In all seriousness, we use more targets on the Expansion Era stage since there's only one combat stage.  Want you to get your money's worth!

OK … thanks!  I'm just trying to gauge how many cast-bullet .303 rifle cartridges I need to bring along.  I found I have 45 still loaded from the past, but have only located another ten cast bullets already sized and lubed for loading (... and don't think I have any raw cast ones.)  Sounds like I should have enough … perhaps I'll even get time to load up another ten rounds with the bullets I know I've got ready …

I believe I am correct in my understanding that I can use jacketed bullets in any Long Range shooting component of the EE match … ?

I'm leaning toward shooting the Expansion Era with the SMLE rifle and perhaps one of my Canadian-issue .455 Colt New Service revolvers, instead of a 1911 pistol ..

Definitely looking forward to participating again, after a couple of years of "plague-induced" absence ...

Yes, you can use jacketed bullets on the long range precision portion of the match.

Maybe I should start with 50 &20? ::)

Hey, if memory serves, the max loadout is 60 rifle and 20 pistol, so being a pessimistic sort, I always take all of my ammo with me.  I would hate to find extra targets....

What are the lodge lunches going to cost?   Do we need to RSVP for the lunches so they have a head count?

Did you put the order in for chilly weather?   I was sure I noted that request on my entry form.    ;D

I'm just going to be day-tripping, but can get up there Thursday if you need help with setup.

I hope to be done by Thursday, (that's the day the RO's shoot through) but it would be great to see you

Dang, y'all are SOOOO topical.  Before moving to the land of Okies it was.

Hey, ya know why Kansas is the people of the Southwind?

Cause Nebraska Sucks and Oklahoma Blows.

Now that I've moved to with 5 miles of the Stadium in Norman, it's Texas blows..

That oughta take care of everybody but Rattlesnake Jack....

Loaded up and hooked up, underway in the morning. 

I suspect Canadians appreciate warm southern winds however derived . . .
