MDS Group Bang Steel Long Range Trip

[redsandman6]

I am for CVT at that price. only weekends in the spring would be bad for me are april 2-3 and may 7-8. I don't think the wife will like me going to a class on mothers day weekend. easter is early this year so we don't have to worry about that.

I will check with Ed, with Dan it is around 150 - 200 rounds. Recommend you show up with 200 rounds.

 

[DZ]

I'd bring 150-200 rounds for a typical E Shell class.

 

[AssMan]

In for either but prefer CVT. However, I have limited experience shooting at distance. What are the prerequisites, if any?

 

[E.Shell]

Howdy guys, I wanted to clarify a couple things:

1) Dan is asking a fair price for his services and under normal circumstances, the costs here would be similar. I am doing this particular event for my cost, due to a long history with MDS and many of the members here, and based on a headcount of 8. If less turn out, the cost will have to go up some - Pinecone has the math for when you guys finalize your roster.

2) Round count will probably be 150 or so. When we do one on one classes, round counts increase and we can exceed 200. This proposed class is larger than we would normally set up and so each shooter will have a little less actual trigger time.

3) There are no prerequisites, just a rifle/ammo/scope combo that is at least theoretically capable of consistent precision of 1 moa or better, and capable of shooting to 1k or further.

Probably nothing more than a positive attitude, willingness to learn and behave safely. I know Ed has a couple loaners and it appears that Dan does as well

OK, here is the pricing at this time:

Dan Newberry at BangSteel - $340 per person for 2 days. Minimum 4 students

Ed Shell at CVT - A HECK of a deal at $200 per person for 2 days, minimum 6 students. If less the price will go up slightly.

Wow, I'm interested!

 

[protegeV]

Still in, though I really have nothing to shoot log distances at the moment

 

[Wayne1one]

I just need a future date, the earlier I know the dates or perspective dates the better.

 

[INMY01TA]

I'm supposed to hit CVT in the spring with Yoshi but am down for this as well. I've met Ed before and would like to shoot with him.

 

[SgtKope]

Gents,

I consider Ed a good friend and mentor. I have shot with him on several occasions and I probably enjoy the conversation as much as the shooting. If you are even slightly considering this you should sign up. You will not meet a nicer guy on this planet than Ed.

 

[shocka04]

I'm interested. Should be able to do most dates.

Thanks.

I have an FNAR heavy that is an MOA (or better) shooter (out to 200 yards at least), but I don't think 1k is in the cards for a .308 out of a 16" barrel.

I've been planning on picking up a decent bolt gun anyway, so here's my excuse

I'm interested, but it's date dependent.

I heard that. I'll use any excuse for a new gun

 

[Ampm24-7]

I'm still interested. Got a Ruger Pecision Rifle in 6.5 cm ready to go. Been checking on this project's status. liking Ed's program. Room for another?

 

[Pinecone]

As was mentioned, May 8 is OUT. Unless your wife is a shooter and comes along.

So either April 30/May 1 or May 14/15.

 

[Broncolou]

I'm out for those 2 dates. If you have an odd # and need 1 I might be able to swing the end of may but I'm helping coach a kids pistol team and it the last sun each month.

May 14/15 works better for me, I work in finance and the end of the month won't work for me.
