Team match?

Sid one of the earlier post has some pics on it in the competion section. The only other 600 yard range in MS is in Pascagoula along with a 1,000 yard range. They have a real nice 600 yard range at Palo Alto in Donaldsonville, La just south of Baton Rogue.
Up north there is a 600 yard range just north east of Memphis. Come on and make the drive we would be glad to have you maybe we can give you the bug. Sorry Limbic there will not be a team match I just used one of my generic fliers. We will start the team matches back up in September.

Oh come on down Sid....I swear you get bit by the bug.....real laid back...They are good to the newbies...There's gonna be a pile of us at this match

I wish ya'll would have these when I am off Sometimes working 14 on and 14 off has some disadvantages

Thought you was shooting a 308 this next time around

well my son is coming he shoots a 308 in ftr class so to keep from beating him i am shooting in open .

I'll have the blowers to set up on the firing line, will bring another shop fan for the pits. My canopy is toast will have to pick up another one at Wally World this week. Going to be shooting the Savage Model 12 FT/R .308 that I have working with.

See Ya'll Saturday.

I won't be there. My son has his first two soccer games on saturday. I've been sneaking out to Mag early in the morning. Shooting my BRX some but not much as to not wear out the barrel too fast. I'm pushing 1500 rounds and my new barrel wont be here till Thanksgiving. I've also been fireforming 308 Lapua brass from my 260 and loading some 280 to shoot in my 280AI. Maybe trying to sneak some work in there as well.

Wish i could make it, i like shootin my 300wm beside somebody with a .223
