My concept for final plans for the Texas Shoot

Hey all, here is what I think could work pretty well for the TX Shoot this coming month on 17 September 2011. If this doesn't work please respond to this email and sound off with what will.
We meet at Noon at Kruez Market (http://www.kreuzmarket.com/index.shtml) in the parking lot. We don't eat there, but use it as a rally point to get together before making a caravan to the range. Don't worry, food is involved, just after the shooting! I figure we can hang around in the parking lot until about 12:20 to make sure everyone coming gets there, then we head off to Lone Star Gun Range (http://www.ctxpta.com/id2.html). No need to set any real timeline for shooting, I figure we can just shoot until we run out of ammo!
Following the shooting, we can rally up and head back to Kruez for some good BBQ, take a group picture, then go our various ways.
How does this sound to everyone?
Thus far I have participants as Bullsi, Big Chief, ADRidge, Snake_284, and myself. Are we missing anyone?
Any input is greatly appreciated, I just more or less modeled this off of what worked last time. I may call the range and ask about a group rate, but they said the last time I talked to them that they usually only do that if you're going to close off an entire range.

Just a thought.

Any updates? Is it still a go? Anyone know if the range is open with the fires raging on?

We may want to consider another date a few more weeks away, just a thought.

So, I'll probably just bring handguns.

I think the highway through Bastrop is still closed, though.

Well, re-post when and where we are supposed to meet this time.

"I vote that we meet around 11-12 in Lockhart, probably in the parking lot of Kruetz BBQ (http://www.kreuzmarket.com/index.shtml) Then head out to the range (everyone gets lunch on their own or brings it). This puts us at starting shooting around 1230 or 1245. I figure we can roam around from rifle to pistol as we please (and depending on group size) and once we're all out of ammo (or tired) we can regroup, close out with the range officer, and head back to Kruetz for some good BBQ (I'm guessing this will be NLT 6 PM, but that all depends). Then we can linger as we wish and just shoot the fat and tell lies with no solid closing time."

I just made my ammo run yesterday, you know, because I "need the brass" and all that...

BC requested the Rossi Ranch hand, and I'm bringing the Saiga 12 (http://forums.gunsandammo.com/showthread.php?846-Transformation-A-Saiga-conversion.-%28yay-for-gun-porn!%29). Any other requests for hardware to bring?

As a side note, I found out yesterday that 100 round boxes of 9mm are $21 at Wally World, and 50 round boxes are $13, my goodness.

He said I have some dry-socket/infection going on. He went in and put some awful smelling tasting crap in there and gave me a prescription for some more antibiotics.
So, I'm bring handguns only, don't want anything up against my right jaw. I will bring .44 mag/.44spl/.45 ACP/.357 mag/9mm/9x18 MAK/.22 lr guns n ammo.
Plus some .223 ammo
How about meeting there at the BBQ joint @ 10-1030 in the morning?

Does 10:30 work for everyone? Shoot, at this rate it may be just us three again until TIMC's homecoming...

Yep, 1030 hours is good with me. I dunno what that dentist did today or squirted into my socket, but I feel better already.
I am packed up now. I'm bringing the following to shoot. Plenty of ammo too.:guns:
Ruger .22 MKII TGT Govt Model
Ruger P-89 9 mm
CZ 82 9X19 MAK caliber
S&W 686 .357 mag
Dan Wesson Pointman 7 .45 ACP
S&W model 624 .44 S&W Spl
S&W 629 Classic, scoped .44 Rem mag:guns:
Plus, extra .223 ammo in case anyone needs any.

I'll be late. Probably 11:30 or so. But I know how to get there, and know what you guys look like.

So do I! We had a great time, and watched real, honest to goodness RAIN clouds build over the 100 yard berm, and left right as the rain started. Any day we have water fall out of the sky is a GREAT day!
I think we will be doing another one of these soon.
-Mikhail Kalashnikov
I had a great time:applause::applause::applause:, even though I couldn't shoot rifles due to my dry-socket. However, I darn sure chomped some sausage at the BBQ barn, albeit chewing was slow.:tooth:

My wife, kids, and I have been doing family/social shooting meets, aimed (pun intended) at families and newbies, around Texas for a couple of years.
