Basic Schedule is SET.
Wednesday, 17 October 2018 - many people arriving, getting into Phoenix. Pre-shoot prep will go down this day, as well as numerous trips to the airport. We need to coordinate arrival times of flights, if flights haven't been made.
The FIRST person arriving, that is confirmed, lands in Phoenix at 9:10am local. If we can KEEP arrival times to "sometime in the morning" of the 17th, then we can accomplish alot more. Think about that, if you're a flyer... Or get your own rental car...
Thursday, 18 October 2018 - first day on the range. We arrive, set up short-course action, and y'all get your lead out. Just do it,shoot it, get it out of your system. We "refine" the range that day, add 300 to 450 through one canyon, and out to 660 to the north, for intermediate range. Night shoot will happen on that night.
Friday, 19 October 2018 - Long Range Day. Our max limit is 2200 yards - we'll only have 2 guns that can do it, both in .338 Lapua Magnum. We can set up just about anything shorter than that, too,and we already have known-distances at 500 and 845 yards, confirmed. We'll go WAY longer than that, this trip. I ALMOST bought a .416 Barrett for this one event, just to fuk up the two .338 LM guys. There's gonna be a .416 Barret at the Fall Shoot next year, count your money now... Make your bets. I'm taking your money...
Saturday, 20 October 2018 - back to Base Camp, with more short-range and intermediate work. Many competitions will go down this day, feelings are gonna get hurt, butts will hurt, and somebody's walking away BRAGGING...
Sunday, 21 October 2018 - High Angle Day. Last day out there. Short-range work will get shut down for this - because we would be DOWNRANGE of your target area, when we're up in the hills, shooting down... For those that don't hike up the hill, you will only have the intermediate distance target to fire at. 600-ish yards.
Sometime after mid-day, we'll break down camp and head back to my house. Matt flies out at 11pm Sunday night. I encourage all others that don't have tickets yet - fly out on Monday, 22 October 2018...
