    Hell yeah man, nice meeting you too! It was awesome and a blast. The Ferris wheel was my favorite.
    What prize did you get?
    I left with a 1/2 off a rebarrel, now to start shopping for what I want to go with...

      I got the same thing. I just have to decide on a caliber now. I was bummed, had I not gone for 4 in tge kyl I would have been in 5th. After that stage I didn't do well and before then only had one miss.

        I wish I would have seen this in time. Any idea when the next one is?

          Everyone got cocky in the KYL. There were only 3 people that didn't zero that stage. I missed the first damn target in KYL cuz I forgot to adjust my scope...missed the 150 and 200 yard prairie dogs, but hit the 250 and 300 yard.
          Missed all but one on the 5-dot drill.
          Pulled a couple shots just right of the plate on the Ferris wheel.

          But I had fun the whole damn time!

          Probie, no official date for the next one, but they said they are definitely doing it again and talking late September maybe.

            Judd told me that I was about as close as one could get without hitting. The prarie dogs screwed me up since I tried to hold instead of dial which I never do.

            I had a blast with the ferris wheel. It sucked on my first time that it broke though cause I think it was about to go over and my second go didn't work well.

            Do you know if anyone found a black jacket? I left mine out there and I'm pretty sure it was at the barn. Jadon was supposed to look for me today.

            When I left there was discussion over one in September and also a long range version in the mix as well. If so I will be attending both.

                I remember seeing a black jacket before I left but there were still a few people there so thought it was one of theirs.

                I would PM Chad or Jason to see if they picked it up.
                I ran off and forgot my shooting bags...

                  I have it narrowed down to 280AI, 7mm-300wm, 7mm SAUM, 6.5×47 Lapua and 6.5 Creedmoor.

                        6.5x47 Lapua would be effin' sweet, too.

                          It just got weeded out being that dies cost $260 alone plus I'll need another $40-$60 for neck bushings. I'm thinking I might be going 6mm TCU since I already have access to a reamer and formed brass.

                            What? RCBS makes them. They're just as cheap as the other dies from RCBS. They also have a $10 rebate going.

                              I like the redding bushing dies a lot better. They seem to be a bit higher quality.

                                I'm tossing around 6.5 Grendel, 6.5x47 Lapua, and 6.5 Creedmoor....

                                Pretty sure I want it to be 6.5mm, but also thought about doing a 6mm. Just not sure I can get the power I want from the 6mm...
