1st ever Nebraska Precinct Caper

Pitspitr · January 08, 2014, 06:14:14 PM

After a series of discussions with Hustler and G-Man I'm pleased to be able to announce the 1st ever Nebraska Precinct Caper. This will be a slightly different match than the AZSA World Championships that I've attended at Byres each of the last 2 years because of the terrain of the range it will be held at and the targets we have available for the match. It will be a 4 day, 2 match for the price of one event. This will be held in conjunction with the 2014 Grand Army of the Frontier Grand Muster next June. http://www.cascity.com/forumhall/index.php/topic,49069.0.html The AZSA portion of the weekend will begin Sunday afternoon June 29th and will end by evening on Monday June 30. Entry fees for both matches is $75. Meals are available on site.

Okay! I looked up the Lat and Long and am trying to see how close it actually is to a town with a good hotel to keep my lady happy. Any good suggestions?

Well depending on what you want to spend there's a really nice b&b within a"crow flys" mile. Otherwise there are a couple of nice mom & pop motels about 10 miles north or chain motels within 30 at Burwell, Ord, or Broken Bow

OK, I'm going to chime in here, I know some of you know me, but most likely some don't. I'm Jerry's camp cook and as a heads up I'm planning the menu right now, it won't be set in stone for a while, but I have some ideas and am doing some research, the plan is a menu based on the time period.

What I want right now is to know if anyone going has any food allergies, I understand and will work around anyone like that.

I'll be in touch more as it gets nearer.

Got a daughter with that so I have it pretty well figured out, but thanks.

I'm allergic to not getting enough to eat, but then I've never had a reaction when you're cooking.

Seriously folks Delmonico set a fine table!

Even on the ground among the cow patties.

Any reason you couldn't bring your lovely bride & that cute kid of yours?

Dalton Masterson · January 28, 2014, 04:03:56 PM

Well a lot will depend on summer school for her and that kind of thing. Not sure when it all starts and stops yet. Otherwise, I am betting on at least a day of the 2 being there, assuming they aren't traveling the world or something.

It's a 5 day event. Side matches Friday, GAF Main matches Saturday & Sunday morning. Zoot Main match Sunday afternoon and Monday. Registration fees for one match gets you registered for both. Of course nothing says you have to be there for all but.... I hope you want to be.

Dalton Masterson · January 28, 2014, 07:52:45 PM

Should have been day OR two.

Ammunition requirement for the Zoot match?

When I posted this earlier, I forgot about the new convention center in Broken Bow (about 30 miles)

Figure about 100 of each, but again we're using mostly knockdowns, sooo....

Yesterday a new target arrived.

Pitsptr,

I don't know if I can make due to work, it but being optimistic:

Is there any camping on or near the range site?

The ammo is 100+ for rifle and 100+ for pistol, is there any count for shotgun?

What is the cost of the Zoot match? $35 Unfortunately, I don't have the time or accessories for the GAF match.

Are the capers set?

Are there any side matches?

Thanks,
Border Ruffian AKA Enforcer
