Chuck Anderson Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 So who do I email or call about changing squads? I'm stuck shooting with that Kurt "Iron Sight" Miller and I don't want his icky irons to get all over my beautiful open guns. Just kidding Kurt. But I am traveling with another guys 17 year old kid that they put on a different squad and I'm guessing someone is going to want me to keep an eye on him. Although it would be nice to drop his wise ass off with someone else for the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springy Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Looking for current/actual rules for next week's match. In Heavy Metal, can you use 10 round tube on shotgun (load as many as you want after the start)? Pistol is 8 or 10 rounds - can we use bigger mag and load it to class limit? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlaw973 Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Just in case someone doesn't know, Hwy 124 is closed west of Harrisburg for a bridge replacement. If you're coming from Columbia you will have to take Hwy 240 into Fayette, then Hwy 124 to Hwy H. Hope that doesn't confuse anyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I typically just follow the GPS and the roads it says to turn onto rarely match the sign, consequently I don't know if this is on my route or not..

barrysuperhawk Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 (edited) GPS coordinates and/or an address that works with most GPS units would be wonderful if anyone has that info. 39.209845,-92.591743 for the entrance to CMMG, assuming Google maps, Bing maps AND Yahoo all have it right. Actually, if you type CMMG into any of the map sites, they all seem to find it correctly. If you use the full address, [620B County Rd 118, Fayette, MO 65248] you end up off by a half mile or so, but on the right road: Google error, Cmmg at B NOT A the official maps are here MoDOT PDF detailing construction location Edited May 15, 2011 by barrysuperhawk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fueddy Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 I have a question. 1st Big match and I was wondering. If there a sight in stage or anything before the match? If not, for the semi-local guys,is there a range with at least 200yrds around say an hour or so? Me and another guy sighted in @200 but our 3rd guy cant seem to find a time/place to sight in and we leave Weds. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbrowndog Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Kelly i was not trying to say that you won because of Kurt bending his sight, merely that due to it, it gave him a distinct hurdle to overcome right out of the box. btw, you missed a good pig outing this weekend, go to RNT on facebook. trapr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

assaulter Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 The forecast is looking grim, but this is Missouri, so the weather changes rapidly. It was in the 90's a few days ago and now it's in the 50's. Oh well, what's a little rain......and mud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fueddy Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Been watching the weather the past few days and its matched Michigan here with this Sunny and Hot into Gloomy and wet crap lol Fingers cross for a strong wind to blow the crap out and sun in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiggerJJ Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 (edited) This is what I'm packing for the match: http://midwest3gun.com/rules.htm Ineresting set of rules I don't see a link on their homepage...but they do say they are the 2011 rules. They also contradict some of the email updates...ie; safe abandonment and 1x in iron divisions. And I could not find a shotgun caliber requirement in any division, so looks like a 410 shotgun is legal, including Heavy Metal division (as long as its a pump). amazing... jj Edited May 15, 2011 by RiggerJJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, well, it's not like I come to this match because it's all well-organized and pretty. Mud? What Mud?

stewj Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Other than packing a rain coat what does everybody do different to get ready for a match in the rain? Different gear? Setting up gun different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrysuperhawk Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Other than packing a rain coat what does everybody do different to get ready for a match in the rain? Different gear? Setting up gun different? Full rubber Mud boots are likely to be a lifesaver. A good hat. Lots of oil - Rem-oil or something else in a spray, and an oily rag for wiping. Extra batteries and canned air if you have an electronic optic] Waterproof bags/boxes for any electronice [phones, cameras, etc.] A waterproof bag big enough to cover your entire range bag in case of downpour... Extra Socks In my experience, Shotgun shells are the least water resistant of the ammo we use, so a plan to keep them dry can't hurt. If you are sensitive about mud in your vehicle, then spare shoes/socks, a bag for the mud stuff and some washing water might be helpful, washing your feet in cooler water is exhilirating!

Agusta Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Are we going to be able (or need to as the case might be) to drive between stages and will 4wd be required if it's raining? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilBetty Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 No, everyone uses carts between stages (short distances). You might need 4WD if it gets too muddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
