Greetings from Winnemucca
Hello all,
There is a big bike rally here on Memorial weekend they call Runamucca! Well this weekend is definately Gunamucca! It was hot, but the wind held off till later than usual but it did show. The range is more than adequate and our host/landowner joined us for quite a bit of the day and was very enthusiastic about the goings on. It is refreshing to see a person that eager to help out strangers period, much less strangers with guns. He had fun shooting my 7-30 waters and I am sure other's guns as well.
NV Walt brought out his golfball mortor complete with carriage and elevation adjustment. A cute piece of work and fun to touch off. First such device since Buckshot brought his to the original NCBS at Topaz back in 2000. It seems that each year we spend more time BSing and less time shooting. But shoot we did. All manner of firearms and a huge variety of targets at 25, 50, 100 and 200 yards. This range has potential of distances of 600 yards plus if laid out right. It would be awesome to see that happen.
To those who for whatever reason couldn't make it you were sorely missed. All exc ept Buckshot. With NVWalt and Jaremy here for competition I don't any the extra distraction of another sharpshooter to watch out for.
Getting ready for a meal of BBQ baby back ribs prepared by KarenB...the hostess with the mostest. This woman really knows how to feed and please a crowd. The smells coming from the kitchen are quite distracting.
Wish you all were here.
