Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Okay I'll try to have fun without ya

 

[mwroseberry]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

I think I'm going to be zero'n tomorrow morning at the personal range for tomorrow. That way I can freeze for about 5 min vs. all day :-D..

 

[sav338lapua]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

awwww a little snow ain't gonna hurt ya lol !!!!!!
see you guys tomorrow.

 

[jonaddis84]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

See you guys down there, hopefully the wind forecast stays true and it wont be too shabby. Hoping to get dope on the 338 out to 1800 or so, this will be her first real test.

Savage338lapua, what bullets are you shooting and what velocity?

 

[sav338lapua]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

hey shooting 300 smk's at 2750 avg. mv with a 92.0 grain load of H1000

 

[jonaddis84]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Ah nice! My Shilen barrel must have helped a bit with velocity as well, Im getting 2800 with 300 Scenars with 91.5 H1000 (same rifle). Will be interesting to compare the two rifles out to distance.

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Hey Breeze, I miss ya man! I shot with you at a couple matches a while back.
Hopefully my life changes and a bit and I start pulling triggers again. I'ld like to get back down there. I'll watch the thread.

 

[sav338lapua]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

ey sounds good jona i made my first cold bore 1st round hit with mine at 1200 yards. bringing 3 more rifles too.

 

[sav338lapua]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

hey breeze i'm bringing the coot to get to some of the other shooting positions - no walking or sliding around in pickup trucks. hehehehehe.

 

[Skigolfmike]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

I'll be there tomorrow with my son. He's promised to brave the elements with me, and, yes, I hope the forecast winds for tomorrow are correct too. (so far every time I've been there it's been the coldest day in the last 3 weeks.)

This is his last chance to do this for a while as he ships out for recruit training at Great Lakes the end of Feb.

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

How did tom do with the 300 hulk this year.Read about it last year and it got my brain working witch doesn't happen to much.sometime this year soon i am going to get a hold of him to build me one. So i was wondering how he did with it.

 

[Breeze260]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Rottenron

Give Tom a call(740.502.6530) he'll tell you all about it, we're getting ready to start building mine.

 

[Breeze260]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Woke up with sinus infection/sore throat.... staying home taking every drug known to man to get better before SHOT...

 

[Some Day]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Thanks a lot breeze,I will be given tom a call soon.

 

[Skigolfmike]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Wade - all you missed was freezing cold and wicked winds.

Thanks to all for helping spot for my son. It took a little while, but he did get a hit at 1000.

Skivy, thanks for spotting while we were freezing.

 

[dwt]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Skivy,was it alittle chilly ? LOL

 

[Topstrap]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Skivy isn't a fair weather shooter? I went out 2 years ago in Jan and is was so cold the targets were breaking when hit, had to call it off..

Topstrap

 

[skivy]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

had a great time.we did'nt break any targets but nocked one down.alot of new faces and as usual all great people!!! it was so cold the dounuts froze.lol the only thing i was upset about was tom did'nt put my big billboard target back up.maybe next time... it sure feels good being back.i hope i can go the hole season without blowing my gun up again

 

[jonaddis84]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

You guys shouldve hung around another few hours, wind died down to about nothing around 2:00 I think it was. Gave me a good window to go up to 1st position to put a 2nd round hit on the 1165 with two in a row following that, plus a few hits on the 1650 when the snow died down enough to see it.

All in all a cold day but worth the trip to prepare for the ELR match in a month.

BTW Tom, sorry about the 938 target, those 300gn pills are tough on steel when its 20 deg out.

 

[Skigolfmike]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

I know, I know. I could see it getting better while I was driving home.

You guys missed the crow that flew into a 308 round at about 800 yards while a shot was in flight to the 1K target.

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

savage338lapua, so that's the coot. i like it! maybe color change? perhaps, scarlet & grey? just kidding! wouldn't change a thing.

 

[sav338lapua]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

So how about a show of hands for the 28th?

 

[chooter]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

If the stock arrives and I can get the barrel nitrided I'm in.

 

[ncboiler]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Looks like 51 rounds max for this Saturday?

Been a while since I've had the 308 out at distance so it should be interesting.

 

[dpreston]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

me and a few friends are coming out

I am going to bring 100 rounds or so. Just in case we get some after match shooting in. It should be interesting for me also. Just got my new rig less than 4 weeks ago. New load to boot.

How things have changed...that picture is lacking a bunch of something, not sure what it is......

 

[TCA4570]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

Just stopped by to say hi and show a couple old pics.
You may see it as lacking a bunch of something, as it was taken before you ever went down.

I didn't Show those to start this as a pissing match, nor will I let it become one.

Thanks for posting those. That was my first day. The weather sucked and I really didn't hit squat with my 3 gun AR15, but had a great time.

I'm planning on being there this weekend as I'm really itching to do some shooting and BSing.

 

[Goin'Hot]

Re: Thunder Valley Precision - Ohio 2012 Schedule

What a great day that was. Really set the hook deep.

Have fun this Saturday guys.

Not sure what you thought I meant...I was talking about suppressors, not a single one in that picture

You'll see my ugly mug this weekend along with 3 other guys. Even sounds like it may be a bit warmer than last month.

See you there,
