I'm looking forward to this! I had a blast last year. Does the club still have any Greek 30-06 left over, or is it all gone? I'm thinking of bringing a Garand this year instead of an AR.

[Rip Van Winkle]

Doc,

I don't think we've ever had any of the Greek HXP, our M2 ball ammo is LC69 or 72 from what I remember.

[Doc Harvey]

ahh...sorry...I thought the last time I was there you guys had some Greek milsurp stuff for sale. Question remains, though...do you think you'll have ammo for sale at the shoot this year? I might have enough on hand, but I don't want to run out. Never know...the zombies still might come...

Edit : Guess it helps to read the directions... "At this time we have 11 issues of 30.06 (60 rounds) for $30.00 each." Guess that answers my question. Looking forward to this!

I would like to attend, what is the best way to make sure I will be one of the 24?
Do I call or just mail off the application form on Monday?

Thanks

[Rip Van Winkle]

Still have plenty of spots available, just send it in on Monday.

[Thunder71]

Mine's on the way - looking forward to it. Will be doing an Appleseed in April so that will hopefully help a little.

Mine for 2 x entries went out last week - myself and the fetching YuppieMrs. Looking forward to it.

[Sprouticus]

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how late in the day this event will go till.

The Mrs. just informed me that we have a grad party to attend that day as well.
I am hoping that I can squeeze both events in on the same day.

Thanks

I seem to recall we wrapped up by 5 PM, I believe the official end time was "when we're done."

[Rip Van Winkle]

It's going to depend on how big of group we have. I would count on about 5pm but if you need to leave early we might be able to work around it.

[JohnGageMN]

Are there still any openings left?

[Rip Van Winkle]

Yes, we still have openings.

[Rip Van Winkle]

After the initial flurry of interest we still have a few spots available.

Only a little over a month away.

Great event again Mark, thanks for taking the time to organize and run things even if the weather wasn't entirely cooperative.
