Mtn Top Shooting Range match cancelled

The April 8th scheduled .22 LR Match at Mtn Top Shooting Range has been cancelled due to heavy rain predicted Friday and Saturday. The next match date will be May 20th. There will be no rescheduling for this match due to other range activities scheduled thru the year.
 
The remaining schedule is as follows:

May 20
June 4. Sunday
July 29
August 12
September 24. Sunday
October 21

Saturday times will start at 9am and Sunday times will be 1 or 2 o'clock Central Time.
 
I reckon the currently pouring rain and 100% forecast for all day today won't even let me practice. I do have plenty of 50 yard targets now, due to a brain fart ;)

Good luck Bill, let me know how it turns out! I'll likely wait for the rain to hopefully subside later this evening and shoot a couple of practice cards.
1220 higher on the BR50 target and 570 higher on the ARA compared to last month's wind debacle. Steady rain all day but it didn't affect the scores any.

Its all good being wet, I shoot at a friends place in LaBelle that rubber boots and a knarly tired side by side are required to check the targets half of the year.

I took my old tired Nissan 4x4 out there to a 500 yard balloon shoot once and was delegated range rider. That was fun! Up and down over the ridges, 18 degrees and ice, and then came the thaw! Woot! :D
 
I hear all good talk about different ranges and hear some pretty col stuff. Next time I go to Tennessee I want to shoot at the Dasher dome. Last time I went through Mc Minnville going to shoot in Parsons I got caught in the rain and he to get my duffle out of the back of the truck cause I had pick up a guy broke down and he needed to ref a soccer game at the next exit. Road was being widened and I eased off between the cones and the drop was over a foot, i thought I was going to turn the truck over. Greg Tannell told of guys in Northern Alabama that shoot from one ridge to the next at jugs full of water. I think he said the loser from last shoot has to get up early and drive over and set up jugs.

The guys I know out that way are shooting out to and over a mile across those ridges. Not sure they're shooting jugs tho. ;)
 
I talked to Greg years ago, they may have tired of collecting jugs, and filling them with water. It was a short-lived joy when we used to do it out off of Browns farm road.
