Re: SHWW Group

A quick thanks to Carl, the RSO's and all the rest of the crew behind the scenes. We bad a great time. Always something new to learn and people to meet. More later from a real keyboard. A huge thank you to the WA crew for the optical assistance.
Must post TSI in his pink glory.

I figured if I misquoted, cut and pasted this enough, I could make this really creepy!

Actually I just "have" to give Tribe a hard time for doing so well.

so when is the next SHWW shoot?

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'"> I'm kinda partial to huckleberry, strawberry-rhubarb or marionberry pies... Guess I better find someone to partner with and attend Kettle next year, since I'm so close.

Was TSI totally color coordinated and had matching underwear and socks to go with the shirt?

Re: SHWW Group

Ranger.... with friends like these.....

Dibbs... Scott & Lucas were sporting matching pink "Billy Burger" shirts, a joint we stopped at on the way in... pretty darn funny givin' the context... but yeah... you kinda' had to be there to appreciate it....

I don't think I'd ever put strawberry OR rhubarb on any pie..... Sardines and Spam for my buddy Tyler....

Re: SHWW Group

Will there be any shoots going on around Puget Sound for the remainder of the month? Our moving truck should arrive in the next 48 hours, then I'll officially be moved in. I'm hoping to find some outdoors matches that go further than 50 yards. I have a couple of intermediate distance rifles (6.5 Grendel, 308, 260 Rem, 300 Win Mag), but nothing like a 50 BMG, Chey Tac or those types....yet.

Re: SHWW Group

Unknown. Welcome. I don't know of any upcoming matches around the sound this year. Depending on weather, etc. I may host another match up here sometime in Aug. But I doubt it. There may be a match that TSI may host in Ellensburg, but haven't heard anything concrete yet. But if you want to drive north a few hrs, & shoot with me, & some other guys let me know. I have access to steel from anywhere between pistol-1300yd, & 1800-2000yd, & 3000yd up here. Kinda pretty too, if you can see it.

Re: SHWW Group

Correction to the scores posted above. Travis was shooter #1 and should have got the 2nd place overall score, not me.

 

[mjh30]

Re: SHWW Group

Guys is there any steel still hanging out at E-Burg, as for upcoming local matches, I am not sure unknown. A good sized group from SHWW are going to Norcal, so I don't think anything is planned for the next few weeks, unless some are interested in going to E-Burg one of these coming weekends.

Team Send it may put together another match towards the end of june depends on how much work my teammate is willing to do since i get to be a single parent for 2 weeks in june while my wife finishes up her masters degree. We may also have a hunting type course in august/september ( less targets more miles on foot), this one would probably be in moses lake.

you are correct there are at least 4 of us going to sacremento next weekend, but tribe and i still have a bunch of steel out in ellensburg. Enjoy it while it is there because in the next couple weeks i will be taking mine down so it doesn't dissapear this summer. sorry guys!!!

On the bright side the search for property continues, so if anybody hears of anything under million and over 150 acres let me know. I am going to check out a couple different ones later this month but it is always tough to tell without actually seeing them.

Re: SHWW Group

Thanks guys for the fun this weekend. Am trying to figure out how to make the KF shoot an annual thing. Think we drug the Seattle weather back with us....it has not stopped raining since we got home.

Was that a pepperoni - apple pie?

Re: SHWW Group

I had a piece of Rhubarb pie today, it was pretty sweet. But I am going out for a Sicilian pie right now, hard to beat the square.

Re: SHWW Group

The other guy is Top Shot winner Ian Harrison, Alex and Ian shot together that day.

Re: SHWW Group

I was wondering if you guys could point me in the direction of a smith in western Washington who could punch out my .243 to an Ackley in a fairly short amount of time. I have e-mailed and called R Bros Rifles but haven't been able to get a hold of them. Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Re: SHWW Group

Hey guys, does anyone have a torque wrench around the lacey/olympia area that wouldn't mind helping me put a new stock on my rifle when it arrives in the mail?

I've gotta get around to buying one, one of these days.

Re: SHWW Group

This is the one I use, even on sale now.

Re: SHWW Group

Diggerline,

I have a few torque wrenches and am in the Olympia area daily. Let me know and we could meet up or you can swing down to the shop one evening and we can put it on.

I'm also in the Lacey area and I have one you could use. Just shoot me a PM.

Re: SHWW Group

7mm,

That would be great! I'll shoot you a pm when the stock shows up. I appreciate it!

 

[Diggerline59]

Re: SHWW Group

Daps, where about Lacey are you? I'm near the Amtrak station, at least until I go back to my last semester of school in Montana in august. It would be nice to be able to get out and shoot with some people a bit this summer.

dude if you have a bad itch i think you may want to have a doctor check out your man parts. last thing i want is to lay next to a guy with crotch rot.

On a less sarcastic note i am shooting this weekend but not sure if it will be local or in ellensburg. will let you know if its on the eastside.

After all these years of being a pussy, now I have "man parts"? Guess I don't have to buy tampons any more ...

Yeah, if I could find my way back to that ellensburg spot on my own, or where ever steel targets are still up.

Re: SHWW Group

Just a slight change to Pat's post. NCW Gun Club does not have a 1000 yard range. The board has made a new policy that no shots off club property are allowed.

Thanks for the head's up, Jim. That has saved me a heck of a drive. I need to win the lottery and buy an old airstrip.

Re: SHWW Group

Just a shot in the dark. Anyone from the Bellingham area happen to know an Andrew R. Powers. Goes to Western. If you do get in touch with me, as I found his wallet while I was shooting today.

 

[captnmo]

Re: SHWW Group

Ranger,

I'm going shooting this Monday. I don't know if you're free that day, but we're thinking of going to capitol forest. We're just going to do some plinking, but if we find any distance, I'll bring the Savage and you can show me a thing or two.

 

[captnmo]

Re: SHWW Group

Also, is anyone in the Fort Lewis/Puyallup area that would be willing to show me how they do their reloading? I've got a few batches done, but would just like to see someone with more experience on how they do things. I'm loading 308 for a Savage 10FCP. I just sold my Lee dies and got a set of Redding competition dies and honestly am a little over my head.

Re: SHWW Group

How easy is it to find places to shoot, either a constructed range or open public land in WA, living in the Fort Lewis area?

I am not into comps, I prefer to go mid week with out crowds.

Thoughts of moving again, closer to home...Alaska.
Thanks

ITs not that bad I live near Lewis and it's about a 30 min drive to shoot 800 yds. If you only need 300 then Lewis has a pretty decent POW range.

 

[Bigwheels]

Re: SHWW Group

It ain't easy. I spent days driving around in the mountains looking up every open road to find the areas I shoot in, & there's only 3 of them left now. Some have been over run with idiots, some have been closed due to said idiots, etc. Now I really only have 2 places to shoot, & one is snow bound most of the year.
