I'll be bringing at least one of them, none for sale at this time though.
it'll be my private stock
It'll be 2 850's 22 and a 177, my old faithful Welby 2000 and a "tuned" Marauder.
They are all very boring to shoot and have not been out in a while because of that.
All of them can produce around a 3/8" full mag group at 25 yards.
All the 22's running at around 930fps with CP'sand the 177 at 950fps with Kodiak's.
I have not shot further than 25yardsfor so long now, I don't think I can any more.
This is one of the reasons I am looking forward tothis shootsomuch.
Is Joel going to be there?
Man I can't wait!

I will not sell you the 634 until you can pronounce "Ceska Zbrojovka" after three beers.

Or unless you want to trade your BSA Stutzen and your 397.

Hello everyone,


Looking forward to a great day of shooting, trading, and buying.  

I have a couple of cases of Paint Balls that I can bring if we have something to place them on  2 X4's etc.

I also have a couple of target and Cow bells to bring.

If you need any help setting up, please call...

Well it looks like showers are a possibility but I think we can overcome that.  If anyone has an awning they are welcome to bring it just in case.  We have 21 confirmed attending and five pending plus several queries so should be fun.  I will start setting up around 9 so anyone that wants to show up early to help is welcome, especially if you have an interest in shooting field target or steel chickens since I have no experience in these areas as to what lane width is preferred, distance, reasonable placement, etc.  Just looks like fun :)
 
For the late joiners a recap.  Time is from 10-5.  We will have two shooting areas.  The open target area out to about 50 yards and the more wooded area for FT and Silhouette.  Tables for shooting, eating, trading, selling, etc.  Two gas grills and several coolers.  Have a cousin cooking up a brisket.  Will have some simple gun racks setup for about 40 guns.
 
David is bringing the target collection.
 
You will need to bring chairs, ice, food, drink, shooting items, etc.  Awnings appreciated if the weather looks damp.  If it looks like the weather is going to be a problem we can reschedule for the following Saturday the 17 as a backup.  If this happens I will send out and email on Oct 9th.  Any questions give me a call at 817-919-5260.

If you are planning to come and haven't already contacted me send me an email please.  Don't want to run out of tables.

Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Am I one of the confirmed 21 Ron?  Hope so, I will be coming home from Kansas late Friday night, but I have already gotten the nod from my wife to have a shootout day, so I WILL be there unless I get hit by a bus or something.  I will also be bringing a few guns to swap/trade/sell, as well as some other airgun fodder that needs a good home....and if anyone missed it, I NEED an R-9, so if you have one sitting all quiet in a corner getting no attention, bring it along, I may have a home for it!

Just wanted to thank everyone that was able to attend!  Great group of people, 24 at last count.  And for those that weren't able to make it look for something around March/April as long as it doesn't conflict with someone elses shoot.

Here are some pics courtesy of Roald.

Should have some more coming from at least one other source.
