  3. Just 2 weeks away Still time to get your entry in. Stages and full information on Area 3 website Sherwyn
  4. Saturday single day schedule is almost full Still room in the Friday or 2 day format. Hope to see you there, Sherwyn
  5. Yes Final stages should be up on the website in a couple days Sherwyn
  6. Hornady will be setting up a display tent at the match. Each night after shooting, (approximately 4:30-7:00) they will be showing their appreciation to the competitors by serving adult refreshments at their tent. Hope to see you there, Sherwyn
  7. Might have been in reference to PIN for squadding. But you can use your PIN from Front Sight label to squad. Sherwyn
  8. Think the registration has the award details...but maybe not so... Prize table will be order of finish with class winners leading, along with several prizes (still working on this list) that will be done by random draw. There will also be drawing for the raffle gun. Sherwyn
  9. Hornady is offering a special discount on HAP bullets for Area 3 competitors. Check it out on Area 3 website Sherwyn
  10. Sorry Jake, Gotta disagree with you on this one. I've put the timer and calculator to this many times and have found VERY few times that it is not an advantage to shoot while moving. Now I do have to qualify this by saying that my movements while not shooting are not going to be anywhere as quick as yours but even putting the timer to my son Nick's shooting, we get the same results. Nick will tell yo that he always feels faster when stopping and shooting, but that's not what the timer says. That said, What I see happen most often is that taking even a single target on the move can sometimes drastically change a stage plan, and most just don't look at it. Sherwyn
  11. Two main choices Fly into Omaha, then rental for 2 hour drive to Grand Island or Fly into Denver and commuter service direct to Grand Island. Airport just minutes from range and hotels Plan to make it worth the trip. 14 stages, 300++ don't have exact round count Sherwyn
  12. Think you mean you want to use the C-more railway and yes it will work, that is what I have on mine. Of course you could drill and tap the marvel rail and use a slide ride. Sherwyn
  13. Don't have my Front Sight Mag with me, will be checking it out. This does not match any conversation I have had with John Amidon. Will follow up. Sherwyn
  14. What is "National" ?? It sounds like, to work as a CRO at the Nationals, they may want you to have experience ? There's now an "experience requirement" to enroll in the CRO class, handed down by the NROI RMI group. As a Section Coordinator and former MD, I'm not certain that's a good idea -- IMHO we should be encouraging the folks who design and build stages at local (most) matches to get more education, and not make that process harder.... Think we are getting some items mixed together. There are experience requirement similar to those mentioned for completion of Range Master., but no such requirements to enter CRO program. You are required a year as an RO. Yes we would like as many ROs and CROs as possible. And we have made the CRO course available as a correspondence course to make it easier. Sherwyn
  15. How old is your dot module? When they start to fade it shows up as short battery life...if you test the battery, you might find it really is not that weak. Smaller dots seem to fade faster for me, I use a 6MOA and only run it a season before replacing it. Sherwyn
  16. My guess would be it is mid 80's vintage. Actually quite a few around, have numerous of that vintage around our plant. But be warned, there is a good chance your first breakdown will cost you more than that to repair. When ours hit a major repair, we strip it for parts and scrap metal the rest. And yes it would definitely be 3 phase. Sherwyn
  17. Would have to be an evening tour...I will add it to my list of things to check out Sherwyn
  18. Will keep everyone posted on the tour availability Here is the application A3 app.doc Hope to see you there Sherwyn
  19. Match hotel Howard Johnson Riverside Inn 3333 Ramada Road, Grand Island, NE 68801-8875 (308) 384-5150‎ HOTEL SPECIAL GROUP RATE: $76.00 Mention USPSA Area 3 Championship Details will be on uspsa3.org soon Sherwyn
  20. Have discussed tour possibilities. Would there be interest if tours were available Saturday during off time for those shooting 2 day format? Sherwyn
  21. Mostly agree with all the previous comments. Two things I can add from experience. It is VERY easy to buy too small a compressor. You will hate the noise in your gun room / basement. After several other methods over the years, I now have a large compressor in my shop (outside) and ran a small 1/4" plastic line to an 3 gallon tank in my gun room. Got all the air I need for gun work and NO noise. Just my .02 Sherwyn
