It's 7:30 now and people are arriving still and a few are leaving. There is a long waiting list already.

Seems as Sunday is the day everyone prefers to go to the range as SwissK31 went yesterday and he was first on the wait list at 8:30AM.

The waiting list is about 25 strong now. It is a beautiful day except it is quite windy. We had a little rain about 6:30 but the skies are clear. I'll probably stay here until 1:00 or so.

I actually got a bench 20 minutes after the range opened. I guess someone just zeroed the rifle and left. By the second relay I up and shooting yesterday.

Saturdays are much better to deal with than Sundays.

There were so many people there today that the RO was telling me that the waiting list was still getting bigger around 12pm as it usually is getting smaller by that time. People were double parking and blocking others. I left about 1pm.

No waiting list on the pistol side.

Rifle side was packed!  I have rarely seen that many people there.  One RO told that 150 people had signed the log book by noon.

Don't know about anyone else but I accomplished a lot today. I was able to finally work up my target loads for 100 yards with 3 different bullets (Sierra 63gr BlitzKing, Sierra 69gr MatchKing and Berger 64gr Target/Varmint) with two different powders. It has taken a lot of loading and shooting just to come up with those 3 bullets. When I could not come up with a continuous supply of one powder I had to come up with loadings for two different powders. So I did a lot of shooting and and had a great time.
