Sponsor Spotlight - Cabela's

The folks at Cabela's in Reno have long been backers of the Gun Blogger Rendezvous and this year (GBR XI) is no different.

Jaime and the crew at the Reno Cabela's contributed a great prize pack that'll be part of this year's HAVA raffle. The whole package comes in at just shy of $200 retail value and includes a Cabela's range bag, Herter's All In One Cleaning Kit and Cabela's Moist-Wick shirt.

The Reno Cabela's is a favorite stop of Rendezvous attendees and is located about 4-miles from the California border, just west of Reno.

GBR XI Sponsor Spotlight - Ruger

Tonight is the big night - if you're registered to attend this year's Rendezvous, be on the look-out for your gift card code via email so you can get your ammo ordered for the weekend! Also, attendee packets hit the mail this weekend so in the next few days you should be receiving an itinerary and probably a few typos as I couldn't find anyone late Friday evening to serve as a second set of eyes! :)

A big part of helping the Gun Blogger Rendezvous go off without a hitch is the role that our sponsors like Ruger play. Ruger, in particular, has been very kind to the GBR over the years and GBR XI is no exception.

Ken from Ruger sent over a number of great prizes to be included in the raffle and some door prize items as well. The backpack style bags are very high quality and there's a duffle included that could serve as a nice range bag or just serve as a supplementary holder for your gear.

It's still not too late to get involved and head to Reno for this year's GBR. If you're interested, registration is still open and there are a few slots available. We'd love to have you join us!

As usual, the majority of the non-shooting events will take place at the Silver Legacy. We have special group rates that you can get by booking with the group code "GBlog16". To get the group rates, you will have to call 1-800-687-8733. (Sorry, they can't accept our group discount online).
