I’m going to have to bring a jacket to the shoot just to make it feel like normal. Looks like CLIMATE CHANGE, feels like CLIMATE CHANGE, it must be the CLIMATE is CHANGING again……..

Well it was 87 at the range yesterday and I worked in it all day, boy was it a hot one. One more day of work before the shoot and the range will be ready to go. I have spent a lot of time and money on new range targets and stands this year, hopefully it will make moving targets much easier. Thanks for your hard work, Jeff. I'm looking forward to seeing all and enjoying a fun time launching lead.

I just got back from the range, the river looks like chocolate milk and it is muddy, however by Saturday it will be dried out quite a bit.

Just wanted to tell everyone that I had more fun than I could’ve possibly imagined meeting and shooting next to you guys! I sincerely hope to be back again in the near future. Oh, and thanks for all your help, too. 👍

You did some good trigger pulling Chris, was impressive for a first timer off of a bi-pod. Was good to see my friends again, and fill my belly as well. Ones who were there will understand when I say, I'm still trying to get my heart in sync after the (shock) surprise on Sat. Still trying to get my head around it.

It was absolutely spectacular to finally meet you and the guys and do some shooting/talking with you. It was an honor to be there for your “shock surprise” 😁. It was well deserved. 👍 Looking forward to seeing you guys again soon.

I arrived home, extreme north-central Illinois, safe and sound about 8:30 central time last night. Unfortunately, two hours later I fell asleep in my easy-chair before I could log-on to this site. Of course, I'm justified now that I'm officially a senior citizen. haha
Want to let everyone know it was nice to meet some new folks and was great to see those whom I had met at the two earlier shoots I attended this year. As with the previous events, I enjoyed a fun time socializing, sharing information, stories, techniques, delicious meals and much needed laughs......oh yea, and shooting our incredible smokeless guns and still being amazed at how accurate these guns perform. Sure is fun to blast these big precision bullets way downrange and hit what we're aiming for!
Thanks to all who shared good information with me and to Jeff, Mark and others for their expert over-sight and assistance.
Thanks, Jeff, for hosting another great event. I appreciate all the work you and some of the other guys have put in to create your shooting range and with continued improvements. A job well done! Best regards to all.

It was the best weather I’ve seen for an August shoot.
Had a great time along with meeting a few new members and catching up with shooter that’s been to the challenge before.
Food was good as always.
Also, just want to thank everyone that helped put the shoot together from cooking to hanging targets, cleaning up before and after the match.

Sorry I missed the event. Getting older and not having anyone to share the long(ist) drive makes it hard. One of our dogs also had a R/R knee joing repair a couple of weeks ago and I had to be around to help with getting him out. The addition of the .22 match was nice to see. I have been doing a lot of .22 shooting this past year. Its addictive, just like muzzle loading and costly (if your competitive). My bullet and powder costs for muzzle loading went down but the rimfire ammo at $15.00 + per box has taken over that spot. Will be interested in seeing some pictures when they become available. Glad all who attended had a good time. I know I always enjoyed the ten or more events I attended.
