Going to depend on a number of things, but have talked about going down the last of October, taking in the West of the Pecos match at Pecos tx, then trotting on across tx and down to the gulf and on over to MS.

I am planning to be there come hell or highwater.

He$$ yes were shooting across that north canyonBig Grin

Well, we'll shoot at themTongue

That 900 yrd octagon plays hell with everybody, especially if theres a 10-15 mph wind blowing.Sad

15 of us shot at that damn thing one afternoon, & you couldn't get two bullets to land in the same place from a string of tenAngry

Oh that side hill slope raises cainUndecided lots of grumbling going on, even ol' hipshot was seen mutterin to himselfTongue

Rick with the contour of that canyon, and the wind currents thru there, that makes your 1600 about as simple as 200 yd bench restTongue

Rick,

Got a 4' square at 1023 yrds, thats all we can get. I'll take some pics & see if I can post them. The 4' octagon at 900 seems to be the real challenge! It sits on a nasty slopeBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig Grin
