« on: April 07, 2014, 11:36:47 PM »
Just a reminder that this Saturday is the first VMRM at Ike's for this year. Same time as usual for sight in, 8:00 am. Match starts at 9:00 AM. Information is on the Lincoln Ike's web site if you need any details on the shoot.

I wondered when these would start back up...
It is highly likely the above post may offend you. I'm fine with that.

Houston, we have a problem...Maybe

Rock Your Glock is also scheduled for this Saturday April 12th and they did have the plate rack in front of the far target stands on the 300 yard range.

Anyone happen to know if it was, or will be, moved?

No problem. The vintage match is on the #1(75yd) range. RYG is on the #2,3 & 4 ranges. Only issue is that all ranges will be closed to open shooting. The vintage match will be done by around noon at the latest.

I need to get some ammo loaded.  I loaded a bunch of .223, .308, and 9mm this winter but neglected my old warhorses.

Exact opposite here. My Mausers now have roughly 500 rounds each

There's an NRA across the course match at ENGC the same day. I like the vintage match but would like to do some more across the course shooting. I'm torn.

It is true though, that if you are going to have problems, "having too many matches to shoot" isn't exactly a bad problem...

Range clean up day at the home range. :(  They managed to conflict with all of the RYG's this year as a matter of fact.

In the same boat.  Midrange on Sunday might be the compromise solution.
