Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

It is supposed to be windy tomorrow and rain Sunday. Right now it is beautiful here in Raton. Maybe I'll try to get out there tomorrow.

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

I'll also be bringing a couple TBAC cans for demo.

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Anybody know if there a preferred hotel of the two listed on Zak's website?

 

[johnAE308]

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

There's also the Oasis Motel and restaurant. I've stayed there a couple times. Probably a step down from Zak's recommendations, but it suited me.
Regret I will not be able to attend this match (doc's orders). You all hold hard and good luck. Send pics.

 

[Cmonroe]

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Can't wait to meet you guys. I took my main rifle in to have some machine work done on Monday. The next day I read about this match. I was bummed at first but then I decided to throw my long range varmint gun into tactical mode so I will see you guys there.

 

[Lowlight]

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

I'm on the fence at this point, I don't have any ammo here for my 7WSM, and I'm not sure I want to go at it with a 308, but we'll see I have some options and I'm supposed to hit the range on Friday, so I maybe able to put something together I feel comfortable with.

You never know

you guys scare me, I may have to stay home and shoot it via simulation on the internet.

 

[Zak Smith]

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

If bringing a varmint gun, be sure to comply with the caliber requirements: 6mm up to .300WM, muzzle velocity less than 3200 fps.

 

[Zak Smith]

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

I am bringing a 5/8-24 model 30P for G- to demo along with anyone else who wants to (and has those threads). Also might bring the 300 Fireball if I have any ammo loaded in time.

 

[Lowlight]

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

I just checked, we have tickets to the Opera, or something Saturday Night. I thought they were for Friday, but those are for the 18th... So I'm no driving down at O Dark 30...

July and Aug are the only ones were my schedule looks open at this point.

Kind of bummed.

 

[Cmonroe]

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

My varmint gun meets the rules, it's a 270 wsm with a 150 going a little slow at 2996 fps.

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

ColoWyo , we all usually stay at the Robin Hood . The plan right now is the people helping with set up are going to meet at the gate at 1 pm on sat. and then after set up we will open the gate back up and can start shooting on the site in range at 3 .

LL , You have plenty of time to sleep when Your dead , I'll pat Your head for You and make sure Geo. gives You a reach around this time .

 

[9H_Cracka]

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

I had composed a post that said all the fags stayed at the Robin Hood but thought wiser and did not post it. Looks like it would have been appropriate after all. Chuck is clearly out of the closet, or at least arranging trysts for others, in hope of getting an invite.

No wonder y'all seem so relaxed at 7 am on a Sunday morning.

 

[johnAE308]

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

9H,

Is lighting up fellow competitors part of your secret pre-match psy-ops strategy?
If so, I'm on to you

You all have fun at the match, whatever that entails. (Although I'm no longer sure I want to see the pictures)

 

[ColoWyo]

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Thanks guys. I get off work @ midnight on Friday night, but I should be able to make it down by 1:00.

 

[c ward]

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

9H , pimpin ain't the same as doin the deed .

ColoWyo , Shooting on sat. afternoon is always better than trying to do it in the 45 min before the match . If You don't make it by 1 we swing by the gate when we are 1/2 way through set up and let any body there in and after set up its open again . We can shoot from 3 - 5 sat afternoon with targets from 240 to 980 , all steel .

 

[ColoWyo]

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Thanks C.W. Sounds like it will be a lot of fun. I'll load up a few extra rounds for Saturday.

 

[c ward]

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Weather still looks good , 65 and sunny with a lot of wind . Hope to see some of You this weekend .

Damn my luck.

Oh well. Any day you don't wake up face down in a gutter is a good day.

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

No wind would be nice , both NOAA and The Weather Chanel sowed 10 - 20 mph . There weathermen though and they are about as trustworthy as politicians

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

I watched the early morning of this match as I was travelling without a rifle. Very well organized, great location, challenging, easy paths from station to station. Hoping to attend the match in May.
