You gonna make the drive? Maybe we can get mtmiller out there as well.
Travis I won't be able to make it. It's a LONG way from Indy and the wife's got one more sememster of school. Come on pointer; you can make the trip out here, I can make a run east and you can be a daddy again.

If I can keep GuNR with me for the trip we might be able to work out a deal.  PS- I've always wondered about my kids being on the short end of the height bell curve for their age...

Well hey ... Looks like I may head east for this.
I can bring the 12X12 Alaknak and it sleeps 3 comfortable even 4 if we squeeze. 3 only if we want the woodstove for heat.
Guess I'll bring the GAP Rock .308 and the Rodger's 6.5-06.
More than likely be there Friday to help set up...

The "Ice Breaker Shoot" might be on my bucket list. I will have to look at my schedule as spring nears.

Yeah... probably a good idea.
I'd be willing to slow down long enough for a guy or 2 to jump in as I head N.E.
Gotta warn ya though... I have a cummins running straight pipes not too bad but she rumbles a bit.

That was the plan...but...
IMR7828ssc and the 139 scenars say otherwise. So far.
If the next round of load testing produces the results it did the other day then the 139's get the nod.

oldtrapper and I are planning on making it from Williston. I will have to check the schedule, but the dates look good for a weekend. What were the targets last year? Trying to get an idea of how the process will work. I have shot Marbuts long range course at Potomac, thinking it will be similar but different. I will have my 6.5-06AI. Have a promising load with 120bt and Hunter. First load I threw together went three in 7/16", so hoping it stays that good. Need to crony it and work up. With the 1 in 10" twist, it loves 100s, but I would like to find a load that shoots as good with 120s. Really looking forward to shooting there and meeting SOME of you.
I think, therefore I am, conservative.

I'd be surprised to see that Jesus had a 17. I figure him for a "big gun" guy. I'll bet his would shoot tho!

How much ammo?
I'm figuring on bringing a couple rifles, with 200 rounds each.
Am I in the right ballpark?
