Guys,

I think it would be a hoot to have a get-together from NitroExpress.com. It would be hard to beat the Vintagers. That gathering is one of the better opportunities of the year, and they have two levels of double rifle competition - stopping rifles, and stalking rifles. Of course, they do scads of shotgun competition too. All the while you are surrounded by top-notch vendors with double rifles and double shotguns like you have never seen. That setting requires no planning or effort on our part. You just show up.

My wife enjoys going too.

Foxfire, it happens in your back yard. You shouldn't miss it.

As for me, I live in the boonies and shoot something just about every weekend. You Fairfax County boys could just skip down some time, and we'll bang away. I have a shooting buddy who lives near Staunton and belongs to a fine gun club. That's not too far, maybe 2 1/2 hours for you.

Depending on the size of the group, there are lots of options.
