    Weather depending,....maybe. Don't care which day y'all choose but if the first few days of Sept are like August weather I'm a firm 'no'. If we get lucky and the first few days of Sept are autumn-like, I'm a 'yes',.....if I remember.

    I will try to be there, I'll be the guy in the green shooting coat with a match rifle....tell me about the range?

    Anyone wanna get a 50/50 prone match organized? Shot on MR paper targets, 20 shots for record, no sighters 50% to the high score, 50% back to the INGO site.....any one up for it?

    Self-controlled
    25y rimfire & pistol bay
    50y, 100y, 200y bays - covered concrete, all with fixed wooden shooting benches, though there is some room between on the concrete.
    The 200y bay is small, one station. It might be possible to get 4 shooters prone.
    50y & 100y have 5 & 4 stations respectively.

    I'd be interested in an impromptu match. I'm not sure there's a lot of rifle enthusiasts in the group, and no highpower shooters that I'm aware of. Maybe donate that half to the plywood backer fund.

    A picture is worth a thousand words. All distances look like this from another thread. Just don't let the RO see you with
    a holstered gun.

    The longer the distance the better, but I'll shoot a "Hoosier Hundred " .... not many high power rifle guys and the few that are here, seem to think hitting paper plates at 50 yards off the bench is marksmanship...... get enough people to shoot an impromptu match and let me know I'll bring the targets.....

    I may have to bring my Pedersoli rolling block with a tang sight. Need to get more 45-70 ammo. Almost brought it last time.
    It hasn't been shot in a looong time. Guy I got it from told me what load it likes but it can't be found anywhere. He moved up
    to a Shiloh Sharps for matches.

    Not a 100% I'll make it (more like 80% sure), but would definitely like to hang out at the 100 and especially the 200 yard ranges. I need more practice on 200+. Brought out a 7mm Rem Mag the day that picture was taken, and was not happy with my grouping at the 200 yds, but I was also rushing to get shots in as it was 5 minutes before the final ceasefire of the day.
