biga9999 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 (edited) Is that the first email you received? The email I am referring to has all of your personal information on it, shirt size, space for who you want to squad with, etc... and then the body of the email is a waiver form. The email had the following at the top: I think I received mine in October. Dear @#$%,Thank you for your application to the 2012 LaRue Tactical Texas Multigun Championship. To complete the application process, competitors are required to print completed form, sign the waiver and mail it in with a check or money order. Applications will be accepted by order of receipt. We are limiting the number of shooters for the main match to the first 315 shooters. There will be a limited number of slots available to shoot with match staff the weekend before, April 13-15, 2012. Thank you for your support, we'll see you in April. Sheldon Carruth www.texasmultigun.com It should have been mailed in with your check/money order. I received a second email with the following in March. (copied below) This is not the email with the waiver info. Greetings $%^&:Your spot in the match is confirmed, so you better get ready for the 2012 LaRue Tactical Texas Multigun Championship! It’s going to be a great match because many people have been working hard for a year to make this a success for everyone involved, competitors and sponsors alike. The stages will be dynamic and will challenge all your shooting abilities. There will be many of LaRue Tactical’s innovative products on the prize table. LaRue Tactical will also be serving some of the finest barbecue in the world; all courtesy of our very generous match sponsor, Mark LaRue. Thanks for registering for the match, we’ll see you in April.

Eagle Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Waiver....is that something we would have sent in with our entry form and payment? I don't remember, and don't have a waiver laying around that I set aside to bring with me...hoping that was something I sent it already? Pull up the email you got from "postmaster@texasmulti-gun.com" This should be the email you received after you signed up on line. The waiver is in the body of the email, just print and sign. My confirmation email dated 2/14/12 did not include a waiver form. You are misunderstanding--the email you received at the time of registration, which you printed and signed and sent with the match fees, included the waiver. If you recently received a confirmation, we should already have your waiver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskapopo Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Well my dope is good to 400 and thats as far as I could test. Handgun is ready, shotgun is ready rifle is ready, but I am getting nervious again. Managed to get all my three gun gear into two hard cases that weigh just under 50 pounds. Alaska Airlines lets Alaska residents fly with 2 bags for free. Now I will see if I can get my clothes and misc into a carry on bag lol. See you guys down there.

Alaskapopo Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 (edited) Thanks you guys are great. I think I got it however. I did have to down size my carry gun from my Glock 26 to my Smith scandium J frame to make weight. Anyway thanks again. Looking foward to this match, already have butterflies in my stomach. quick question anyone know approximately how much 40 degrees and 1000 feet will change my dope. I am expecting it to increase my velocity about 50 fps or so but not sure. Pat Edited April 17, 2012 by Alaskapopo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can adjust the altitude, temperature, pressure, etc. and get a decent feel for what changes to expect. I'm sure there are other ballistic calculators, this is just the one I'm most familiar with.

Pat my Trag program from Houris shows 40 deg 1000el to have 10.4 moa hold over at 500 yards the change to 1700 el and 80 deg is 9.8moa hold over at 500 yards this is for my 69 gr bullet at 2800 fps. The targets are 4 moa or better i hope the Glock to j frame is a joke though If it was me I would just buy new clothes when I got to Austin and take every pice of gear I needed Edited April 17, 2012 by AlamoShooter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DyNo! Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 A lot of calculations change one you factor in a 50 mph full value crosswind. I wouldn't worry about it too much, there is only so much one can prepare for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I broght some 77gr just in case the wind gets up over 50. I'm way more worried about loading my shotgun than hitting long range steel. No need to buy clothes just wear what your shooting in.

dcloudy777 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Did we ever get a final count on WWII division entries?
