Proclaim it through your hosts that on May the 2nd of 2009, from 10 AM- 2 PM, in the hamlet of Juliff, Texas the not so Royal and Ancient Double Rifle Shooters Society in association with the AccurateReloading.com Big Bore Association will hold their 2nd Annual Shoot and Hoot.
The entry fee, payable when you check in, is $15.00 US. If you just show up to visit and eat lunch that's just fine, the same $15.00 US fee applies. A modest barbecue lunch of brisket with beans and potato salad will be served. Bring your own drinks! No alcohol allowed on the range! Any funds left over after covering the cost of the shoot will be donated to our host facility Bayou Rifles, Inc.
We would like to thank Bayou Rifles for allowing us to use their facility again this year. Please remember that we are guests!
This is a rifle match only. Double rifles, bolt trash, and single shots rifles may be used. Black powder cartridge rifles are welcome. No muzzle loading rifles. Due to facility rules the following calibers can not be used, 50 BMG, any cartridge based on the 50 BMG, 408 Cheytac or 338 Laupua. Bring your own eye and ear protections. Both are required to shoot in the event.
We would ask those attending to please bring extra ammo so others, if they wish, may shoot your rifle under your supervision, to "try it out".
As we did last year, there will be tables set up to display your rifles. This is not a gun show. Tables are for display only.
The event can handle up to 50 shooters.
Course of Fire-
Stage 1- Shooter, standing, will fire 6 rounds from covered firing line at a bull's eye type target at 25 yards, for accuracy and time. In case of a tie there will be a two round shoot off.
Stage 2- Shooter standing, firing from the covered firing line will engage 2, 1 quart sized DWJ (Dangerous Water Jugs) on a wooden stand at 25 yards . .. A speed event. In case of a tie there will be a shoot off.
Awards, if any to be decided at a later date.
We all had a great time last year. We look forward to seeing and having fellowship with old and new friends alike again this year.
This event is all about having a good time!
The range is located on Juliff/Manvel Road between Texas 288 south and FM 521. Coming south on 288 look for the turn off to County Road 57 West. It is the second exit on 288 south of Highway 6.I will post a map.
GPS coordinates of the range are-
N 29 27.2005, W 95 27.002
That is all from Houston at this time!

Due to range rules, we are limited to RIFLES only.

We are gong to be shooting a Bull's Eye type target this year. However you are most welcome to bring some over. I'm sure we can find a place to hang them after the match.

Dont worry... there will be plenty of extended pinky types there with their beautiful double rifles.

RustyFolks, an oversight on my part. Lever action rifles are permitted. Just no muzzle loaders. I have amended my original post on the double rifle forum.

Hard to believe, especially coming from the President of the Southern California Chapter of the Deliverance Re-enactors Club, and perrenial recipient of the organization's "Ned Beatty Squealer" prize.
Perhaps some fizzy water would entice you?

Fizzy water ...really ...??

Actually, I'm the presimadent of SuperBubba Local 666 here in Kommifornia but I usually get a fee to attend speaking engagements ....I'm paid not to speak...

On a serious note - I'd like to get down there this year but it's not looking so good. Perhaps I could send some offering to the Bubba Gods in my stead...

N E 450 No2LEVER ACTIONED RIFLES PERMITTED

What has the DRSS Come to?

I knew we were going astray

when we did not throw Hogkiller out the window, when he showed up with his bolt rifle at a DRSS Function.

At least make the Lever Shooters bring two of them and duck tape them together, Sigorney Weaver style.
