:blush: Isn't there some laws that cover minors in those situations......Oh that's right....it's IOWA

That's Arkansas you're thinking of, mate.

(Of course, even Arkansas is in the northern hemisphere.....) ;)

Well i am now one c-more away from having Sarah geared up to shoot open hope it arrives soon :)

That's sweet. Isn't that my 617???

You might be able to buy it cheap. The only time he used it, I whooped him. :roflol:

Any beats on how well you do against that gun in Iowa?

It ain't the arrow. It's the Indian.

Dave and I are staying at the Casino. The place is sweet.

That explains why we couldn't get the honeymoon suite with the heart-shaped hot tub. A couple of guys from FL beat us to it :surprise:

Speaking of hot tubs ....

Here's what awaits y'all in Osceola.

Damn, who's that fine looking young man in the front left? :D

Booked rm for David, Paul, and the boys at Casino for July 2nd (King rm with queen couch) Couldn't get a rm for 3rd :angry2: and on the 4th have to switch to a double.

Anybody have any pull with the Casino? :unsure: The guys would hate to have to get out the air mattresses and bunk in someone elses room for the 3rd. :devil:

Thanks

What, no camping this year??

The rooms are big with plenty of floor space. I'm sure it will work out.

usually if you are already there, the staff of most hotels will work with you to get you a room and usually will let you keep the room you have. Good luck later rdd

The X17 portion of 3 Days of Revo will be run on 3 ranges. 6 courses of fire (2 per range) in the morning and 3 courses of fire (1 per range) in the afternoon. There will be approximately 15 shooters per range.

To finish in a reasonable amount of time we are requiring speedloaders (please have at least 5). I spoke to Dave Skrzela (ds-10-speed@hotmail.com) last week. He is bringing some speedloaders and loading blocks to the match for sale. Please contact him if you need a specific model.

We will discourage sorting cartridges from spent brass at the line. Please bring a container to dump brass and cartridges into after each run. You can sort after you are off the line. Various containers will work but we have found a shotshell belt to be efficient. The belt Craig is wearing can be found at Walmart for $12 (I've seen them at 2 stores in Iowa and 1 in Tulsa, they are sold under Bob Allen, Winchester, and Remington brands). It has three pockets: 1 for loaded speedloaders, 1 for empty speedloaders, and 1 to hold cases and cartridges. Carmoney said he might rotate his 45 degrees and use it as a loincloth (I guess he wore out the assless chaps).

Hope this helps. Please contact me, Mike or Sam if you have any questions.

The road to the range is 680th Ave.

680th avenue is at mile marker 163 on highway 30.

It is 4.6 miles from the town of Nevada's 19th street overpass to 680th avenue.

It is 1.9 miles from highway 65 to 680th avenue.

You will turn north off of highway 30 onto 680th avenue which is a gravel road. It is 1.0 miles to the range. The obligatory IPSC targets with arrows and marked 3DR will be posted.

The first picture is of the highway 30/680th avenue interchange looking east (you will be coming from Ames or Nevada). The second picture is looking west (coming from highway 65). The third picture is what you see when you turn north on 680th avenue.

Picnic tables or something so we can load speedloaders between stages? I doubt anyone is coming with 50 loaded speedloaders. I've got 6 for instance.

We have plenty of tables to load on and to set your stuff on.

Hopefully everyone will have enough speedloaders and will not be messing around at the line sorting out the spent rounds from the empties.

Just trying to keep things moving smoothly...
