Planning on it, depending on the health of the kids, as always

That was fun. Good to see you again Nightdriver, and nice to meet you George.

Next time I will shoot my rifle the day before, no matter what the old lady says

And it was good to meet you, Sir.

Can't believe you didn't mention getting shot. Giving any consideration to wearing kevlar next time?

I figure if I flex my pecs hard enough 9mm will continue to bounce off of my chest. I figure I'll be safe until people start shooting 10mm.

It was a fun day, made some good shots, made some bad ones, walked right passed another target.


Did you get a bruise from getting hit Kuraki? and, will the little lady let you come out & shoot again?

Just a small one. Nothing at all. Glad it was my left shoulder though, otherwise shooting trap would probably be aggravating.

It's brutal enough. The PWS brake on the SCAR17 I had sounded identical to this thing with an A2. At least to me as the shooter.

No, he's talking about the feller who ran stage 3 but wasn't in our squad, trying to catch up to the other squad.

Ah yes, that guy.

I'm running a Rainier Arms XTC. It barks. I like it, but several people have commented to me about it.

BTW, nice rifle Kuraki!

It Always seems that these events are on a Sunday. any chance that they will switch to a Saturday?

Yep both of the guys had camo painted rifles.

The older one with the .308 and brake was just brutal


Josh made a comment to him about "if he could find a louder brake" or something like that.

I tend to think not, because Saturdays are usually busy with other events at HR&GC. You might try asking over here, but there's no guarantee you'll get an answer.

3 Gun is traditionally on Sunday at Holmen. At first because it generally followed the Saturday USPSA match. Now, I think because of other events. You have a long drive or prior Sunday commitments?

Jealous. 3 hour drive, but I may come up for the next one! I am trying to find something closer to home as I type.
