Saturday Range Day and Ammo testing

Good Evening,

JB has decided to hold a range prep day tomorrow. He will need help painting targets for Sunday and doing general range clean up and maybe some painting.

You are also welcome to bring your guns and ammo to test them out and make sure things are running right with your gear :)

Thanks

Cactus

1st Outdoor Shoot Saturday March 21st

Good evening, fellow FDMR enthusiasts.

The time has come to get back on the range! We will be shooting this Saturday. The stages wintered well, but we haven’t had a workday yet. We do have some cleanup days planned, but I know we all want to shoot—so shoot we will.

If the forecast holds, the weather should be great, with lows in the 40s and highs in the 70s.

If you haven’t completed your annual registration yet, you can do so online. If needed, registration forms will also be available at sign-in.

Membership prices remain unchanged again this year: $25 for a single membership and $35 for a family membership.

Monthly shoot fees are also unchanged:

Non-members: $20 single / $30 couple

Members: $15 single / $25 couple

See you on the range,

Cactus Clark and the FDMR BOD

Scheduling Update – April Monthly Match

Good Morning fellow shooters. Please note that in order to not conflict with Zen’s scheduled we moved our first April shoot to Sunday April 12. You all are fortunate and can enjoy 2 great opportunities to shoot that weekend. Our apologies for the oversight on the conflict, but it was an easy fix.

2026 Iowa / Nebraska State Championship

The Fort Des Moines Rangers are excited to host the 2026 SASS Iowa/Nebraska State Championship Match scheduled over Memorial Day weekend, May 22-24 – three unforgettable days of cowboy action shooting at Coyote Gulch, one of the finest cowboy towns in the Midwest (or should we say Plains Region?).

January 27th Indoor Match at CrossRoads in Johnston.

Just a friendly reminder that we will be holding our January Indoor match this Saturday at CrossRoads Shooting Sports in Johnston.

The doors (please meet behind the building) will be opened around 7:30 AM and we will start shooting around 8:00 AM.  Our plan as always is to get in 6 stages, but we are limited to being completed by noon so the range can resume normal business on the lanes they allow us to use.

Please make sure you complete a CrossRoads waiver before you coe to save you some time at registration,

Thanks,

Cactus Clark and the FDMR BOD
