It looks like Sunday, March 16th is going to be the date. We are seriously looking at having access to a 600 yard range, which is a rarity these days. Possibly a BBQ on Saturday night. Look at the last page of the sticky for current events!

It might just be me and Prof. Loudenboomer who would want to try the 600 yard range, although JReed might be interested as he has to qualify at 500 yards in the Marines. Anyone else interested in the the long range stuff? I just thought it would be neat as it is not something commonly available. -Tutt
