Dang, I'd like to come, but I am meeting up with some friends in Indy that day. They're coming from Iowa and Wisconsin just to pick up some builds I did for them. Rescheduled 2x already 'cuz I can't get them done right. Better not try to do that again.

Have fun!

Lol well as it stands my 22-250 is the only gun ready to go but I still have to work some loads for it.

My 300wsm needs to be bedded and loads worked

My 6.5 creedmoor needs the cracked boyd stock repaired then pillar bedded and loads worked. ....

So I have my work cut out for me. I would really like to shoot the 6.5 and 300wsm there

Excuses......excuses......
Next I suppose you'll say the weather has kept you from getting things dialed in?

I know, it's really not fair. We didn't have a winter this year. I feel for you guys.
We'll get ours this summer when the woods turn into a huge tinder box from the lack of winter.

If I had the time off I'd fly out just to meet up with some of you characters.

Lol, no worries, the range is free few weekends a month, we can definitely postpone to late April, if that works for everyone.
That will be time to work on a load for the 6.5x55 with a 1.5 oz evo trigger :-)

Guys, pls respond with weekend in April that works.

Well, we did not have much of a winter too, here in west mi we have HALF as much snow as last year. Last Friday was -6F or something crazy and my neighbor was jogging her tights :applause:.

I need that darn range for ladder test, darn it.
I can only do 325 in my yard and that doesn't show much deviation, not nearly enough to ID harmonics
