Steve - Had a great time Saturday - as usual. Finally got a hit on the start plate on the mover stage - and four hits on the mover! Gotta toot my own horn - it may never happen again. Thanks to the Wirth family for all the sweat equity they put into running a fun & challenging match. Hope to have good load & data for the Bighorn for the Sept. match.

Hey Dennis, I noticed that when I was putting the spreadsheet together, excellent shooting! Although, now that you have it figured out it's probably time to make some changes to it!

 

[areskslan]

Please don't! I finally got three hits on it as well!

Had a great time at this match. I think I am addict to it now. A lot of stuff I need to work on.

Me too! And the cold bore steel.

 

[RobertB]

Yes, had a great time. Wish in would have stuck with my 4 in the kyl and trusted my gut on the mover but I had a blast. Great guys, great match, great people putting on the match. I'll be back if I'm in the area again.

Steve,
I think I had it figured out last time we shot it - finally pulled my head out & remembered that I had the lead dialed in instead of holding off.

One thing's for sure though - the AMR reticle in the Kahles scope works really well for this sort of stuff. Much as I like the Bushy's G2DMR, the AMR's got it beat far as I'm concerned.

Wow. Someone rocked that 22-250 on Sunday.

 

[codemancode]

I live like 90 mins from there and would love to come out. In fact, I cant believe i'm just now hearing about these matches. Sounds/Looks like a ton of fun!

 

[SPR45]

Codeman, come on out and join us! The September match will be our last for 2014.

 

[SPR45]

The last match of 2014 will be on Saturday, September 6.

This will be a Saturday only match , no Sunday match as we will be having a small prize table when we are done shooting for the day.

You will need 60 rounds ammo for your rifle and no pistol at this one.

Sign up is from 8:30 to 9:00, then the match begins.

Hope to see you here!
Steve

 

[High-Gear]

I plan on being there Steve. I'll try to get Josh to come along for a tie breaker!

Kills me I couldn't make the last match let alone a few others. Glad you all had a good time! Great place to dive in and shoot. Beginners have all sorts of assistance if they want it, but very challenging for even some of the most advanced shooters out there. Class act. Keep up the great work!

 

[High-Gear]

I wish I hadn't let you guys Peer Pressure me into taking a chance at that next plate in the "Know Your Limit". I'll know better next time!

Just trying to help you out there. Push you to your limit, then past a little if it will cost you some points!

Had a great time, suffered from some brass having issues and a bolt failure. Still was able to manipulate the bolt (however slowly until it completely crapped out with my Gerber Multi tool).

Can't wait till next year!!

 

[killer-e]

Big thanks to Steve And family for all the great matches this year. Can't wait until next year see you in the spring. (sorry for all the holes in the targets)

A few photos from the match.

 

[SPR45]

I've been contacted by several people wanting to know about next years schedule so I am going to post it here now then start a new thread next spring.
We are going to run Saturday/Sunday matches again like this year. Same match each day, pick your day or shoot both if you want. Most matches will be the first Saturday/Sunday of the month except April (Easter) and July (4th). If we have a match in March it will be a last minute call depending on weather and hunting schedule.

2015 Matches:
April 11, 12
May 2,3
June 6,7
July 11,12
August 1,2
September 5

Thanks
