AggieMM Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Great match today. Very busy/hectic day, but glad we got done. Competitors are going to have a lot of fun next weekend. Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskapopo Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Any issues with target visiblity? A friend of mine last year said at certain times of the day the targets were almost impossible to see. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat It was overcast all day so we didn't have trouble. There is one long range stage and the targets were painted white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskapopo Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 (edited) Cool will they be painting the targets this year? That would be great but I know it slows things down. I am really looking forward to the match! pat Edited April 15, 2012 by Alaskapopo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 The steel on the long-range stage was painted white but the .30 cals wipe the paint right off the 100 yard steel, so it doesn't last long on those. The rest of the rifle steel is painted black and there were no troubles seeing it even in heavy overcast and my 1943-era iron sights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biga9999 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Reminder to everyone that shot the RO match. Please do not post any photos or video of the RO match until after the main match. Want it to be a surprise for everyone. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbrowndog Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I've had issues pulling up the rules for the last 2 days, is there some reason besides my possible incompetency??? Trapr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmccrock Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Trapr - Sorry about that. Last minute tweaks on the target scoring (using 3GN cardboard instead of IPSC) means there are some changes and the website has not been fixed except not point to the old ones. I have attached the update. Lee 2012-TXMG CHAMP RULES-Rev5.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DyNo! Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I wonder how many will opt to shoot one per circle instead of two on paper. There isn't a lot of non-scoring space on them: http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=149876&st=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biga9999 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I shot these targets for the first time yesterday. I am not a strong pistol shooter, but had many more double A hits than usual. I like them. But then again I can have fun shooting st any target. Shooting stuff is fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do limit the wild-hosing possibilities, but on the upside, aiming is easier-- just wack your sights into the middle and hammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chainring Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 What are the guidelines for spectators? My Dad may ride his motorcycle down and drop by Saturday if spectating is allowed? Another buddy has some boys about 8 and 10 that are interested in coming to see the action - what about that? When is the re-enactment from the Pacific War museum, I know they'd like that! Thanks.

The re-enactment is Sunday at noon. A $5 spectator fee was mentioned on the Facebook page for the event. I'm not sure if that is for the reenactment or to gain access to the range on any day. Spectators are allowed though. Eye and ear protection would be required on the range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtielke Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Is it possible to have someone check in for us on Thursday afternoon or are there releases that need to be signed? There's just no way work will permit me to make it there by 6 on Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesb74 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Same here. Work is not going to allow me to be there by 6pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 (edited) Same here. Work is not going to allow me to be there by 6pm. Yes. Just spoke to Marcy. If you have a friend you're shooting with then you can have them check you in and pick up your stuff for you. Whatever we can do to get 99% of folks check in on Thursday will help. There will be very LIMITED time for stragglers on Friday morning. Edited April 16, 2012 by Eagle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cajun0007 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Great! Do we need to let Marcy know prior to Thursday who is going to check us in? thanks, James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Great! Do we need to let Marcy know prior to Thursday who is going to check us in? thanks, James Send a note to support@texasmultigun.com with that info.

One more thing, if for some reason we don't have your waiver you will need to send it with your designate or show up in person to check in. No waiver = not shooting the match.

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.
