steel1212 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I'm ready! 'Course, I'll probably need twice that much ammo before the day's out. I'm really looking forward to it, although the thought of losing all that .308 brass... (j/k, that's what Berdan primed surplus is for!) hmmm...might have to do this next year.

elynch2007 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 The dirt work on the latest shotgun bay has started and hopefully will be done for the Ky. State Multi-gun match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Conley Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 The dirt work on the latest shotgun bay has started and hopefully will be done for the Ky. State Multi-gun match. My main man Jeff will get it done. I'm going to go by the range today to see how much he has left to do. I think on Monday he had all the trees cleared out and said that he'll start pushing dirt on Tuesday. It shouldn't take him long with a D9 dozer. Chris C.

Chris Conley Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 (edited) Bay is done minus rock. That will be done in the morning and he also gave the existing bays a facelift. Just add slugs. I'll post some pics in the morning. Chris C. Edited April 30, 2008 by Chris Conley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Conley Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Yeah I'll get them up. I'll set some targets out there to give some perspective. Gary is going to rest a little easier. He was real happy with the out come and excited to get to use that rockin pistol/slug stage. Pistol then slugs and back to pistol. I can't wait to shoot that one. Chris C.

Chris, You're talking about Slugger, right? On signal engage only T1-6 and PP1-2 with handgun, then place handgun on table as marked, retrieve shotgun and engage only T7 – 12 with shotgun slugs as visible respecting fault lines. Where would we go back to pistol? Or, am I totally missing/misunderstanding something? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had way too many irons in the fire lately. Still going to be a fun stage anyway. Sorry about that. I'll go to bed now and get some much needed sleep. Chris C.

Chris Conley Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 (edited) Here's the new shotgun bay. For those who know this is a hugh improvement to the old bay. I paced it off and I think we can shoot slugs at 60 yrds. It's going to be a real nice pistol bay also. The dozer gives some perspective as to the size. The way we ran the drainage system this morning, days of slopping around in the mud down there are over. Once he brings the rock all the way to the end it will be super nice. Chris C.

Chris Conley Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Here's the low down on the food. Triple G BBQ will provide chicken, pork, burgers, hot dogs and smoked bologna. They will also have potato salad, beans, cole slaw, chips and drinks. If any local shooters are going to the Owensboro BBQ Festival you can stop by their cookoff booth and take a sample. I'm hungry now just thinking about it. Time to go get some lunch. Chris C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Conley Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 (edited) Well the match is almost here so I figures I would announce all of the sponsors for the match. I would like to thank all of them for making this match the best we have ever put on. Also today I found out that the local newpaper is going to do a story on the match and hopefully that will get us some exposure. One thing that I would like to add. Dealing with folks in the shooting industry has been one great experience for me. Great bunch of guys and gals. This was my first crack at it this year and I'm looking forward to next years match already.

About that rain thing, since you have water for the hot how about someone to hold an umbrella over us while we shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Conley Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 (edited) The Ro's and staff are pretty friendly. You might ask the guy or gal running the timer to hold an umbrella for you. We're going to have alot of fun. I can't wait. Chris C. Edited May 26, 2008 by Chris Conley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
