" If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand which feeds you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countryman " Samuel Adams, 1772

I'll be there with my 550 Gibbs and likely the 450 Dakota; along with my Sharps 38-90.

Canuck

I am still hoping to make it down. Can't bring anything to shoot (need way more time to arrange for a BATF Form 6 to legally bring a gun into the US), but will be happy to meet some AR folks, hang out and shoot the breeze.

Canuck32 was thinking about coming down too.

Cheers,
Canuck

Ol Bull

Canuck, if you guys drive all the way down here i'm sure we can find something

for you to shoot!

Canuck,
pencil in an extra day and meet me up at Bitterroot's shop Friday night/Saturday morning for the nickel tour and a chance to be the first one injured by the 700AHR.

Don't know yet. Will have to fly up from Fla to my daughter's place in Helena and can only bring a .375. That ain't exactly a big bore...

Hope you are not having a drouth, or burn bans on open flames, if Rich is bringing his 550 you better have fire extinguishers ready! Don't want any grass fires or such!

If the timing works out I might be able to fly over to Canucks and go with him. I don't mind being a spectator due to form 6. But I will have my video camera. I'll keep in touch with Canuck.
Take good care

I just read Canuck's post on the other forum so I guess that I won't be able to make it either. It sounds like he is over worked again. I hope you guys have a great time at the shoot.
