It's going to be great! Did I mention to bring whatever will keep whatever gun you have running? I'll get a couple of cans of RemOil CLP or something for the class. I think I have a big bottle of old, now smelly, Militec-1, the anti-lube too

No one is coming. It's up to us.

It also has an external kitchen and other fancy facilities. ETA the course is full. |

Shall I hit the Restaurant Depot to pick up provisions to bring along? (See avatar for ideas). Group meal(s) would be great! I'll gladly kick in whatever cash is needed to cover my part plus extra for gas & labor. On top of that I'm old enough to remember how to wash dishes by hand and can flip pancakes or scramble eggs like a boss. Just LMK how many meals we're looking at doing as a group or if I should bring anything for them. I'll probably be eating Friday supper on the road so am looking at all meals on Saturday plus Breakfast and lunch Sunday. Whatever works for the group! |

Alright. We're looking at food for 10 ppl (correct?), defiantly group dinner for Saturday. I'll swing by Restaurant Depot tomorrow and grab provisions for a bbq dinner, plus some breakfast stuff. I don't have a feel on their current prices, as the last gig I priced out was in the spring. Will post later with what I grabbed and what else we might need. |

I'd be surprised if there wasn't one in either the bunkhouse, or the clubhouse. UPDATE: We has someone cancel, so one more spot open! |

Tell us whatever it needs to be to cover your gas & time too at the least and round up aggressively. I picked up some nice beef ribs (chuck, as I thought the short ribs in stock were too lean). Dinner will be ribs, beans, cole slaw, salad. (I have or will get everything needed). I also picked up two dozen eggs and 4 lbs of bacon for breakfast. I'll bring plates / cutlery from my stock, along with the other consumables. I'll look at the receipts later, but I think we'll just do a per head for breakfast / dinner. |

Originally Posted By GreenDragon: What distances are we planning on shooting? I'm looking through my ammo and seeing what old stuff I can use up. This is a carbine operator's course, so we're on a square range with a maximum of 50 yards. I might be able to finagle some time on the longer ranges, but it won't be "dynamic" in the way the closer stuff will be. There will be some steel shooting, which means that if you can't keep your steel core/LAP stuff separate from the other ammo, don't bring that unless you're shopping for steel.

Happy to kick in whatever's needed and whatever I can do to help on site. Thanks! |
