ZackJones Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 I can share some info about the match. Dan was right it will be in Atlanta at South River Gun Club. It WILL be a sanctioned Tier III Match. It will be held in April the weekend of 15/16. Yes I know that is Easter weekend. That's all I know at this time. More info as soon as I can provide it.

jdphotoguy Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Awesome, closer to my neck of the woods, so might be able to make this one.Thanks Zack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stango424 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 So it will be an SCSA event? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPGMD Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Hmm I wish they would keep it in March, April pushes it into the season to other big southern matches. The old late March date kept it out of the way of many other matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottlep Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Easter weekend doesn't sound like a great plan. Beside the obvious family commitments, travel and flights will be more crowded and more expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZackJones Posted August 21, 2016 Author Share Posted August 21, 2016 I will double check the match dates but I looked before replying and that's what I have in the email. It actually shows 10 - 16 April which much include setup and other stuff. Perhaps thats the dates the range is reserved for the match. Obviously there will be more to come but I wanted to get the word out as soon as I possibly good. I'm very happy to see it's going to be a sanctioned match. I'll actually shoot it now :).

photoracer Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Sounds good to me. Atlanta is within driving range from WV. Heck I used to race at Road Atlanta and Roebling Road in Savanah. And that was an RV towing a racecar trailer. Any idea, Zack, when registration will open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will know much more after WSSC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danjordan78 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Should I believe everything I see on the internet now Zach?:) Just kidding. Glad to hear it will be sanctioned but sorry to see it leaving Florida. Everyone have fun at the WSSC this weekend. Wish I could be there but a new job is keeping me from it. Will be at more in the future! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PPGMD Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 No Sunday? And I sure hope that is oriented toward the Super Squad, and that everyone else are allowed to shoot whatever division they want on the last day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZackJones Posted September 15, 2016 Author Share Posted September 15, 2016 Big News the US Steel Nationals dates for 2017 have changed. The match will now be held March 29th through April 2nd. I'm getting confirmation if we'll be shooting on all days or if the match will conclude on Saturday. Spread the word! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPGMD Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Still in Atlanta? Either way good news, I think the new dates will make it easier for some shooters to attend other matches. Though it might be a little on the cold side in Atlanta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hornetx40 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Zack Check with Jason....I think the range will be open starting on March 26th for Practice. He need to change the format so people can shoot any gun on any day. That way people can shoot on the days they have available and not be forced to shoot certain days.

scottlep Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 They won't force you to shoot other days. They prefer that RF and CF shoot certain days but I guarantee they wont force you. Previous Nats and WSSC have usually been set up with certain RF and CF days but people shoot whenever they can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
