LS101 and I are looking for feed back on participation intrest in a 2 day Sat/Sun, all steel out to 1000+++ yards event. Looking at early-mid July, 25-30 shooters, 8-10 per squad, camp over night on site with a dutch oven dinner. Would the requirment of an ATV/UTV be a deal killer?? The site is east of Oakley, 50 miles east of Salt Lake City, at 8000+ feet on 2500+ acres of private ground.
Cost in the $150 area. Thoughts and input please.

Re: Northern Utah PCPR 2013 Challenge at Altitude

I'd come up for an event like that. I don't have an atv but I'd figure out how to get one if I got in.

Thanks again Leo for your work at the USSS, I had a lot of fun.
 
Re: Northern Utah PCPR 2013 Challenge at Altitude

We kicked around the ATV thing and believe a 4 wheel drive truck, suv or even a modified trail tested jeep will do just fine. If you would take it hunting, she should be GTG.
 
Re: Northern Utah PCPR 2013 Challenge at Altitude

Looks like there will be enough interest! Let the REAL planning begin!
This property really has some awesome senary and great natural obstacles. I can't wait.
Thanks Guys.
 
Re: Northern Utah PCPR 2013 Challenge at Altitude

Looks like the intrest is there. Look for details the first part of February, we should have a feel for the snow volume and timing for access on the mountain by then. Thanks for all the input and offers for help, you know we will be needing all the hands, eyes and ears we gan get. Looks like we will be putting a bunch more targets together this winter.

Re: Northern Utah PCPR 2013 Challenge at Altitude

Hmmm....Cost is reasonable (about the cost of a box of shells). I've got an Isuzu Trooper that goes pretty good. How many rounds do I get to put down range? How much of my own food would I have to bring? How many targets a mile or more out (or is this a competition for the <span style="font-style: italic">little guns</span>?) I'M INTERESTED!!

2500 acres is nearly 4 square miles. There should be room for some <span style="font-weight: bold">serious long range</span> shooting!

Re: Northern Utah PCPR 2013 Challenge at Altitude

Mrjimsfc, good questions. We will provide one dinner included in your registration fee, along with water across the course.You would be responsible for any other consumables. This is not going to be an ELR competition. It will be geared towards the precision rifle shooter with targets ranging from 300 to maybe 1100 yards. Like utahsroke said details will be out a little later, but round count should be in the 150 range.

 
Re: Northern Utah PCPR 2013 Challenge at Altitude

OK, time to bring out the old "06" (little gun).

Another question, is this going to be a KD range or do we need ranging equipment? Wind? Well there's the real challenge. How about putting up a picture from Google Earth showing the area and courses of fire you're talking about?
 
Re: Northern Utah PCPR 2013 Challenge at Altitude

And happy to bring a bunch of Northern Utah boys that can create a nearly religious experience with their dutch oven cooking, spin wrenches on busted ATV/Jeeps and shoot pretty damn far to boot.
 
Re: Northern Utah PCPR 2013 Challenge at Altitude

Wow, the intrest is great! COF? Are you kidding, this was a concept 20 days ago. There will be some UKD, round count 180ish plus a pistol stage or two (Poker Cards for $$$).Camp onsite at our staging base. Our matches in the past have not centered on a prize table, LS101 and I are not ones to solicit. The venue, comradery and bull shit stories are hard to top.
The timing is also subject to the Hide Cup dates, talk about a prize table. Keep the ideas coming.
 
Re: Northern Utah PCPR 2013 Challenge at Altitude

I'd love to come play. I should have my 260 back next month. (its been out for several months now) Cut it down from 28" to 26" so i twould still fit in my gun case with the new Muzzle break. And he recut the chamber while he was at it to clean up the throat a little.
One thing I dont have as an ATV...but I have a toboggin I can tie to the back of Chillers Prius.
I can also help you guys with anything you need help with.

I'll also talk to my Vortex guy and see about a few items for the table. Shouldnt be a problem.
