We'd love to be there but I'm having two crowns done at 3:30 on the 12th :shock: Marshall (our OCDO VB dentist) says he needs the money for more ammo :D Hopefully we'll be able to make the next dining out....

Bubba, tell Marshall he needs to be extra special gentle so you don't miss the dinner! And tell him to come along. We haven't seen him at one in a long time.

Then of course, there's me.:? I will try to be there.

Does anyone coming to the dinner want to swap 80 rounds of 223 for 7.62x39(Winchester)?

I have a new toy to feed and Chickahominy opens in a few weeks. I haven't seen 223 ammo anywhere so any suggestions are welcome.

We have been getting our 223 ammo from http://www.Wideners.com but haven't been there for a while so not sure what's now in stock - you might also check http://www.ammoengine.com/

Wish I did not have to work till 5:30pm. Since I live in Norfolk, it makes it hard to get up to Newport News in time.

;) Thanks for shaking me back into reality! I did lose my sense of priorities there for a second. Seriously though,how late do these events usually run...never been before. There might be a chance I could still come if I knew for sure you all would be there for a couple of hours at least.

I have been to 4-5 dinners and they usually break up after about two hours. So you have time to eat and talk for a while. So 7-9pm at the restaurant and sometimes people either stand around in the parking lot or a few head somewhere else.
