cjl32 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I'm going to try my best to make it Sam. Maybe even get my buddy from North Carolina to come down and try his hand at a rifle match. Chad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjl32 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Sam, Plans made and hotel reserved. I'll see you on Saturday morning and I did convince my buddy in N. Carolina to give it a try. Also, my Christmas gift must of gotten lost in the mail as I haven't received it yet. You can go ahead and get me something else and I'll pick it up at the range. And while you're getting it, go ahead and get yourself something.......something real nice. Chad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopalong Posted January 15, 2010 Author Share Posted January 15, 2010 Chad, Sounds good. Christmas present was sent long ago, I'll try and track it down for you. Now where is that box of used buffs ????? Looks like we'll have a good crowd. Hope we can be up to the Steel city standards. Hop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike P Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 You might consider that if there is a place where going prone is required that to be really fair you should just hog out that spot where it will hold water, then its the same for everyone, start to finish. I mean if it starts to dry out later in the day you can just add more water to keep it fair, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopalong Posted January 26, 2010 Author Share Posted January 26, 2010 Now the latest weather says rain/sleet/ice on Friday. Saturday will be COLD but clear as will SUNDAY MAtch is STILL on, you look at your road conditions and decide. Remember it is a 20 dollar match, with no trophies ect. so you make up your own mind at the time. HOP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjl32 Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Sam, I suggest that you have a couple cans of bright orange paint just in case we're shooting the steel in snow. Chad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICE and Snow to be an hour or so NORTH into Tennessee. USE your own Judgement on road conditions. I will not be very mad for somebody coming late Saturday, but please plan accordingly. HOP LATEST WEATHER, AS OF FRIDAY MORNING, 10AM CST: Currently snowing, with more snow and ice on the way, and accumulations of snow & ice--instead of rain--are farther south (into Corinth) than expected. Please use your own judgement about the roads. The match is still on for the locals, but the roads will be bad. Take care, Elizabeth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
