Rokslide Member Arizona Shooting Days

[MuleyFever]

Rokstoks were a hit and I left both a 223 and 260 Rem unsuppressed for folks to get a feel for how it manages the recoil. @MuleyFever also swapped his 7PRC Tikka into a Rokstok and shot from both prone and seated positions. His feedback was that the gun didn't try to flip up on him as much and overall recoil and feel was able to be managed better. He has very large hands and was able to make the short trigger reach work just fine. Overall it was clear that a lot of folks have put into practice the things they've learned from hunting and on Rokslide. We had some elite level shooting from folks using their hunting guns in some not so easy shooting conditions between the winds and mirage.

I really wanted to make it to that event, but still out of state. I appreciate all the work it took to get it going. Hope to see you all during the next one.

Couldn’t make it this time, hopefully I can next time

Will this be happening again in 2026? Looks awesome.

Bad news gents, I'm in for 2026.

Maybe this time, I'll be able to shoot prone since I'll be a year older.

Are you going to be running the prone archery shooting event?

It's easy getting on the ground to shoot prone. The hard part is getting back up

 

[MuleyFever]

For sure.

Thinking of trying to get a course set up next tine?

That was the original intent. Depends on time availability as we get closer.

Just thinking about this makes me hurt all over given how the prone rifle attempt went last time.

For sure.

We started looking at dates for this year yet?

Everyone check out the new post for the 2026 meet up.

March 20-22 Friday to Sunday.

I have a lot of more t/posts out there and steel to set up for a competition. I can also set up a second “range” on a lane just a few hundred yards down the road for those who want to compete.

Last time we spent a good part of Saturday helping set up guns and doing some zeroing with instruction and chasing gremlins in the system. I had a plan to do a little comp, but didn’t push it cause it was productive for everyone.
