98Z5V Posted March 24 Report Share Posted March 24 @JBMatt, fire up the notes on the new badass bolt gun!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBMatt Posted March 24 Report Share Posted March 24 Whew! What a great shoot! Lots of firsts. We had some new people come join us and we added some new names to the Mile Club! And we have the smallest caliber making hits at a mile as well! As always, Kelly killed it with the food. @98Z5V Was nice to see that Win Mag back in action and pounding steel at a mile. Joy's new 300 Norma Mag made its debut fresh off the lathe. Man, that thing is impressive! We ran 100 rounds through it for fire forming and barrel break in. I picked up the cheapest powder that was in stock at my local reloading shop that was listed in the book, used my old 220 ELD-X's and some God only knows how old CCI 250 primers, loaded it to book spec under max load and sent it. That thing was hammering the mile all weekend! The weather was warm and the mirage was heavier than we've seen in a while. But I'd have to say a good time was had by all. @Cunuckgaucho No Roadrunner sightings to report. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

98Z5V Posted March 24 Report Share Posted March 24 I'll have some updates in here tomorrow, with pics, of the sweet new 14.5" carbine. GunPusher John sent me a text on Saturday, while we were out there, that the M4E1 PRO lowers finally showed up. Week later than I needed, but that's okay - that 14.5" carbine got built on a BA lower, and shot/dialed in anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys laugh now but if those evil mini raptors evolve and organize, y'all be wish I was there because as been proven countless times I am a the ultimate road runner repellent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went 5 for 10 with my 22 DPC. Basically a 22 ARC. 90 gr SMK going 2770 got it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt.Cross Posted March 24 Author Report Share Posted March 24 Beautiful weather the whole weekend, largest Spring Shoot on record in terms of attendance, great new people all around, some new records set by some new Canadian marksman, a great weekend by anyone's measure! ... and... Got on the mile in two with Tom's rifle, my personal best to date! Had a great time and can't wait for the Fall Shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBMatt Posted March 24 Report Share Posted March 24 (edited) The view of camp from the mile. This Guy! Kenny and Shawn brought their grandson Gavin for the weekend. And Shawn's Dad, Jim was there, too. Joy hit the mile on her 3rd shot with her new 300 Norma Magnum. Then backed it up with 2 for 4 when the shot marker fell off. Drove out to fix it and noticed only one hit? Upon closer inspection, she had 2 hits less than an inch from each other. We'll take it! Sunset from the 609 609 night shooting 5 for 10 with the 22 DPC. Easy to tell the difference when compared to all the 30 cal impacts. Kelly got on the mile with his 6.5 CM AR-10! He's been trying for a couple years! Success! Dad taking his turn at the mile. 2 for 5. I had to try the 1 MOA target at a mile. Got it in 3. Edited March 24 by JBMatt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
