ARE YOU INTERESTED IN GETTING STARTED INTO LR COMP SHOOTING?

[bozo699]

Tom,
I hope your right about the snow, we usually motel it but the boy's wanted to camp so we geared up to camp at the range but if it is still snowing forget it!! I hope to see you there as I always have fun and learn something from you and Leo, You are all doing a great job there, I had eye surgery last Friday but fortunately it was my left eye ;D Seeya on the line.
Wayne.

Mark,
Yes Montana at least on the east side of the state is very Majestic and the people are fantastic. I live in S.E.Washington state and the country here is very similar to the Missoula Mt. country. I have not been blessed to be back in your country but my sister say's its wonderful, I personally think God put a little beauty in all that he made

Do they shoot F class at Missoula ? I've been camping out to Glacier the past 2 years, and love the area. I would like to move there if i could find decent employment in Kalispell or Missoula.

Ringostar,
I have only shot br there, but it looks like there setup at the other end of the range for f-class. I don't know about employment, there is a big sawmill in Missoula I don't think Tom spends much time on here but he would be the one to ask, if he doesn't reply give him a pm he is a great guy and the guy to beat if you want any wood at deepcreek

Did LEO ANDERSON change his name to Tom?? ;D Tom is really good but I would go with the intention to beat LEO, then you would probably beat everyone. But, there are a lot of other good shooters there as well. That is just my BIASED opinion.

Kalispell has really taken a big hit in the economy. I believe we are at 14% unemployment at present. It seems like the only people hiring is the local hospital (from what I hear). Kalispell Regional Medical Center is really growing and we have some great docs here.

Ringostar,

Yes, they shoot F-Class in Missoula. The next match is May 30. You can find the schedule of all of the highpower matches in Montana on this website.

Wayne,
I know, I was just kidding. I am partial to Leo because he has tought me everything I know about these guns and long range shooting. He is probably embarrassed that I said that. He is just a great guy very willing to give of his knowledge.

I first met him at JOHN KING'S place KING MACHINE in Kila Montana when John excepted the job for my first build. When I went out to meet John, Leo was there. When I finally left that day, my head was buzzing with a copious amount of LR BR shooting. I had a shopping list of things to buy. That's always the fun part. Hopefully I will be able to put 10 rounds downrange as fast (approx. 30 asec.) as Tom or Leo and come away with a 4 inch group.

Barry,
I sure hope you shoot that well also I am going down to the loading room right now to finish loading up the big 6*284, it might be windy and it may give me the edge otherwise its tough to beat the dashers. I got my sons 6brx ammo loaded last night, then we will load up and head to Granville Id, and pick up my friend Paul and head for Missoula. Here in S.E. Washington St there calling for High winds (tornado strength ) and huge hail and lighting I hope the ranch is still here when I get back and I hope we don't get the wind in Montana. I will tell Leo and Tom I speak with you on here, take care Barry and wish us luck, will tell you how I did when we get back.
Wayne.

Thanks Wayne. I'll be looking to see how everyone did.

Barry,
It was brutal at Deepcreek, I clocked winds as high as 38 mph I am tired but I will be back tomorrow, Oh by the way I told Leo and Tom you said hello, howdy right back

So, the old saying is true, "what goes around comes around". AND, bites you in the BUTT!! ;D

On the weather topic; we had wind damage out here in our neighborhood. Also had damage up on 206 where a friend lives. He lost 3 trees but no damage to structures. His neighbor lost 20 trees and had slight garage damage. The ironic thing was, a house up the street from him burned down a month ago. The storm took out several of their trees and took down the remaining walls that were standing.

I'll be in town this week and will pick up tickets from Leo for the raffle.
