting on April 7th. Shooting starts about 5:00

pm and goes until we get tired or run out of shells--usually about dark. Beginning shooters are welcome as are non club members.

Bring a buddy, bring a friend or bring a family member but don't you miss it. We just shoot for fun--no prize money will be given

out. If you don't have a gun someone will loan you one to get started--you furnish the shells. Even if you don't shoot shotguns--not

Work is going on in the New Building We are working Mondays, if you have time,

come on out.

Check with me or Jack to see if we are working that day for sure. I would like to thank

the following people who have given their time to help your club. James Smoots,

George Monahan, Richard Muir, Bob Harris, Bob Hudson, Joe Tapko and Terry Wright

and Eric Pearson.

I also need to give Rick Lance a big thank you for work he is doing on the road

grading and snow- plowing the ranges clear.

Another person I need to thank is Lynn Hersey. He put up a light at Brickyard

building, at no cost to the club. This is the grandfather of one of the juniors and he is a

club member

Below is a list of jobs looking for someone to step forward and take them on and get them done. You don’t have to wait

for a work day. If you have some spare time, Go do one.

We are nearly done with the interior of the new building. It is plumed, wired and ready for sheet rock. If you are a sheet

rocker we could sure use your help. The bath room will be ready in a week or two.

Jobs that need to be done:

Chalk holes in baffles at McBride

Install culverts at McBride on Archery Range

Paint outside of Brickyard Range.

Clean out silo

Repair roof of Barn

Remove all old fences that are not being used at McBride

Finish cutting trees on berms at McBride.

February was a frigid month, not much activity at the McBride Range,

and certainly no disciplines being shot, not even any Boy Scout camp

outs.

SO! Just thought I would post some photos of the marksmanship skills

illustrated by the bullet hits on the baffles on range #2. These are all on

the first and second row of baffles in front of the 25 & 50 yard target

frames. Take note, some are screws and difficult to discern from the bullet holes. But if you enlarge the photo it can

be easily identified which are screws and which are bullet holes.

Just an interesting side note for members who are not familiar with these shooting positions.

9 PIONEER GUN CLUB – MARCH2011

Not much has been happening over the winter it's but we are planning to get started on March 1

weather permitting. We shoot a 60 round match which can be shot at 100 yards or 200 yards or 30

rounds at each range for group measurement and score. We also shoot military issue, modified, and

scope matches at 100 and 200 yards for group and score.

There are separate classes for just about any kind of rifle that someone would like to shoot along

with long range handgun. If we don't have a class when your gun would fit we'll start a new class.

Richard Brinkman

If you recognize these gloves and are the

owner, please email me. Describe the

circumstances of how they left your

possession. They will happily be returned

to you. email: [email protected]

22 GAMES AND

COMPETITION

February was a pretty good month for the games and competition, considering how

bad the weather has been. I have paid out $92.00 in prize money the first two weeks,

with one week to go.

I even had 12 dedicated shooters escape to the range on Valentine’s Day night, where Steve Tuttle had a good

Valentine’s Day (He beat both Ken and myself in the pistol phase).

This month will end the .22 games and competition for this season and will end my running the competition. I am

going to retire (again) from being a director of anything. Park Wood will be running the games next year with the help

of Steve Tuttle. They are both capable people and I am confident that the games will continue for many more years to

come. For those that don’t know, I started the games in 2001 after becoming upset with the way another gun range

was running a similar program.

Come on out and help us finish up the season, it is a lot of fun for $5.— and a box of .22 ammo.

precedes downrange make sure all firearms are completely unloaded, magazines out and actions locked open. The firearms

should then be placed on the bench with the muzzles pointed down range, placed in the rack or holstered. Firearms should be

the firearm. Under no condition shall anyone on the firing line touch, handle, adjust, clean or load any firearm while the

range is closed. The use of empty chamber indicators is recommended. The range can be closed instantly with no notice by

requirements. This is by no means a full list of loads that exceed the limit. The shooter bears the full responsibility to be

sure that his load does not develop in excess of 450 ft.-lbs. muzzle energy. The formula for computing muzzle energy in

foot-pounds is:

11. Muzzle Energy (in foot Pounds) = [(Velocity x Velocity)/ 450400] X Bullet Weight (in grains)
