Won my 4th gun in a row at RMEF
« on: March 02, 2014, 07:06:23 AM »
For the fourth year running, I want another rifle at the Rocky Mountain elk foundation dinner in Vancouver last night. It's a Ruger 10/22 stainless. I've wanted one of these for some time, so was the perfect win. It was the mystery wagon raffle.

Was it a Ruger  10/22?

I'm still half asleep. Yes, it was a Ruger 10/22.

  please explain what a mystery wagon raffle is?  we are looking for a new game in the moses lake rmef banquet.  our banquet is always the first Saturday in feb.  this year we had 11 guns up for grabs.  I am going to suggest a raspberry ruger for a game next year or maybe a purple one.  it would pump up the ladies.  over the years I have won 3 guns, but if I bought them at cost I would have enough money left over to buy a new atv.   but it is a lot of fun and for a great cause, that is why we put in a lot of hours into rmef stuff.   mike w

You're crazy if you're paying $60 a brick.

I just bought 4000 rounds at $25 per.

The mystery wagon is a nice wooden wagon filled with wrapped presents. Most of the presents are things like a pack of work gloves, a sign for a hunting cabin, fleeces, with one big prize. The .22 was the big prize. There were about 20 or so wrapped gifts in all.

That would be sweet.  I forked out the extra cash this year I put myself on the sponsor board.  Should probably have my best odds to win a gun on that.  I've won 2 in the last 4 years so it hasn't been to bad.
