There is an outlaw 3 gun match in Leroy, IL. Not sure how regular it is & not sure what rules they play by.
Never been there & don't know much about it.
There is one tomorrow 8/28/11 & 4 more scheduled this year. Contact 10-8 Outfitters http://www.10-8outfitters.com for more information.
Range address:
26389 E. 125 North Rd LeRoy, IL 61752

Nice feature.
Another nice feature I noticed was the match results for all the matches I shot since 10/2010 on the match results page of USPSA.org.
Great feature. I don't have to dig for what I have shot.
Posted at the same time as Rob. I was going to say now to get all the local clubs to upload their results every time...

Big thanks to all the RO's & everyone who put this together & made it work.
I appreciate the pictures too. Some of the action shots are great & capture the spirit of the match.

Welcome Watchtower.
Sparta USPSA should shoot this Saturday & is the most southern Illinois section club.
PASA in Barry, IL should have a club match this Sunday if you are central enough to make that.
There are other central Illinois clubs with matches & some in St. Louis as well.
PM me if you would like more information on the matches.

Maybe it was the brown steel
It was a challenging match with a lot of room for error.
Very easy to overrun a target or swing back to one. Competitors that I have shot with several times & know to be safe shooters were dq'd.
-
No one shoots free.
Right now:
$10 for people who setup on Saturday (They can shoot Saturday if they help setup & show up for setup by 9am.)
$15 for Sunday shooters.

There is a USPSA match at Lefthanders Gun Club in Loami, IL just near Springfield, up I-55 this weekend if you are willing to travel a bit to shoot.
We will be shooting 5 stages and a classifier the round count is 125.
Saturday setup crew shoots for $10.00 setup starts at 8 am. (You must help setup to shoot Saturday.)
Sunday is $15.00 sign up at 8 am reshoots are always $5.00
There are a couple of guys from around the Belleville area that usually drive up to shoot the match.
One of the guys on here (I believe from around Belleville) administers a shooting forum for the St. Louis area.

I have more information about central Illinois USPSA matches if you are interested in traveling north for local matches. I think membership at Arnold is your best bet for a lot of shooting.
I have heard a lot of good things about Arnold. Only shot there once because of the 3 shoots rule.
Good Shooting & Welcome!

No trouble with factory ammo in my older P16.

I use red. I recently switched to green to give it a try. I switched back pretty quick. I shoot a weekly indoor match where the lighting isn't all that great in some areas & I couldn't see the green fiber at all in there. I melted a big old blob so I could see it, but it just didn't work for me.

well, shucks! Maybe next month then???
I am still hoping to see a bunch of guys from the Springfield area, again.
Everyone I asked had something going on this Saturday so I wouldn't expect so.

Awesome match.
There were a lot of no-shoots & more than a few targets trying to hide from us.
I got all those hidden targets. It was the wide open target that I blew past trying to get to the target you could only see from only right there if you stretched your arms over the fault line that got me.
-
I hope so. Sooo much fun (& kinda scary for the RO.)
Will we be using the Dark House?
-
It was a good match. So glad that mother nature cooperated.
A couple of shooters in our group wanted to visit the facility for a one time experience. They want to come back now.
-
No worries. Huge PM sent with exhaustive Central Illinois USPSA match information.
Let me know if you would like more information.

Welcome to the forums!
Location may help people help you find local matches & clubs.

The local station did a spot on our local indoor club match. They had a good editor.

Hope you have a speedy recovery. You looked pretty sprightly when you finished the stage from the ground last year at STS.
Guess it sneaks up pretty quick -
I don't recall any, but everyone on the squad was working & not looking for cameras. I thought someone with a video camera may have interviewed him briefly. (Other than the squad photo which may be on his camera.)
I really enjoyed the match. It was hard not to with such a great squad.
-
Nice photos. It's too bad you didn't make it Thursday BritinUSA. It was inspring to watch the current leader and our squadmates. I wish I had brought the video camera, but it looked like rain.

Sorry to hear all this Mr. Boudrie.
I commiserate with this unfortunate occurance as someone who has experience with the notification failure of multiple hard drive failures in a Raid 5 array that had no hot spares due to budgetary & other resource issues. It stinks when the failsafes you put into place to prevent this exact situation do not work as they should. Raid 5 plus hot spares are nice when the budget & resources allocated allow for it. Occurrences like this tend to expand the budget and fill in the holes in the processes.
It is unfortunate that it was one the few scheduled times of the year that the Nationals bound folks would really become aware that the web site was down.
A lot a major sites have gone down unexpectedly.Good luck (especially with the restore, there are usually problems with unrehearsed restores.) Your work is appreciated.

Ya'll have convinced me. My app is in the mail.
