What's the problem...  Beck & Rush on the way out, Dr. Savage on the way back.  If you're lucky you can avoid Hannity... That would be RIGHT way to do it.

Radio?

I'd thought you'd be quizzing each other on Inches Minutes and Clicks the whole ride up and back.   $$-0

Besides I'm from Jersey. :))

In Syracuse I think there are more Sox fans than Yankee fans.

Thank God.

I think the IMC drills would get tiring before they cross the Hudson.... I can hear it now:

Is that the Boston Revere sights or the Philly Franklins?

Well, it's a trick question:

First, a Brown Bess doesn't have sights,

Second, 11" at 980 yards is a little over 1 MOA high... I'm calling that good enough.

Third, if you load enough powder into a Bess to shoot 980 yards, you probably don't have to worry about IMC any more.

A.D.O.M. - I know you asked someplace in hear what material to use...

If you look in "Instructor Corps" section Fred has issued guideposts for the second and third strike.  I expect he'll churn out the first strike soon.

This might be the overview for this meeting. 

I guess we might be a bit long winded on our history compared to some - someone noted each strike should be 20 minutes. 

I generally do the second strike in an hour, and I had to work hard to cut it down to that. ::)

I've called New Way Lunch to ask about their hours, etc.  They're usually open 'till 11 PM or later (much later on weekends), they do have a take out menu, and they do not deliver.  We'll have to see about picking up a menu on the way past Friday...

Me and Josey are looking for a place to crash.  Wife says another hotel before I turn in all this paper work and I might as well stay there and not come home.

Just Friday night.
