Thinking about going out to Barstow on Halloween. Leave Saturday morning - come home Sun afternoon in time for Halloween night.
Come out for the day or stay overnight if you wish.


Plans -
Shoot shit
BBQ
Shoot shit
Drink beer
Shoot more shit
Pass out on Carne Asada and Beer
Try to call in some Yotes sunday morning

Does shoot shit mean:

1. Shooting the shit ala shooting the breeze
2. Shooting inanimate targets
3. Shooting varmints
4. Shooting edible shit

All the above... In past years we could shoot a crap load of rabbits but these last two or so have been realy slow. Hopefully all the rain we had this past year has helped revive the population some. There is a canyon we perch up on that has an open shooting lane straight out to 1500+ yards at this spot as well.

Sweet.. its right off the 40 about 4 miles after the 15.

Mark... lets get some rabbits man!! I might even let you share my sleeping bag instead of Connor

I'm sure Kurtis will have that one covered if he comes

Bring lots of ammo!!

We will work out the food situation when time gets closer

Wonder if we could borrow some club steel, or if anyone who's coming has any.

Do you take Pendleton Road to Camp Rock Rd?

Why might you ask?

I have three pieces of steel you can borrow, a 6 in popper,
and the two IPSC targets we used at the 5 and 6 hundred yard line during the night match.
they have stands.

Curiousity, very few roads lead out to the wilderness from that close to that intersection.

The good thing about it is that's about the closest place to shoot rifles in open desert. Its right on the border of the shotgun zone. We used to see so many rabbits out there it was unreal.

I'll try to be out there for Saturday. Puppy sitting for my girlfriend while she's away so I have to figure that situation out first.

Right on thank you.

Connor - Is this something you might be able to pick up or do we need to make other arrangements?

Anyone else? Kurtis? Brandon?

I know the old farts will be home playing with the kids so i'm not even gonna ask there...

I wish man, unfortunately I already made plans. If you do it again let me know.

You guys better do this again...... after sports season.....

buffybuster wrote:You guys better do this again...... after sports season.....

The only reason were doing this instead of Liggett is so that it doesn't take up the whole weekend. Next time i have available time outside of the club to shoot shit and drink beer it will be at Liggett.

If everyones to busy to do a Liggett trip at a later date then i'm game for a simple overnighter like this again.

I will be home playing with the kids mom. 8-)

Sounds like someone got their Viagra refilled...

If we're shooting critters, that means copper bullets only?

I haven't worked up a hunting load yet for my .308

I go by Brads all the time. I'll be out in his parts saturday morning before i head out towards barstow. I'm sure we can figure something out.

There is no restriction on bullet type since it not a condor zone.

Do you have a 22 you can bring? If so, it gonna be your best bet. We used to us 1903 with 30-06 for rabbits but there never seemed to be much left of them afterwards.

Don't have a 22...yet but I'll bring my 223. Might bring the Mosin Nagant as well for shits n giggles.

dreka wrote:Don't have a 22...yet but I'll bring my 223. Might bring the Mosin Nagant as well for shits n giggles.

We usually bring a ton of guns too. Pick up a brink of bulk pack .22lr cause we will have some for you to shoot. We usually bring a couple 22's the ar's and our rifles.

Have any of you ever seen the carnage of a 444marlin hitting a Jack Rabbit?

bring as many guns as you can. if you don't have a 22 then buy a couple bricks anyway. I've got a 22 pistol, 22 conversion for the ARs, and some other semi auto plinkers. We usually make a little night scenario range using some plates around a camp site. Its a ton of fun to be sitting in your chair at the camp fire shooting at plates on the other side of the fire down range.

One of our other priorities is to try and get a rabbit or two before night time. Chukar is also in season!! In the past we've run into Chukar up in the cliffs about 1in5 times we go. The common way to hunt them is to send a trained dog up top and flush them toward you. Our way involves the "one shot one kill" method and then sending a Pit Bull after them ;) he pulls wounded rabbits hiding in the bushes out for us. One time it was screaming in his mouth as we chased him around trying to get it from him LMAO!! It would be awesome to throw a Chukar and a Rabbit on the BBQ along with our steaks 8-)

We also need to pick up a few boxes of clays. In the past we have had a good time peppering the cliffs with them and walking back to the other side of the canyon to shoot at them with the bolt guns.

For those of you not familiar with Chukar-
Its almost the size of a chicken and they taste delicious I think they call them Chukar because those bastard sound like they are laughing at you. They are smart birds..they are usually laughing because we are to dumb to get them half the time lol. Nothing a matchking wont handle

Looks like a good time... I will be in Mammoth for the weekend.

Do you guys hit the slopes or are you just going for vacation time?

Just going to hang out...

Won't be able to be there for Saturday. It's my cousin's wedding but I'll be there by 5am Sunday. I'll bring some coffee for you boys if you're interested. I'll probably get the big box of coffee from Starbucks or Coffee Bean. If a can get a head count, I'll know how many of those to bring.

We probably wont stay later then 1-2pm on sunday but it would still be great if you come out! So far there's at least 4 of us maybe 5 not including you.

I wish I could be there for Saturday but can't weasel my way out of this one. Still planning on having some fun with you guys on Sunday. Might hang out a bit longer out there as I don't have any plans for Halloween.

Is there anything else you'd like me to bring up on Sunday? Let me know.

Guns & ammo should just about cover it

Maybe a stripper that accepts GPS coordinates instead of a normal address would be nice

Yep

How far do we go on Camp Rock Rd?

dreka wrote:How far do we go on Camp Rock Rd?

Call me when you get on Camp Rock (951)236-6579

Its probably 5-6miles from where the dirt starts. You can fly down that road as its graded so it won't take long.

How many people are going so we know how much stuff to bring?
