I'll put you on the list. Right now it's a long list of "Maybes". I'll just update it as I get confirmations or cancels.
Yeah, Anderson's pretty close. I haven't caught any deals around here. I paid $100 for a pair of lowers last summer. |

Little update: "Jungle Lane" went from maybe to probably today. I visited my steel supplier today. I didn't want my AR500 plasma cut so my buddy in Columbus, Oh is getting my specs to his steel guy who laser cuts. Jungle lane will now be AR .556 capable. There will be at least 12 baddies hidden in the jungle.

From 3 years ago. Hope this gets you guys a little jazzed. I am.
The entrance: 
In the jungle: 
Good hits: 
Sheepturd rocking my nine. This year will be rated for .556 (hopefully).: 
Monty with his .22lr conversion picks one up to the right across the valley: 
On the left! Notice the range to the target! Some were quite well hidden. Plastic was used for the close ones. This year will be longer range due to caliber: 
No! The left!: 
Monty and Sheepturd exiting the "Lane". It was nearly 100'F that year but at least it was really humid.

Well, I'm done planning and started working. One of the 2 range vehicles is now running. The other is on the charger and remains to be seen.
I've started welding. I just put chains on the new torso and building a stand for the long shot. Bad news guys. This torso is a wee bit smaller than last years.
I dug through the basement and found hundreds of targets. I've started to work on the new plate rack and decided to do a complete rebuild. I'm tired of the hinges snapping off after repeated hits so I'm making my own out of 7/16" rod and 1/2" schedule 40 tubing. |

No it was with the 22lr Benelli again, but correct on shot count. |

That brings up a good question. I think most normal people drink. Alcohol is the lubricant of society. The end of May maybe warm. What will be the rules for alcohol consumption? There will be camping, shooting, and eating. So, will there be no restrictions on where and when we consume alcohol? Or, will there be "soft" guidelines for people. At most shooting events they seem to have hard restrictions around the competitive areas for the competitors.
I understand any rules may necessitate exceptions/exmptions for drunken trannies of whom may be taken advantage. |

Alcohol. The keg is open after all ammo is put away and guns are secure. I have 9mm pistols, 9mm AR and .223 ARs for anyone that needs a loaner. I'll update soon with a "recommended gear" list as soon as I know exactly what I'm doing this year. (I'm close) Miles nailed it.
