        I’ll be out of town on the 17th but the 24th works for me.

        Side note: does anyone have a good source of 7.7 Jap? I’d like to bring my type 99 out but I am running dangerously low on ammo.
        See you, space cowboy.

          Your best bet would be to reload using Prvi Partizan cases. I don't think Prvi makes actual loaded 7.7 Jap ammo. The Precision Cartridges Inc stuff (which is made using Grafs which is just rebranded Prvi brass anyways) is well-known to be trash ammunition.

            From their Facebook report the 24th may be a safer bet.

            The creek flow washed out some of the ramps, and the thing will need to be regraded to allow lower cars to pass.

              Yeah I think 24th would be better. Gives the range time to repair the road leading up if there indeed was damage from the recent rainstorms, plus it looks like it's gonna rain some more later this week.

                Might be raining again this weekend and according to range office posts they can't fix the road leading up to the range until the creek subsides, and the creek won't subside until the rain dies down.

                Perhaps we might want to think about an alternate venue for just this month in case rain decides to poke in again by this weekend?

                  Looking at the forecast, it looks like it'll finally be clear this Sunday!

                    Just got an email notice that the range is closed for this entire weekend. Here is the email:

                    RANGE CLOSED FRI-SUN FEB 22-24 - CREEK NOT SAFE TO CROSS

                    The range staff has closed the range this weekend to Limited Members Fri-Sun.
                    The creek is not safe to cross at this time.
                    Special equipment will be required to repair access road after rains have slowed down and staff can gain safe access to the range.
                    We are at the mercy of nature.
                    Please share this message with anyone, not on our email lists.

                        Judging from that it looks like we won't be able to hold the shoot this Sunday.

                        I guess at this point might as well wait for March...hopefully the range can get the road sorted out by then.

                            Bummer wish there was a bridge over the creek

                              Safe bet will be March, and cross your fingers they can bulldoze or repair the access path in time.

                              The rocks and ruts look pretty hairy now.
