    I'm signed up, had a blast at this event last year. Just ordered up some more 77gr SMK BTHP ammo for the match.

    I will make sure my bag is packed lighter than last year. I'll still bring all the AR tools and such but they'll stay in the car instead of my lugging them all over the range.

    I did real good on the 600-300 yard prone portions last year, not so much on the standing. Been practicing standing shooting at the range with my 22, hopefully it'll translate.

    Myself and a friend signed up, I’m getting pretty excited about it and I should probably zero my rifle. I shot the one in Byers with a red dot I thought was zeroed and I had a rough time until about the 300y line.

    I'll probably pm a few folks about building a pack up & or what to not include above & beyond the list provided. Less anyone wants to volunteer the additional information here for everyone to see.

    This will be my first match with this flavor & style unless it's something not dissimilar to the prs follies match that I shot last December @ Cheyenne Mountain.
