Made my last pre-Boomershoot trip to the range this morning. Seems during my previous testing with the .300 Win Mag I managed to shoot my scope loose. Red Loctite applied, torqued to spec, and I'm now dialed in at 500 meters. Took the target AR and ran a magazine through it at 400 meters. It's ready to go. Still need to load some .260 Remington for the Power Tool™. I'll have to sight that in on Saturday. I think I'm going to use it on the 385 yard berm only, though. Last time I scared a lot of targets with the pistol at 640 yards, but I think I only hit one.
I have someone sharing Position 26 with me now, so I've got a spotter and so does he. I head out for Orofino on Thursday. I'm planning to stop in Ogden, UT Thursday night, which should put me in Orofino on Friday afternoon. I'm doing Field Fire and High Intensity on Saturday, and then the event itself on Sunday, departing Monday morning for the drive home. Haven't picked a route back yet.
I've got a 5'x7' canopy and some tarp sidewalls to keep the wind and (probably) rain as much at bay as possible, and a half-inch plywood sheet for a ground surface to put my chair and table on. Weather report says cool and probably rainy Saturday, cooler and maybe rainy Sunday. Thankfully the wind is supposed to be 10 mph or less.
The Smallest Minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities. - Ayn Rand
Liberty is an inherently offensive lifestyle. Living in a free society guarantees that each one of us will see our most cherished principles and beliefs questioned and in some cases mocked. That psychic discomfort is the price we pay for basic civic peace. It's worth it. It's a pragmatic principle. Defend everyone else's rights, because if you don't there is no one to defend yours. -- MaxedOutMama
I don't just want gun rights... I want individual liberty, a culture of self-reliance....I want the whole bloody thing. -- Kim du Toit
The most glaring example of the cognitive dissonance on the left is the concept that human beings are inherently good, yet at the same time cannot be trusted with any kind of weapon, unless the magic fairy dust of government authority gets sprinkled upon them.-- Moshe Ben-David
The cult of the left believes that it is engaged in a great apocalyptic battle with corporations and industrialists for the ownership of the unthinking masses. Its acolytes see themselves as the individuals who have been "liberated" to think for themselves. They make choices. You however are just a member of the unthinking masses. You are not really a person, but only respond to the agendas of your corporate overlords. If you eat too much, it's because corporations make you eat. If you kill, it's because corporations encourage you to buy guns. You are not an individual. You are a social problem. -- Sultan Knish
All politics in this country now is just dress rehearsal for civil war. -- Billy Beck
