sbmd Posted October 28, 2011 Author Share Posted October 28, 2011 Over 30 round mags are good for everyone except you Chuck...just because you asked. I thought you were a detective and you couldn't find the information. I have not seen nor heard anything that would prevent anyone from using ANY type of magazine in tactical division with the exception of the Beta Mag in either the FNH3G or 3Gun Nation Championship.

swandme Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Will we be able to drive close to all stages with a car or mini van ? How bad is the Dust likely to be ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbmd Posted October 28, 2011 Author Share Posted October 28, 2011 Rumor has it that it may snow this weekend there! shhhhhh! don't use the S word, That does make it more difficult to see a white popper Poppers will be gray with a huge yellow card behind them for contrast...of yea, we are stealing an idea from Jeff, we will be putting lime on the ground to the sides and behind the rifle target to assist with getting on target. The only way I can make this any easier is to ask you what score you want and write that down without firing a shot. Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbmd Posted October 28, 2011 Author Share Posted October 28, 2011 (edited) Will we be able to drive close to all stages with a car or mini van ? How bad is the Dust likely to be ? Parking will be within 50 yards of all stages and there will be no dust, all roads are packed gravel. Besides all the rain they have had, it will take two years to dry out to make dust on the roads. Seriously, dust will be minimal. You must have been at the Ozark match....I am still cleaning dust from my equipment.

Larry Bullet-splatter gray w/ a yellow card works pretty well as long as the targets aren't in the shadows of trees. Thanks Larry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Anderson Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Over 30 round mags are good for everyone except you Chuck...just because you asked.

I have not seen nor heard anything that would prevent anyone from using ANY type of magazine in tactical division with the exception of the Beta Mag in either the FNH3G or 3Gun Nation Championship. Larry Oh I found it, but I also figured you'd be using posted rules, not a 15 page Enos thread to run your match. Since I actually read the rules you posted, this is what's in them 5.3.4.6 Magazine capable of holding no more than 30 rounds inserted at any time. Coupled magazines are permitted. Now gramatically I'm not really sure what that sentence means, but but it seems like you still have in the rules no more than 30 in a mag? Thought it might be nice for your shooters who don't troll Enos constantly. You know, those that aren't highly qualified like me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benelli2 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 White powdered lime is the heat, giving target visibility and allowing shooters see where the misses are going and correct which is usually hidden by huge plastic backers, how do folks learn and correct when they can;t see where they are missing? duh! great news Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbmd Posted October 29, 2011 Author Share Posted October 29, 2011 I will have it posted on the web and emailed to each shooter......Chuck is always looking out for the little guy. Chuck, after talking at length with Tommy, the mag restriction in Tactical divisions has been lifted! Hopefully that is plain english...without a southern drawl. Now lets see, Jeff we are having something new at this match. I had Travis make special targets for our match. On the front of your standard MGM steel target we have fitted them with bullet attracting magnets so that will prevent the shooter from having to reengage the targets as each one will register a hit. Now if you are shooting frangible ammunition, there is nothing I can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ap3 Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 (edited) I wasn't joking when I posted to bring clothes to dress in layers. We are supposed to get up to 6 inches by tonight. Don't worry it will be up to 60 by Thursday of this week. Edited October 29, 2011 by ap3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agusta Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Received the following message from forum member Agusta: Due to a beating worthy schedule mixup neither myself nor Wayne Allen will be able to attend the match now. It is our wish to donate our slots and entry fee to 2 current or retired military members. Not sure how to get the word out on how to do this but would appreciate your assistance in facilitating this. Please contact Agusta if you are a current and retired military member that wishes to participate in the match and you are not already registered. If you know of someone please have them contact Agusta. Agusta and Wayne, thank you for your support to those who are serving or have served. Larry Just a quick note that these 2 slots have been filled. Thanks to Larry and Linda for arranging the transfer to 2 soldiers that i'm sure will have a great time. Good luck everyone and enjoy!

sbmd Posted November 1, 2011 Author Share Posted November 1, 2011 (edited) I have been contacted by another participant that cannot make the match.

Also, the aones are as follows: ZONE 1 - stages 1-3, ZONE 2 - stages 4-6 and ZONE 3 - stages 7-9. Sorry I did not make that clear. Yes built in shooting sticks are considered a supporting device.
