The best way to find a sponsor is go to an open shoot (something I have to do myself). I took my hunter safety class there a few years ago. Great group of folks.

You are a woman?When a dude with the name broccoli offers the only substantive information in 25 posts...you’re probably on NES.
We’re all very nice once you run the gauntlet 20-30 times and survive like the other 10 or so ladies here (myself included, but I just identify because of how NES makes me feel sometimes.)
No 5 year list.I heard Reading Rifle has a five year waiting list?
I heard cops shoot for free there, too.
If you haven’t tried trap or skeet howThe Trap and Skeet ranges are open to the public on Sunday mornings. 5-stand and skeet also on Wednesday evenings.
The rifle matches are a bit more involved, but are also open to the public.
We‘ve also recently begun holding monthly .22 Precision Rifle matches.

Is there a better day (Wed or Sun) for someone who is new to Trap and Skeet?
whore...... not that there's anything wrong with thatNo 5 year list.
I see a lot of people here want to join... I will sell my recommendation. Bidding starts at 1K small Pistol Primers.
Thanks! The only shotgun I have is a Marine Magnum. Should I bring that or would that just be stupid?sunday may be better than wed.
Sun is usually straight skeet shooting.
guys there can and will help you down the right path.
They shoot only steel shot and supply it there at a reasonable cost
I believe they have a few club loner guns for you to try if you don't have one.
Bring your ppe and a couple of bucks and you'll be set.
Bubba runs it. He is also an officer in the club so he can give you all the info you need to continue on
I would bet that gun has a cylinder choke, and that would be about perfect for skeet.Thanks! The only shotgun I have is a Marine Magnum. Should I bring that or would that just be stupid?
Headed there (Reading Rifle) tomorrow to watch the 22LR competition. Anyone from here going?Not sure if I am allowed to post this. Admin please remove if not allowed.
Anyone here a member of Reading Rifle Club? I hear it’s fantastic and it has everything I am looking for in a club. Only issue is, you have to know a member to become a member. I have never stalked anyone before but....

Not accurate. Get a member to sponsor you and you will join in a month.I heard Reading Rifle has a five year waiting list?

Unless they recently closed it for new members and I didn't hear about it.
Slight change of topic ...
Has anyone heard if the club will put some steel plates on the pistol range?
Even a simple plate rack with a few 10" plates would be nice or a dueling tree.
There will never be club steel placed on the ranges under 100yards. It is impossible to police who shoots at it and with what. The steel targets will get destroyed or someone will get hurt. It’s also why members aren’t allowed to bring their own steel targets (except rimfire).
The only way for us to have steel at pistol ranges would be for a Pistol Chairman to volunteer and he/she would be responsible for safe use of any steel targets used for pistol events or casual use.
Wonder how clubs like Harvard manage to have plate racks that are setup and ready to shoot at any time for members.There will never be club steel placed on the ranges under 100yards.

Harvard members are held to a higher set of standards than most other clubs. There is also a stringent interview process involving a polygraph test.Wonder how clubs like Harvard manage to have plate racks that are setup and ready to shoot at any time for members.
I know Andover has steel targets at 25 and 100 yards if I’m not mistaken.
Thankfully my club allows members to bring their own steel after getting club president approval.
