... that's easy NO TRACERS, they're about useless during the day anyway. ... The large "pit" we'll be firing into is free of brush. |

Secured a couple pieces of steel for Sunday. 1 might have future potential as a swinger if it's still alive after the fun. Also got some smaller targets that most likely won't hold up to the abuse.
Ah, the sad drama of scrap metal. zukem, I appreciate the offer, but I think I may have something worked out with gunslinger. |

Attempts to secure stuffed animlas failed. Mom and daughter turned on me like rabid dogs. I did manage to secure a bunch of milk, laundry soap and similar containers for targets. I have folding chairs and cooler, but could use a table of any sort. Can anyone spare a small table, or some space on their own?

I don't have a table either but I do have a big tarp that can be used to help contain brass, or I'll just prone on it if there's no space anywhere. The Garand won't be here in time, nor will my new scope. But at least a big batch of Thermolds came in so I won't have to spend as much time reloading. I also plan on bringing some high contrast spraypaint for my steel, open to public use of course.
Winston, I bet some guys at work your .50 will go through one of the beefier pieces I found, would you mind ventilating it once for me? |

... Heck, I'll let you do it! Each round comes with an aspirin. ... I just got back from the store awhile ago. If anyone forgets food, I could provide a little sustenance. Fresh percolated coffee is on me Sunday morning for those spending the night. Tables are not necessary but it's a lot easier and safer than minding muzzles from the tailgate-to-the-line sweep. Remember, I'll have some "Special Targets"  for ya'll.... I'm also bringing cigars for those that partake.

No can do this time, damnit.
I'm taking my wife to Kartchner Caverns. We've had reservations for about 5 weeks now. Damn. Oh well, I didn't find out in time to load enough ammo anyway.... (And the truck needs an oil change, and I haven't finished painting the rafters, and....WHY DIDN'T ANYBODY TELL ME ABOUT THIS SOONER!!!!) |

Not sure who will be teaching it. I've heard there will be two lead instructors, and about 6 coaches. It's supposed to be a big class, split into two groups. Jay |

With the passing of my bro, my dad and I have started doing more things together lately, so be advised, the Captain will be there.
I'm bring the gas piston conversion. Hopefully I/we can shoot it and it won't break. More and more and more and more fucking testing. |

I'll be showing up in the AM with TopCrest and the Captain, unless I somehow end up out there tonight..
Does anyone know of a local source for affordable surplus .308 that would be open today? I thought I had more, I'm running low. I don't want to spend $50 for a 200rd battlepack when I can get them mail order for $30, but I'd like to get something to bring tomorrow. Thanks. -Cory. |

Hey Cory,
I've got a sealed 200 round battlepack of Port. 308 here at the house. If you want, I'll bring it and you can replace it when the next show pops up here or get some ordered.... Randy |

I'm feeling a bit like a lobster myself. Worth it easily though. Can't wait to see the pics and videos. Thanks again everyone, especially Cory and Tony for helping that bolt carrier tighened up. I still have the steel just in case we can squeeze one more in before May 22.

... Man! What a hoot, that was one of the BEST shoots I've ever attended. Cases upon cases of Tannerite, piles of NFA tools. cheeseburgers and tons of laughter.
... What more could you ask. ... Where's that MPEG of the 10lb. Tannerite stuffed animal space launch? |
