Pretty much any centerfire rifle and pistol, eyes, ears, enough ammo to complete the COF, flashlight (pistol stage in a cave) and some type of stopwatch. You can use pretty much any equipment to carry everything, but must include a secure holster.

I did this once when I first began loading for Grendel, and didn’t have any brass handy. Added CFE223 powder and 123gr ELDs with fairly good performance. Not really cost...
Very nice.

I don't think this Saturday is in the cards for me, but I hope to make it to one of your matches sometime soon. You're fairly local to me, so it would be a shame not to.
