Anybody plan on heading out to ASC this weekend?
I finally got off my butt and handloaded some ammo for the bolt gun, and have some other new gear to try out as well. Sat. or Sun. doesn't really matter to me, just trying to plan ahead. |
|
Looking like Tomball GC for me, on at least Sat. There is the first BR match of the season and I am going to give it a try.
Maybe ASC on Sunday for some long-range stuff. Depends on how bad it is on Sat.... I think Tim and TX65 are hitting ASC on Sunday. |
|
What kinda event is this?? Does Tomball have a website? |
|
|
Hey Tonster!! Benchrest competition - Gulf Coast Region Unlimited and Gulf Coast Region Heavy Varmit Championship. The Unlimited is on Sat and the HV on Sunday. Tomball Gun Club does not have a website. I have only shot up there a couple of times, it is a closed membership club (I am not one ) and you have to go with a member. Sure is a beautiful range though... |

|
Silly me I thought that BR was some type of Black Rifle event Good luck at the shoot!!! |
|||
|
Maybe if I get my SPR upper by then.....It's lookin like its gonna get here monday though
If it does get here, I'll go shoot it with the Irons on it (scope is still in transit as well) |
|
Whats wrong with shootin' the new FN??? |
|
|
Thas actually a funny story....
It starts like this...."I liked the FN really well.....but" ,and I think you know how it ends |
|
Past tense already?? Well damn, just....damn. You go through rifles faster than Volder goes through scopes.... Sooooooooo tell us about the new SPR. If it is what I am looking for, should I just go ahead and put in my offer now?? |
|
|
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA |
||
|
Yes...the FN is past tense, and yes I do got through rifles pretty fast.
The SPR is gonna be pretty nice Got the upper from ADCO WOA upper WOA B/BC/CH WOA 18" SS SPR contour Barrel (contoured by WOA from a wilson match blank) Daniel Defense 12.0 rail Flip-up front and rear sights Topped with an IOR M2 4X24 scope with .223 cam sitting in an Armalite 1 piece mount Stag arms lower with standard M4 collapsible stock Yeah, you can go ahead and put in your bid now and I'll let you know if you win |
|
what's with these morning meets on Sunday? That's one of the few days I don't have to wake up at 7 to go to work, but I guess some don't have to do that all week.
|
|
Sun AM sounds like the popular vote so far, and we do live in a democracy. Looks like the weather will be a bit better than Sat as well; see y'all then.
|
|
Man, wats the deal Walker and Marine2f2? Neither of you 2 can keep a rifle for longer than 3 month?
|
|
why are you complaining Timinator....you always get my hand me down gear anyway
|
|
I fugging love it!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
|
|
sold your rifle to Tim? |
|
|
How about 600? Or are you scared Tim???? |
||
|
I tried to qualify for the 600, but someone shot an extra hole in my target.
|
|
Wait a minute. Does this mean you will show up? |
|
|
How the hell you expect to shoot at 1k then?? Try again at 300 tomorrow.... |
|
|
Yep. You going to get the upper and leave, or do you want to shoot it tomorrow? |
|
|
If I had my upper and my new optics I'd take you all to the 600
|
|
I will be there shooting hte 308, more loads to test out. Should be there before 9 AM.
Call me if you guys want any Starbucks. |
|
Negro pleeezzz. That thing is prob good for 100, and not much more. |
|
|
Buddy, if I can qualify out to 500 yds with a POS issue M16A2 and Iron Sights, I think my SPR might be able to reach just as far.....especially if I'm shooting 75 or 77 gr.
|
|
Do I hear a challenge? I have a new toy just for this little war. Consider this smack talking! Also met a group of pretty guys that seems to do alot of shooting, hopefully they will come on here and join the Htown group. |
|
|
I am fairly new here but for some reason I am already scared |
|
|
I hope to God he omitted the word "cool" or "nice" from the above comment.
|
|
What's the matter Mark, don't you think you are "pretty" in Tim's eyes?
|
|
Hahahahahha
No I havnt caught the TRG disease yet. It was supposed to be pretty cool guys. Some of them come on here eeryonce in a while. Besides, most of yall cant say shiet, since yall dont even goto the range!!!! |
|
regardless of what you supposedly were trying to type, I still think you and your 6.5 are gay.
So you might as well get rid of that black freefloat tube thats on it and get a pink one, you're not fooling anyone |
|
Good one, I can think of a use for that tube if I decide to pull it off, but wont it be too loose Marine2f2?
|
|
Tim, what happened to the nice group of 5 in the white I saw in another thread? |
|
|
Tim what time did you leave? I was sighting in the K31 and new scope, walked over there and you were gone.
|
|
I drove over to the 100 to look for you after a while, I saw you lug some rifles back to your Exploder. I saw the car but didnt see you anywhere so I left.(Lack food was making me seeing black spots.) |
|
|
lol, yeah I had 2 new bolt guns I needed to test for functionality, then I dumped them back in the car. I stayed on the 100 line shooting the K31 until about 6 pm.

American Shooting Centers, on Westheimer off HW6. |
|
|
The holes were shot way to the edge of the paper, but their rules are no holes other than the 5 in the center white. |
|
|
American Shooting Center. If you ever make the mistake of shooting there at the 100 yard range or closer, you may never go backh You have to qualify at 300 for any shooting farther then 300, but they do have a 400 and 600 yard berm (500 yard stands on the 600 yard range). Handgun's a joke, though if you wanna drop $16 to shoot steel it's OK. |
|
|
for all the snobbiness put on this forum about ASC, it's still one of the best places to shoot in Houston outside of your own private land, and where the 200 and beyond are un attended by the range management.
if you don't like it, don't fucking go, it's not that hard to understand. -mark |
