You should have. Are you going to be sticking around for the second match? </div></div>

I think so, I'll be around at least the first day to give you hell

I need a little vacation so I'm doing the train up. It didn't really make sense to do the train up and then have two days of down time in between. It will be nice to just shoot instead running a spotting scope and firing line like I have the last 8 months, lol.

Bring my sidekick with you. I'll mix the drinks.
 
Re: Roll Call

I'll be there 10-11th. Really looking forward to it. Some questions here, and I hope I didn't miss them in my search efforts.

People who are flying, are you going to able to make the 11 lb ammo weight restriction, or are you shipping your ammo (UPS)?

Also as far as kitting goes, will hip holster, and two pistol mag holders suffice? I tried to look at videos of the bash/SHC and got the impression that I didn't need to carry spare rifle mags on my person and will keep my on person gear light if I can do so.

Cheers,

Re: Roll Call

Bryan, in the past, holster and two mag pouches have been enough. I think last year we had one stage in which a maximum of 25 pistol rounds could be expended, so unless you are taking a 7 shot 1911, three mags (one in the gun and two in pouches) should be enough. As for rifle mags, you will need to carry spares on you. Most stages won't require magazine changes for 10rnd mags, but some, like the mover stage, will. I have yet to see anyone use more than one spare rifle mag though.

You might make the 11 lbs restriction if you aren't doing the train-up as you'll really only need about 100 rounds of rifle and 50 rounds of pistol. With the extra 300 rounds of rifle and 150 pistol for the trainup, I had to send some in the mail.

Good luck!

Re: Roll Call

I've always been told to not count on zeroing at the facility, but we we given ample time to check zero at the Cup earlier this year.

True, I was out of beer and bourbon so I was mixing scotch with Sprite and holding my nose.

That sounds like one hell of a sight in.

Hold your tongue! Your taste in alcohol is like Shankster's taste in women! Plus, I seem to recall you enjoying some of my scotch at the Cup.....neat as a matter of fact. At least you like a good cigar.


As for scotch being the official drink of the Bash......we do make quite a showing. I think in terms of shear volume, it rivals the XX. I will be without my primary "Brother of the Barley", for this match, though, so it wont quite flow like water as it has in years past. When I cant hit the target, I can still hit the bottle.
 
Re: Roll Call

There are rumors of a Macallan 12 making a one-way voyage from Michigan this year (that is, if Stiggy, Nick, and Chris can keep their hands off it in the van).

If I ever commit a felony, I'll leave my travel humidor at the scene. It is covered in MD Shooter's finger prints......

Sevenmm had ranged them at seven yards from the table and, fortunately, they had not noticed us at all. Rich, at some personal risk to his health, went in for the kill.

Re: Roll Call

I will be there the with Graham, Matt, and Chris the 10 and 11, I am going to pull another all nighter on Tuesday to get the last of the prize table fodder together, so the alcohol will be safe from me, I will be past out cold until Texarkana at least.

I only hope Rich didn't set the bar too high the first time we had "dinner" together. But I don't want to play smell my finger anymore. Mung tends to stay under the finger nails.
