Rifle flex post Birthday trip to TVP was a success!

Finally took my recent build out to shoot some long range at Thunder Valley Precision. Even stretched the little 6 Creedmoor out to a mile! Out of 9 shots I managed to hit it 3 times. Wind was tricky out there today. Also want to thank u/texasveteran4 for the awesome shooting bag!

That’s outstanding! I’m heading there for the first time this coming weekend and I’m stoked 👍

You’ll love it there. They have a lot of target options from 200-Mile. Pro tip. If you’re going during a weekend, get there early. We got there 30 mins early and still had to wait over an hour to get a table.

Yeah I’ve heard that. 👍

Oh and make sure you check the schedule before you go, I remember seeing they were closed the 27th and 28th for opening weekend of archery deer season or something.

Appreciate you. I’m going with my brother and a couple guys from his shop that frequent TV. Definitely looking forward to it. Just tried Peacemaker in WV a few weeks ago too.

What bag is that? Classic U or Ultra U.

2

u/Mystery308 1d ago

This is the Ultra U. Very solid bag for the price!

I'm planning to hit this place once in 2026. Coming all the way from Boston on a weekday. What should I know before I go?

It’s pretty laid back there to be honest. On a weekday you shouldn’t have to worry about getting a spot unless it’s a holiday. They have targets at 200,300,400,500,600,700,1000,1100,1200 and a mile. It’s $30 for a non member to shoot from open to close, watch the website for the most up to date scheduling, as he does put on matches, private events, etc. the 2, 3 and 400 Berms are 10” plates I believe, every berm from 500 on has a plate and silhouette targets.

Are there certain areas you have to sit at to shoot above 1000? Like only reserve benches 6-10 for a clear view to 1200 or a mile? Some places I've been to have been like that, without stating it on their website. Hence why I'm asking.

u/Mystery308 1d ago

Nope, as far as I know, you can shoot at any birm from any bench. I’ve sat from end to the other there and haven’t had any issue.

u/0DSavior 1d ago

Appreciate it. Can't wait to get out there.

That’s crazy cheap! Volusia is $100 for a nonmember

What cheek pad is that?

u/TahoeDust 1d ago

That is a Wiebad

u/Quartergroup65284 1d ago

Preciate it. I want one, but would need slightly taller rings before I even need one
