[KLB]

Do we have any meat yet?

Do we have any meat yet?

I will bring hot dogs as I awlays do.
I **THINK** I have burgers but need to check the freezer but our numbers are still low so figured perhaps only dogs this outing.

No bread right now either.

 

[tv1217]

I'm a maybe.


I'll probably just bring

Springfield M1A .308 Win/7.62 NATO(limited ammo)
Ruger SR-1911 .45 ACP(some ammo)
Ruger 22/45 .22 lr(bunch of ammo)

The M1A has a Burris fastfire on it now, I might get a Vortex Viper PST on it by then.

 

[buzzined]

Man I am so happy to see the shoots starting up again, but I had rotator cuff surgery a couple weeks ago and I am not going to ready for this one.

Since I can only make Sundays hopefully I will see you all in May.

 

[mrobnoxious1]

If anybody would care to bring a glock 30 or 36, I would love to shoot them. Looking for my next EDC.

 

[melensdad]

I might be able to make it???

Our flight to Spain was supposed to leave on Wednesday but the whole trip got moved 2 days so we don't fly out until Friday. If I can swing it then I will be in Winamac for this shoot!

 

[subtlesixer03]

Wel Its looks as though ill be showing up. Not sure about the misses yet. Looks like

Ak47 some ammo
Detonics CombatMaster Mk5 limited ammo
marlin m60 ammo
marlin 336 some ammo
keltec plr16 limited ammo
BHP limited ammo
Rock Island 10mm Limited ammo
Weatherby 7mm rem mag limited ammo
And the mosin from hell some ammo

 

[Spudgunr]

I'll try to be there, pending halfway decent weather.

If there, I'll have:
22/45 (some ammo)
AK47 pistol (a little / some ammo) (its barely a pistol, 14" barrel)
45-70 lever gun (some ammo)
6.5 grendel (no spare ammo available)
Mossberg 500 (? If I get any buckshot reloaded before then to try out)

 

[melensdad]

What configuration is your 6.5 Grendel build? Carbine? Middy? Long range heavy barrel? Etc?

 

[Spudgunr]

It is a 19" or so fairly light barrel, but I have it set up mid range. I've gotten 3-4" at 300 off the bipod with my 1-4x scope. Rifle length YHM quad rail, mid length gas system w/ low profile block. I haven't shot it much, was trying before to figure out which bullet I was going to invest in. I think I'll go with the 108 scenar, it jellied the deer I shot with it! I just hesitate to invest the over $300 in 1000 bullets until I am SURE which one I'm going with.

Sounds cool. Nice to find another Grendel fan here in NWI. I've got 2 of them. One a 19" and the other a 24" heavy barrel. I'm getting sub 1/2 MOA at 200 yards with cheap Wolf ammo.

Another NWI INGO member, aclark in Crown Point, is currently building a Grendel.

 

[Spudgunr]

I've only done load testing with bullet combinations, I haven't tried different primers, powders, etc. If I had some place close by I'd probably do a little more (heck, I don't think I've done ANY shooting in 2-3 years). I'm not a great rifle shot, for me sandbags and a 9x scope would probably help me get more accuracy. But, I thought I'd get more USEFULNESS out of a 1-4x, I've been burned hunting before when 4x was too much magnification for a deer that ran by close up.

 

[BlueCollarBullsEye]

I'm planning on making my first outing with you guys. +1
Here's what I will bring..
S&W M&P 15 (limited ammo)
S&W M&P 15-22 (some ammo)

 

[BlueCollarBullsEye]

My list Continued...I somehow posted it incomplete.
S&W M&P 22 (some ammo)
Springfield XD 9 (plenty of ammo)
Remington 870 12 Gauge (some ammo) slugs only?? I dont know range rules
Sig Sauer Mosquito (some ammo)
Single shot 20 gauge (some ammo)

 

[jedi]

List updated with the members that have confirmed.
In addition the MARCH rifle comp is now up.
I think I'll start the tradition of starting the Meet & Shoots with an "appleseed" type of target for the first meet.

Rules updated on the main post.
Also I got the 1st place gift ready to go and show hopefully have the last place gift ready by the weekend.

 

[KLB]

Iron, scopes or both?

Iron, scopes or both?

I forgot about you old timers with your scopes.

x2.5 bonus if you use irons to overall score.
That seems to help even the playing field.
