I had a couple extra green lights show up, so I'm pretty set. Hoping the rain holds off this weekend so I can do final zero check on a couple of the AR's. And I ordered dies for the .257 Kimber, so I'm hoping I might get lucky & have it ready to go, if Ready wants to use it.

Looking forward to trying out one of your AR's, Patrick.
Thank you for your kind offer.

No problem. 5.56, .300 Blackout, or .308? One of each should be ready.

Good to know we don't have to pack for the unpredictable. I'll add rain gear to some jeans and long sleeve t-shirts and be good to go, I think.

Poboy (Mike) PM'd to let me know he has previous commitments which prevent him from paying a visit. Next time, Mike. You're always a nice addition to camp when you can make it.

1.Up to you
2.No, don't worry about the chiggers. You will not even know that you have them until your back home. Then you will itch for 4 days or so then all itching will go away.
Permethrin your cloths before you get here. No worry about any bugs. Boots too. It needs time to dry on cloths and boots.
Not your underwear, but the hunting cloths.

I would bring some light weight rain gear of some kind. May see a little on first hunting/shooting day.

Went ahead and ordered my license. Hope it comes in time, paid extra to expedite. No need to expedite all you need is a copy of the transaction after you paid.

Ok ranch manager checked in with me today. Looks like we will be upper 70's and maybe 80 degrees. I likey! Been no shooting on the ranch for a few weeks so piggies should be active for us
Some Snakes are already out and by next week with the warm temps they will all be out.
If anyone has any food allergies please speak up now so we can let the cook know
Arrival on Wed. is any time after 1:00pm
They will have someone stationed at the gate so no worries about getting in. Cell service is as follows ATT is good,Verizon OK, Sprint just toss your phone in the brush and forget about it.
Bob there is a bobcat or 2 in on the ranch he's been seeing tracks and crap, more outside of the fenced area and he feels thats the better spot for predators but not as many hogs out there
