Re: Thunder Valley Precision (TVP) Steel Shoot 1-3
Shooters,
I just wanted to say thanks to all for showing up and braving the low temps....
We had a great turn-out and I was glad to see it as well as others.
Again, I'm sorry for the steel situation...I'm working on the final design this week. The cold was to much for the steel drops/stems I used...although a tempory fix I expected it to perform better.
The match allowed us to produce enough revenue to complete the rest of the steel project. We thank you very much for your support and we are looking forward to the next shoot. Target issues will be slim to none...I will be testing all targets with the .338 Lapua at 200 yards to withstand the punishment to ensure minimum break downs.
Also, we will have earlier start times from now on. Especially when it warms up. Also...more strict time limits...done in 8 min..no exceptions as before. New shooters will have 10 min...if it's their first time.
With the higher turn-outs we have to be patient and tweek the format. I received lots of e-mails and PM's thanking me for the match...I appreciate the kind words and I felt bad about the target break-downs...but it seems alot of shooters had a good time anyway and learned alot about their equipment and themselves.
Thanks,
