With the barrels not anchored, wouldn't it be a reshoot on a prop failure? Course was altered by the shot. Just a thought.

Are y'all still lookimg for ROs?

Oven at about 220 degrees. Been doing it for years. Drain the excess water and leave in for about 30 minutes then air cool and you are done. Excess water might need more time. I use muffin trays for rifle brass with the base up. I find the temperature doesn't affect brass and extra time souldn't hurt. Paul : -)#

What rule set? Paul : -)#

Good to have someone else on this board who can pronounce Lafayette correctly. I also live in Lafayette down off 10. Shoot me an email and let's talk. Paul : -)# Paulmwinters@nctc.com

Fantastic! Hope to make this one now that things have slacked off. Missed it. Paul : -)#

Instead of spraying, get a gallon or so of poly, laquer, or other sealant and roll it on with a roller. The targets will turn a slightly darker brown and curl a little when you do only one side. Rolling the back as well will take the curl out. Pasters and masking take seem to stick on, but the masking tape can take a hard rain better in my experience. I use bags if that is all that is availablr, but it does slow down scoring and taping. Personally, I prefer to shoot non bagged targets, but it is a problem looking for any solution. Paul : -)#

It took a while to recover, but it was a blast. Major cudos to Mission 22 for all they did. The team members worked hard in the heat to help keep things moving. It was hot and everyone kept an eye on each other and encouraged others to stay hydrated. Thanks to all involved, Another great day at the Rock! Paul : -)#

OK, got it. Thanks. : -)#

Since playing Horner rules, is the shotgun tube restriction to hold no more than 8 round rounds for all shotguns in Tac divisions or automatically moved to open in play here? Paul : -)#

Great match! Despite to swealtering heat, it went off well and was a lot of fun. Thanks to Brian Ray and Bryan Vaught for their designs and efforts. The golf cart stage was as fun as ever and, given how many drivers couldn't stay on the road, maybe a 4x4 course with a jeep would be a good idea. Having a team on our squad playing War's 'Low Rider' at full volume as they ran was hillarious. It was great seeing everyone and smiles all around. It was a blast.....Literally. Paul : -)#

Even through all the rain, it was a good match. Thanks for having it. Now, about the weather next month? Paul : -)#

Looking forward to it. Paul : -)#

Looking forward to it. Paul : -)#

Kevin Pratt and Invictus is local for me and I have worked with him at his location of business, Yes, I do use Invictus products. Had a quad belt rig break (my fault for laying on it). It was repaired free of charge. A lot of choices, but I am quite happy with Invictus over others I have tried. Try as much as you can and see. From my perspective +1 for Invictus. Paul : -)#

Fantastic! I loved the last match. Looking forward to another. Paul : -)#

I like the round count! Paul : -)#

Fantastic! Was sick last month and missed it. Looking forward to it. Paul : -)#

Fantastic! It has been too long and I will take this as a definite sign of spring. See you there and I should have the Dutch boy with me. Paul : -)#

I have played with different focuses with contacts, but I don't think my brain will accept it. Tried a closer focus with my dominant eye and more distance with my other, but I end up with both eyes out of focus and a headache after a while. Tried stick on reader lenses but the area was too small and I wasted time moving my head looking for the right position. My conclusion is... Getting old sucks and I have learned to live with it and now I compete against myself. Not ready to go open. That is for old people and I cannot convince myself I am there yet. I can claim senior, but I already knew that. I am 58, but I will be in my prime next year. Paul : -)#

Welcome aboard. Where in TN? Macon County here. Rockcastle is a great home club. Paul : -)#

Don't know where you are, but Steve Rose of Rose Action Sports (roseactionsports.com) located in Hopkinsville KY is another option. He does great work. Built a friends 1100 when new, built my M2, and has worked on several of other guns for me. Does a great job and I recommend him without hestation. If you shoot in this region, it is not uncommon to see half of guns on a table with a RAS sticker on them. Paul : -)#

I got about 8". Most of it is gone today. Supposed to be in the 60s Saturday. Weird winter. Paul : -)#

MidTn shooters in Manchester put on good matches. When the weather cooperates, they usually have 3 gun matches as well. Rockcastle in Park City, just north of Bowling Green is my home club. They have USPSA 4th weekend, great local 3 gun matches and many major matches. Owensboro is also close by. We are in shooter heaven with the hills around us. Paul : -)#

Lots of ranges around. What's your shooting focus to start? Paul from Macon County : -)
