HI5-O Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 1 hour ago, rowdyb said: i actually bought the tshirt. normally i can't stand match shirts. i know it's not as cheap as just going to the fedex depot and shipping my ammo but i just check two bags, each of them having 3-400 rounds in them. fingers crossed i'm under the 11lbs of ammo, per bag, and on the way back i just collapse the second checked bag into the first. i'm on a Wed/Thur squad, so I doubt I'll see any of you there. Have fun! I was told by the airlines I'm flying on the limit was 11 lbs per passenger. We had to order ammo to shoot this match plus whatever we can check in with the airlines. Also shooting on Weds/Thurs so might see you there. Anyone know if there will be an open bay for function fire and to check my zero? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a large bay for the 2014 nationals and he declared the bay "not part of the match" if I remember correctly.

ChuckS Posted March 13, 2017 Author Share Posted March 13, 2017 Ken says the round count is 505 + 15 for the team relay... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckS Posted March 13, 2017 Author Share Posted March 13, 2017 Stages are up. From an email: " PDF of stages are posted to Dropbox here: https://goo.gl/HVZ1vR I expect these will adjust a bit, so don't get too committed to them as the precisely are. The range map/stage layout and matrix will be added a bit later today. " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAC702 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 (edited) Assuming it's the same as we had at Berry's Steel Open, also a Ken-directed major match at same facility, the entire squad is in a relay where a shooter does the short course, then runs back to tag another, who runs up, shoots it, tags, etc. Smaller squads have their best shooters shoot twice. There is a table for dumping a loaded gun. Plan ahead if a shooter is going twice, so his gun is the easiest to get back to. Yes, it's not "fair" if your whole squad is shooting SS against a squad of PCC. It's fun. Get over it.

2MoreChains Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Pulled in this evening after driving down from Idaho in the rain and snow. Snow flurries with mixed rain from about Fillmore all the way passed Cedar City. Actually Cedar was near white-out conditions. Fortunately descending down into St. George was a return to blue skies and dry roads. Looking forward to being here this week. A ton of work has already gone into getting the stages on the ground!

Sandbagger123 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 (edited) So i am looking at the schedule. the last squad is scheduled to shoot at 17:50 . So assuming everything go to schedule the match with the one hour arb and closing ceremony it won't be over till 9 pm ? i have not been to SUPS for a few years. Do they have lighting and or a clubhouse? Edited March 28, 2017 by Sandbagger123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sell those Rolls Royce blasters and come slumming down in Production with us, where $800 worth of Glock stuff can win you the title as long as you don't mind having an aneurism planning a bajillion mag changes. Then you'll be able to travel first class anytime you like. (okay okay, we all know you really "need" $2K worth of Tanfoglio in Production, but play along...)

Pssh I only have one space gun, and it is more like a Camaro price tag than a rolls!Once I'm happy with where I'm at in open I'm gonna bust out the single stack and lay some skinny gun hate. Maybe next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
