Speaking of which, you better post up that damn COF pretty soon if you expect to be able to run the match.
We still have to finalize the COF, draw targets if needed, make props if needed and print everything out in time.
God shoots a Remington 700, drives a Chevy Truck and carries a Glock 19.
I don't do any of those things.

I'm working on that in another window. It will be mostly done in a few minutes. I don't wanna hear any complaints either
Jeff and I meet at the Ranchside Cafe @ 7:30 a.m. for breakfast before hitting Angeles. No day at Angeles is complete without some chicken fried steak sitting in your stomach.

That's perfect. Let's hit the range. It'll be less crowded.
My thoughts exactly but I will be taking off early (12ish) my buddy's old man throws a superbowl party like you wouldn't believe haven't missed it in 8 years lol

Thank you for your input Jason, it's appreciated. Now you need to get an AICS! haha!
Re the stock: It did look nice. Didn't shoot it, but dry fired a few times, which is all I pretty much wanted to do anyways. Since it's still going through initial production, I'm not sure Mike would want to put some pics up yet.
Wow it was crazy windy even when the line first went hot. My target holder acted like a sail and blew completely sideways right as the first firing was to commence, which made things a little difficult. Saw more than one stand blow over, one had to go grab rocks or something else to try and keep the stands in place.
Anyways got to get my scope almost zeroed (as it's pretty difficult to fine tune with the target blowing back and forth), and got some dope out to 500.
I saw the guy next to me was having a hard time getting his scope zeroed, and decided to lend a hand. I was able to get it bore sighted and somewhat close, and also had Mike lend a hand to help put this guy close. It was a 7mm with what looked like a medium barrel but a light sporter stock, so it kicked pretty decent. We got the scope dialed at 200 while I spotted and helped with corrections and let them have at it. I also let them shoot my new toy with the heavy barrel and muzzle break. They liked it, but I don't think as much as I am. I REALLY like my gun now.
My buddy wasn't haven't so great a day, and was a little bummed at the end. I think he lost count on where his turret dial was, as he went out to 600 and was a full rotation up when he came back to 100, for our 5 shot competition. I still had a good time shooting and know I'm totally hooked now.
Can't wait to load up some more ammo and shoot the movers in a couple weeks at Burbank's range.

I have an AICS 2.0.. but don't think i'll be using the 338 LM for competition unless I first become a wealthy pro bodybuilder. Wouldn't be able to truly appreciate the new product until you've used the original. Plus it helps to know what you like and understand the shortfalls of other systems/features.
Holy sh*t, Mike! That guy's 7mm mag kicked like a HORSE! It was a 7 lb rifle.!! I could only handle shooting 3 rounds out of it (my shoulder was busted) I asked him if he was going to use it hunting and he said, Nope just got it for plinking.
Plinking??? Hhahaha!
I hope he got it sighted.
