Practice, crap.. to late for me to change my plans.

I am keeping my excuses thou.. my ammo has a 100es, broke ribs before the last weekends match.. but honestly isn’t the real issue.. I'll find a better excuse.. before Sunday..

After the Slo match on Sat.. entire side is kinda yellow.. That's from just bellow my armpit to the belt area..
Doesn't really effect the shooing as much as it does the fun..

ES had a couple IPAs and used 292 neck bushing instead of the 289. With all the jump I have with the 123s I think the bullets are not getting consistent ignition. I loaded a shit ton.. almost out maybe 2 more matches.. really not to bad out to 700 or so if the targets are fair. Prone sized targets, well it kinda sucks but oh well.

I am coming, but committed Saturday because I thought the thing was canceled- But instead of leaving Friday and shooting NRL22 Saturday, need to leave my house Sunday morning around 2am yuk...

Just don’t hug me or make me laugh to hard - lol

PS what is the station 25.5inHg?

ill try my best to keep my hands to myself but cant guarantee it LOL!!

so you have to keep your rifle pointed up so the bullets dont fall out before you shoot? got it LOL....this is why i keep my loading on a smaller scale so when/if i F up its not so hard to fix.

Definitely not. What we got was more rugged (although a far cry from the Land Rovers I used to drive).

We bought an X3 because my wife kept seeing the Avenal dirt on her bitch bucket and concluded “it no longer addressed the use case”.

His new car literally makes light sculptures- Such a first world problem.

@seansmd’s almost doing 4w drifts at 90 in the rain on 152.. Mario is his first name

I am not low enough drag for either of them

Lol sounds like your fibbing to make me feel better, other than the two prone stages that I basically gave up on, the ribs were not the issue :).. I was lost trying to figure out what berm was what, then mashing my trigger... I don’t have a valid excuse..

Btw I saw some very good shooting today, and you schooled a few of us on several stages.. nice shooting!

First match was at Sac Valley in January. Stormed like crazy but was a great time. Also shot the Tehama match which was a great time as well. Signed up for another Tehama match next weekend. Having a blast so far and trying to keep at it this year.

You did really well, given what you were dealing with. I, too, was impressed at how quickly you changed out the scope rings.

Also, @Diver160651 deserves some serious props. For those reading along, here’s what happened: @2aBaCa showed up and needed to zero his new rifle (first bolt). @Diver160651 helped him, but when @Swoodhouse19 told them they had to stop because it was time for us to get started, there was still an offset between POA/POI. @Diver160651 the gets out his phone and works out the DOPE for the determined offset for every target in the match booklet.

I ended up shooting with @2aBaCa, and he did damned well given that situation and it was his first match!

This is the kind of treatment new shooters can expect at the Avenal match. @Swoodhouse19 is a stand-up dude and runs a great match. @Diver160651 pitches in to support new shooters, and there are a bunch of other great guys who will help anyone there.

@M113A3 i hope you’ll join us down there!

Hi Chris - sorry for the long delay in my reply... The short answer is yes I do need to take a trip down there with you. Glad you are now part of the little group of shooters I am in! We also need to go to the Tehama range\match.
