DyNo! Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Cameron, I pm'd Trapr earlier in the week to shoot with an Austin shooter (he goes by Gorilla Tactical on ar15) that RO'd the Larue match that you and I shot together along with Ben (I'm the other Ben). I was running the 870 pump. You should join us. Ben Definitely. I shot my app in right after Blue Ridge so if it got received, you should see me there with sono (Ryan N).

bigbrowndog Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 OK just to be sure,(I know i'm going to regret this) pm me with your squad requests just to make sure I have them all, please consolidate the requests with your buddies so 5 of you don't send me the same thing. Cameron your app I have, Shakakhan, I have yours too. Kurt and I have gotten a lot of stressed texts and phone calls and emails from people worrying waaaaayyy tooooo much about targets, sizes and distances, everyone from pistol GM's to beginners is asking us for details, the new guys I can understand the worry but the older more seasoned competitors??????, i've gotten NO messages from the junior shooters. I stated precision targets will be at least 4 moa, I did not want to get into details because i think a small amount of unknown info is good for the excitement, but the precision targets will meet those requirments, they will all be slightly bigger than 4moa, not much.....but bigger. The distances will be from 20ish to 100ish for rimfire and 35ish to 300ish for centerfire. Knowing your trajectory and shooting from other positions besides prone or off a shooting bench will help, there should not be any need to practice how your gun shoots when fired with the sights tilted from vertical, or running thru 200+ yards of sand, or however you will be required to carry your gun and ammo needed to complete the stage , no slings will be required.

AlamoShooter Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Targets !? with distance !!! ? I forgot to ask What choke should I put in for a match in sunny weather? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmccrock Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Targets !? with distance !!! ? I forgot to ask What choke should I put in for a match in sunny weather? Just for you - skeet choke. The rest of us use cylinder bore. No slings - good to know but not many "big" matches require a sling and usually they get in the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbrowndog Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 division break outs after drop outs and division changes are as follows: CFU-21, CFM-62, RFU-8, and RFM-9. All four divisions will be recognized so don't worry about finding out that yours has been dropped when you show up. Trapr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtm Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 We are located 1/2 Mile North of Sorgum Mill road on Hiawase. We are the SECOND left hand turn you can make off of Hiawase... To get to Hiawase Rd. Go EAST of I-35 on highway 66 throught the Town of Arcadia to the end of the TREE FARM and turn Left! go about 5 1/2 miles and turn left. Look for the H.P.F.C. signs!

spd522 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 How good is the road to and at the range? Can the range be quite dusty/muddy or fairly clean? Just trying to decide what vehicle to drive so not to get the wife too upset. Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just trying to decide what vehicle to drive so not to get the wife too upset. Craig The road to the range is all paved. The range is not and if the wind is anything like yesterday (25-35) everything will be dusty. It is also supposed to be 100 Saturday and Sunday so plan accordingly.

38SuperDub Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Friendly note to all out of towners. When you turn off i35 towards Arcadia, I would recommend going close to the speed limit. Unless that is you like donating to the city of Arcadia fund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured it was typical of about every other range but just thought I would check for sure. Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
