STEEL SAFARI NOTES

We’ve revised the sign-in and registration times on Thursday. NEW THURSDAY SCHEDULE. Basically Check-in/sight-in starts at noon. The briefing is now at 4pm. Moving up the schedule will let us get out of there a little bit earlier so everyone can have dinner and get squared away for the first morning of shooting. (If you already have committed to travel plans that don’t get you there in time, please email me ASAP to make arrangements.)

Ray and I are leaving for Logan on Sunday so communications after that time will be difficult. If you leave me a voicemail or send an email, I should be able to respond in the evenings when we get back to town.

Here is an electronic copy of the briefing packet. BRIEFING PACKET PDF

There will be one stage that will be scored based on time (and normalized to 6 points). This is a change from prior years.

There will be a tech inspection of rifles during sign-in to ensure they comply with the rules. This will include a check of mechanical safeties and a drop test of approx one foot (vertical rifle onto butt pad).

WAIT LIST MOVEMENT

As usual, we’ve had a number of last-minute cancellations for the Steel Safari. This means that those of you still on the wait list have a good chance of getting your slot granted (because most people cannot make travel plans this late).

As such, we will be cycling through the remaining slots at an accelerated rate. If you get a “Slot Granted” email please get back to me ASAP whether you can make it or not.

To check your “wait list slot #” at any time, just load the registration/confirmation link from the registration emails.
