I am looking at possibly haveing a conversion done on my SV to let me shoot 9mm. I have an SV with an interchangable breachface in 40. Need names of who can do the work. Ballpark price for the project? Also, if you have one of these, any issues? Thanks!

Also wondering if we are going to have a low light/ no light event (pardon if that got answered already).

And you didnt take a picture for us?! Shame shame!

Just to toss something out there....some other clubs use the pure time measurement of performance, but ding you a half second for a C and a full second for a D. That is enough, but not too much IMHO. Carry on.

Well, we could shoot paper plates and not keep score, and I'm there Sorry to pile on with the questions but I need a rule claification....thats what happens with us gamers Rule 6.3.5 prohibits support devices on the rifle, such as "bipods, etc" -- is a coupled magazine such as an Arrendondo setup ok, as that is usually what I run. In a prone position the mags would, of course, touch the ground and be used as support, just like a single mag does, but I think at least one match has dissalowed this. Thanks and looking forward to it!

I think they added some stuff to the rules.....if you bring a golf cart you have to cary EVERYONES stuff

See the notes at Weidners....the small rifle magnum are recommended for AR loads. http://www.wideners.com/itemdetail.cfm?ite...dir=278|284|737

.... and, do we need slings for the Shottys? Nothing in the rules on that point. Also, I have only been to one match at Tiger Valley, and we were able to move vehicles around the range to haul kit....I am assuming that wont be possible this match due to the numbers, but please let us know.....if you know at this point. Thanks, and looking forward to it!!!

LOL, you da man. You just need to add the Rifles Only -- Snipers Hide Cup the next weekend. Heck, you could go from Tiger Valley to RO and catch the train up on Sunday and just stay for the match.

Do you have a guesstimate on how long the festivities will last on Sunday? Trying to make appropriate travel plans. Thanks!

Research the 375 Cheytac

Ken, go to Rifles Only. They have a PR1 and 2 combined class that takes you from the basics of position and trigger control to engaging targets in (usually) high wind out to 1000 yards....UKD target engagement....movers..... night shoots, etc. Or, if you can get a spot, look for the various competitions at Rifles Only that are put on with Snipers Hide (snipershide.com). They usually offer a "Train Up" prior to the match that takes you through fundamentals, but also works on things that you might see at a match there. Its all fun and good instruction by top quality folks. riflesonly.com Good luck....PM or ask here for any other info you need....or just call Jacob at RO. Edit to add: on equipment, there is a list at the RO website. Essentially you need a rifle and scope with a mildot or similar ranging reticle, lots of quality ammo, log book or equivalent, good sling (A Tactial Intervention is highly recommended), backpack to carry your stuff and water and snacks, and a good attitude -- be the empty cup.

LOL we hang out in the same places.

How about a 338 Norma?

LOL, I had seen the rifle before, but not the front scope cap.

Info is here: http://www.uspsa-nationals.org/Microsoft%2...Application.pdf

I think the location is excellent. (its all a mater of perspective)

First, I have not read all three pages of this thread.... However, it appears the big debate was pump vs. auto....why not just get an M3

I have the Troy rear site on my M4-gery...I believe they are the lowest made, which is what I was after. They are also the most expensive. Rock solid...I like it. The MI's look pretty good, at a much more reasonable price, but I have no first hand experience with them. http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/AR15-Iron-Sights-s/8.htm

Aint nothing wrong with that. If you go with the Badger bottom metal that accepts the AICS mags, you might find some 10 rounders floating around...if you are so inclined. Lastly, you might want to keep an eye on this guy for bullets, although the twist required will probably be prohibative from a rig shooting normal bullets. http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthread...;gonew=1#UNREAD Keep us posted.

Glad you brought this up. We will be doing six stages with two stages from the Nationals this weekend. I am going to try and do at least two more Multigun shoots during September, utilizing as many stages from the Nationals as we have the props to set up. We want to try and set the standard for 3-Gun/Multigun in this part of the country (Louisiana). This is a relatively new club, Piney Woods Action Shooters (PWAS), and the interest is starting to grow. We have excellent support from the city and the use of the range. We can pretty much do whatever we want as long as it is safe and no one is looking over our shoulders. I set up the match where it can be shot by both pistol only shooters and Multigun/3-Gun shooters alike. Where is the range? When do you go hot? Thanks!

My next rifle is gonna be a big one, and it will be the 338. Good to 2000 no problem. Course, you could go with a 375/408.... it would make the 338 reloading look cheap.

Ummmm....slugs! I'm currious what the guys/gals that are good at this think about the Rifle Standards string one....shoot two each at 100, 200, 300 then reload and repeat in 10 seconds. possible...doable, or superhuman??? This is gonna be fun.

You just got to go to the right neighboorhood Any slugs? Thanks for the report.
