Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

You will not be sorry with their cans. They are sweet! I have had mine now for probably about 3-4 months and put 500-600 through it. Very satisfied.
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

I'm getting a Thunder Beast can too as soon as they get some more in at Jensen's. They are just waiting for them to clear.
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Said there was some recent audit and holdup of shit....apparently a bunch just cleared all at once. Might be a TB in there. I'd call.
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

I am going to call first thing in the morning.

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Looks like a large turn out again for the last one of the year . We will be at the gate at 1pm for set up and can start shooting on the site in range at 3pm . See you all tomorrow .

Looks like Mr B is gonna make after all .
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Fun times yesterday. 29 shooters I think... Thanks for putting it on.

The learning curve was steep, it took me about 1/2 of the match to get settled in and comfortable.

Without a doubt I am going to have to try harder to massage my schedule to make more of these.
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

I could not get to this match unfortunately. I shot it last month for the first time. It was a lot of fun. My experience was the same as yours Hoser, it definitely took me a few stages to get going. Looking foward to next match in Feb 2009!
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

C Ward kicked ass by matching the course record with a score of 58 out of 60 targets. Outstanding job!
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Record turn out for the last match of the year . This has been our best year ever for turn out and it was nice seeing all the new shooters this year .

The schedule for next year should be out around Oct. or Nov . and will be posted as soon as we get it .

Look at it a little earlier this year Frank and come shoot more .
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Chuck, awesome shooting, and when my schedule permits you'll see me there. I had a good time...

George was on hardcore track to give you a run, that last stage really hurt him. Near the end we were able to experiment a bit with the winds knowing several of us were out of the hunt, so we got to see what read at the shooter compared to what we saw at the target. One of the interesting shots was the 875, the red engineer tape was barely moving, being in the stand of trees we felt very little on the shooter I shot it for a full value 10MPH and hit left end. So its great training anyway you slice it.

Count me in when I can...

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

He droppped the two targets while thinking bad things about my Tubb...
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

like humping your Tubb in a creek to see if he could break it
wink.gif


Sorry I missed the match - had other plans
smile.gif
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Creek was dry, and Chuck never said a bad word about the Tubb Gun, he just wanted to do an infantry roll with it... how can that be bad, its an essential combat skill.

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

I'll make Mr B cry even more , gravity wrapped a stick around my feet at station 1 and I drop checked my rifle right on the elevation turret with 6 stations left to shoot .
It was one of thoose days that it was hard to miss .
The coolest shot of the day was only at about 3ft and ended with a decapitated 3 ft rattler .
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Sounds like y'all had fun. Since we'll be spending next summer in Creede, as we did most of this one, I'll bring my stick and plan to make some of those next year.

Cheers!

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Had a great time again. The drive back really sucks, but thats what vacation days are for. Congrats Chuck on the win. Will try to get more DFW guys next year. Can someone send me a range card/schematic like the ones on the clip board so I can put my drop on it.
Thanks
Joe
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

I'm new to shooting boltguns, just built a rem 700 over the last couple months. With a lot of help from ninehotel at the range the other day I'm hopeful I can actually hit some targets at this match. Pending the weather I plan to be there!
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Dragging at least 1 new shooter down there. Can't wait for the match!!! rtr will be a welcome addition to the crew. His 243 is quite pleasant to shoot and very accurate.
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

rtr is filling Tim Cannons shoes now that he has left the building.

Have fun guys. See you when I get back.

Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

You flying or going down the alternate career path ?
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Hello,

I'm new to this forum and will be at the SRM Saturday about noon to help set up. I have been lurking here for a while and saw the match specifics at Zak's site.

Jeff
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Cool , there are pretty good directions on the website . We'll get there at 12 and start set up at 12:15 or 12:30 . When we go to set up we lock the gate behind us and if no one is there wait and we'll see You as we pass back by to do the east side and let people in .
 
Re: Monthly Sporting Rifle match RATON NM

Hey Chuck. Gotta fly. The other path has been delayed until October. For now at least. All signed up for Logan though.

Hope you shot well.
