@TNPhil Here are the general guidelines for the Trading Post https://www.tngunowners.com/forums/articles.html/community-info/about-the-trading-post-r2/ And this sub-forum has some more info: https://www.tngunowners.com/forums/forum/43-trading-post-notices-and-faqs/

Welcome from Nashville! Love the area around Sparta and Cookeville. I’m another one getting back into firearms after a long hiatus. And congrats on retiring at 51 (assuming that bit was true).

Welcome from another Nashvillian!

Welcome from Nashville!

Thanks for checking and confirming. I sent you a PM.

All the info I’ve found indicates Hirt from this period (mid-70s) used Berdan primers. Can you confirm that is the case here? Thanks.

Welcome from Nashville!

Any info on how this has been stored? Have you actually used any of it? Info on the box in the 4th pic indicates it is from 1976. Thanks.

I’ll take it if still available. Can do FTF. PM sent.

Welcome to TN and the forum.

Welcome from another Nashvillian! As far as sighting in rifles, the Cheatham WMA range goes out to 100 yards. Stones River Hunter Ed center goes out to 200 yards. (https://www.tn.gov/content/tn/twra/hunting/firing-ranges.html#cheatham) I think OK Corral (https://okcshootingrange.com/) out past Murfreesboro goes to 200 yds. We’re waiting for the Montgomery Co. Shooting Complex to re-open their rifle and pistol ranges (https://shoottn.com/). They have a 400 yd max. Check out some of the discussions in the Nashville Club Forum at the bottom of this forum.

Welcome from Nashville! Congrats on the upcoming retirement and thanks for your many years of service!

I got the info through the email contact. The Cheatham WMA range will be closed on May 29, June 19, and June 26, 2025 for those interested. Apparently this is posted on the TWRA Instagram and Facebook accounts, but I’m not on either one of those.

@monkeylizard Thanks for that suggestion. I called today but they didn’t know the dates. They did give me the number for the Cheatham WMA manager but he didn’t have the dates on hand when I called him. He said they were posted on the TWRA website, but I can’t anything there. I’ll try the email and see if I get better results that way.

Hoping for some help. I was out at the Cheatham WMA range in early March and they had a sign up with dates that the range was going to be closed for law enforcement training. Stupid me didn’t think to take a picture of the sign and I can’t remember the dates. I seem to recall there was one in April and two in May. Has anyone been out there recently that knows what the dates are, or where I might find out? It would save me a wasted trip if I happen to decide to go out there on one of the closed dates. Thanks.
