Doug H. Posted June 6, 2012 Author Share Posted June 6, 2012 With expired slots comes openings for waiting list guys! Several companies made decisions on 5/31 and Scott is sorting them out. With Ironman in the middle (Scott shot Open and is ROing the TO match) we'll still need a few days to finish up the final slots. Butch, I know you are probably reading this and you are 2nd on the wait list now, keep your fingers crossed. The Staff match filled up so we added another squad and anyone who wants to shoot with the ROs can send me an application, but make it quick and give me a heads up via email, we need to get shirts ordered this week. All contact and app info at www.nwmultigun.com. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug H. Posted June 6, 2012 Author Share Posted June 6, 2012 Crossing my fingers for one of those Main Match unused Sponsor slots so I can stick around for the night match too. We are going by match application dates and you 6th on the wait list to get in the main match. Still may be some cancelations but you never know.

Doug H. Posted June 9, 2012 Author Share Posted June 9, 2012 (edited) I've finished the squadding and matrices for both the Main and Staff Matches. Take a look to see who you are shooting with and when, the Squads and Matrices are listed at the bottom on the Sponsor Page on our website: http://www.nwmultigun.com/2012_Sponsors_1Q0K.html This match should run on time and you need to be at the proper stage at the time stated on the matrix. Squads 1-10 are in the Main Match on Saturday and Sunday, 7/14 and 7/15. Squads 11-17 will be shooting the Staff Match on Thursday and Friday 7/12 and 7/13. Awards and Prizes will be on Sunday 7/15 at 3:00PM. If you are shooting the Staff Match be aware that the match will not start till 12:30PM on Thursday, 7/12, to allow for final setup and the Staff Meeting in the morning. Staff will meet at the COSSA range no later than 8:00AM, please do not be late. If you have a problem with the squadding please feel free to contact me but understand that there is not much wiggle room left for changes. I tried to accomdate all the requests from shooters and I think I got them all in. See you all in Bend next month!

jid2 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 What sort of range are we talking on the longer rifle shots, do I need some "fly straight at long range" ammo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug H. Posted June 15, 2012 Author Share Posted June 15, 2012 What sort of range are we talking on the longer rifle shots, do I need some "fly straight at long range" ammo. We are not planning any shots longer than 350 yards. There will be one 600 yard target, but you will shoot it with a custom RBros rifle that is zeroed for that distance. Only problem for the shooter will be wind and pulling the trigger. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stlhead Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Doug, For us iron sight shooters, I assume that the 350 yard target (and all of the other longer targets as well) will be around a 4moa target with a suitable contrasting backer much like you presented to us last year? You and Scott gave us challenging but visible targets last year, and I would be pleased if that could continue at the new venue. The fact that you guys use falling steel is greatly appreciated by many shooters. The room is booked and we are ready to enjoy the Bend area to it's fullest! Looking forward to seeing you in around a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busyhawk Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Just to answer what Jesse is asking...this rifle as with all other things for the match are being given away via random draw. Just like last year we had all the shooters make a line and both Doug and I handed out bags to the shooters and shook all the shooters hands and then it was the mad search to see what every shooter got! The majority of shooters last year wanted it the same way so here it is. I will take another poll this year after the match and see what the majority says again. We really try to listen to what the shooters want...like don't have to many slug requirements! If it were just Doug and I making our own match there would be lots of slugs!!!! There is a trophy and cash pay out to the ~top 10% of each division just like drag racing! Every one gets to walk the random draw...we will have all the bags made up prior to the RO squads finishing so they don't have to stick around for the end (not the ROs of course:-). Respectively, Busyhawk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmanP Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I don't mind slugs, just need to stock up on a whole bunch if we need them. The only reason I don't like them is I don't have all that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallGuy Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I don't mind slugs either. The longer range shots force you become a better marksman and to learn your equipment better. That and I have a case in the closet that just isn't going to shoot itself :0) Mike Saslawsky TY56783 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screw it I'm booking flights for Saturday thru Wednesday. Somebody will be a no show at game time. Plus I really want to shoot that night match. I have already reserved a Police Helicopter with one if those big spot lights to fly over me when I shoot at night. I'd hate to miss the look on Chuck's face when he sees me game the dark.
