Good shooting boys. Bob you want to sell that rifle of yours?
3rd match for you and you are doing VERY well against some Wiley veterans.

The original plan was to come back home after 2 days of shooting so my daughter could be ready for the first day of school on Tues morning. By the time the girls returned to the range on Sunday afternoon it was too late to buy a plane ticket over the internet for my daughter and to big a deal to run to the Seattle airport to see if something was available at a decent price.

Moral of the story = I will never go to a shoot an not be prepared to stay till the bitter end. I was second in the grand agg after 2 days.

Many thanks to DanO and Jefferson for all the help and tips!!!!! And to Rick P for tons of tips last shoot!!

I'm going back in 2013 to get my mug!!!!!

I'd love to switch guns for a practice day and compare notes...
