Thread hi-jack. If anyone from GTA - Barrie area looking to share a ride, let me know, my shooting partner bailed on me. Hate driving on my own - so company would appreciated. To be clear - I am not looking for a ride - looking for a passenger. I have a large SUV - so lots of room for second kit. PM me if there are any takers.
What time are you leaving and I live in Milton fyi. Where are you staying?
Even the worst day at the range is still ten times better than your best day at work
Staying at Quality Inn. Leaving Friday PM (flexible) was thinking early afternoon 2 or 3. I am on my own schedule so... (leaving from Richmond Hill)
Roger, I'm staying more in Pembroke so I think it'll be too much running around for ya while we're there. Thanks for the offer though

Only a few more sleeps. So excited to be seeing our crew once again. Been a couple of months and I’m stoked to see all of you.
Some points to consider.....
As you pack your rig, do this....dig out the Allen keys you need to tighten your rings and ring bases. Do it now. Snug up all your screws before you pack your rig into your travelling case/hard case/Pelican/ Nanuk/ Plano/ NCStar etc.
I did mention that you should be arriving at Garrison Petawawa Bravo Range with a 100m zero, but sometimes that’s not always possible.
So, tighten things up right now. You will be surprised at the loose rings / bases that turn up on the Saturday and then evolve into sloppy base screw position retention by Sunday afternoon. I see this all the time. Take a few moments... tighten everything down... AGAIN!!
Then when you uncase your rig at 100m on Bravo, you will be confident. Besides, we are ALL gonna re-zero at 100m so It’s All Good!
A few minutes of confidence building goes a long way.....
I would rather you discover/make/encounter these mistakes with me around you... versus a catastrophic scope failure at the Nationals or Meaford Long Range Steel Challenge on the firing line!!
See you guys in a couple of days....
Cheers, Barney
Quesada Burrito soon!!
Harrpara is here at the cottage and we were shopping at the CANEX just now!

Home after a six hour and change drive. Algonquin Park traffic was busier than usual and I’ve never experienced a back up or delay of any sort until tonight. Glad it’s all over. I hope everyone got home safely despite the cottage traffic.
Will post up the results from today’s match by tomorrow afternoon.
Right now I just need to unwind and give all sorts of thanks to the entire community for a super weekend. Life cannot get any better. Well.... maybe except for a CPC Majority. Hahahaha
Ttyl tomorrow. Goodnight all!
Thanks for a great day of instruction and and match Barney, it's much appreciated! Will definitely be back again!
