are the Hoot & Shoot events in Juliff,Tx still going on?

I haven't been around in a while due to work and other circumstances and was wondering if these are still going on?

Jeffe and I have been busy this past year or so. He's been getting his MBA, and I've been involved with our business Charles A. Templeton machine, Inc., Odessa Texas and an addition to our ranch out near Junction.
The last time I tried to put one of these together, there wasn't much response. Perhaps in the Fall we'll try again!
We most certainly enjoyed getting to meet and see friends!

It's too bad interest has waned, those gatherings, including the "bubba" rendezvous at Hogkiller's ranch, were a lot of fun. Met many lasting friends. Time, illness, relocations, etc. have all taken their tolls.

I enjoyed both every chance I got. Just a little far to commute now that I'm in CO. Do miss them.

As usual just my $.02

Boy Rusty, I was hoping to hear you say in Spring! Fall is so far away! If you decide to do one and need help, I am available!

Lee,
I would love to do it this Spring. However getting it going with the club at this late date and the lack of free time for me, I can't.

Most of you know how much I enjoy getting to be with such good people as those who come to the shoots. One of the few times a year I get to hug Jeffe Smith and Mike Jines! It is truly a social event for me, pure and simple!

Now that I have retired and have time on my hands, I think I could be very tempted to attend this type of get-together.

If you really want to I have some of the same bullets with 150gr of H4350. With a 27" drop tube, that is all the powder I could get into the case and still be able to seat the bullet. I guess you can even take the muzzle break off, but I wouldn't advise it.
