I plan on being there for with the regular crew. This is the only time we get to shoot scopes so I'm bringing the M1C and see how it shoots I shoot with it. Keatons shooting the 1903A4 and Lawson shooting his Mauser with a new to him 1930s vintage scope. Bring the cold weather gear.

I'll be bringing an AR and a 91 hope one works in the snow.

Hoping somebody brings that Garand I've been looking to try out.

I always seem to bring an extra Garand or three. Your welcome to try one out, once you hear that ping nothing else will do. Who else is coming?

I'll be there.
Stimey may be, too.

Wildman,
About how many rounds will the course of fire be?
Title: Re: KWSC next Saturday Jan 9th.
Post by: wildman on January 07, 2010, 07:18:33 AM
There are 36 targets. Two rounds max/target. So the answer is 36 to 72 plus zero rounds.  I sure wouldn't cut it that close. Better to take some home rather than run short.

Hey guys,

Really looking forward to this event.  It is going to be cold though. Maybe the ground will be frozen so we can do counter attack!  To the questions about ammo.  I bring a 30 cal can filled with 30-06 and that ALWAYS get me through the day. I average about 120-150 rounds max depending on counter attack and how many rounds I shoot at the gongs  :---  .   

See you there.

Guess I should have brought the AR.  The 91 expired :-[.  At least Jonny Reb figured out what was wrong with it.  Thanks JR.  Guess I'll have a new reciever next trip out with the 91.

Outstanding shoot ran by WIldman (Thanks Big Time) great test of your skills, kit and how to use both. Well worth dealing with the cold weather.

Wildman, for all the work you and others do to get the shoot ready for myself and others, I THANK YOU ALL. Always fun no matter what the weather.

Saturday we had perfect weather for the KWSC the temperature didn't get out of the 30's. Jason M must really like the cold 'cause he had the high score. An almost perfect round. Jason shot a 176 out of 176. Overall 8 out of 15 shooters shot qualifying scores of at least 140 out of 176. There maybe one more qualified but I think he took off with his score sheet.

I swear sometime before I am done ramrodding these field shoots I am going to run one where there are no pop up failures. We have learned to take'em in stride and just keep going.

Thanks fellows for coming I know it takes a lot effort on your part to do but without you there wouldn't be any fields shoots. We had several new faces and hopeful they will be motivated enough to come again. I am already looking forward to the next shoot in February, the Iceman on the 20th. The shoot on the 20th will include the Morgan's Crew COF.

Wow, Jason you've been holding back on us, Great shooting. I was very happy to see such a large turn out on such a cold day. Lots of great shooting rifles at the range that day and plenty of good shooters. I need to work on shooting with that offset scope on the M1C I'll be better prepared next year. Here's a few pictures of the shoot, the first one is Our man Jason taking his turn shooting with his spotter and scorer.You could really see the wake of the bullet easily in the dense cold air.  The second is of some of the rifles on line waiting their turn to shoot.
