Thunder Stick Summit (shotguns) 9/9-11 Dallas, TX

[marcin]

No, it's 1100 rounds.

"Students will need ... approximately 1000 rounds of birdshot/training ammunition and 100 rounds of mixed buckshot and slugs."

I'll order and ship the birdshot straight to Dallas, but I was going to fly with slugs and buck -- do we have a breakdown of how much of either we'll need?

[SeriousStudent]

Marcin, the exact number is being discussed right now. Darryl's chatting with all the instructors to try and get a solid number.

[marcin]

Any further updates on ammo counts for buckshot and slugs?

[Erick Gelhaus]

I checked in with Darryl again yesterday to get the answer. He told me he’d share it today. My apologies.

This just went to the registered attendees:


A Message from Hardwired Tactical Shooting-Darryl Bolke and Wayne Dobbs:
Good Evening to all attendees of Thunderstick Summit 2022. I have discussed plans with each instructor for round counts. I wanted to modify the numbers to reflect the round count. It looks like you should be able to get by with 500-600 rounds of bird shot. 40 Rounds of Buck Shot and 10-20 rounds of slugs. Most of the slug and buck will be used for patterning. 
Please make sure your ammunition will reliably cycle your shotgun. 


Thank You
Darryl Bolke

Awesome. Got my bird shot ordered and shipped down to @SeriousStudent.

Indeed.
Looking forward to the AARs.
And to next year’s TSS (ThunderStick Summit) - I hope to attend that one with @Suvorov
