aheadofthecurve Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Bring on the 500! I can ding it all day at my home range Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Tischauser Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Plus I'd bet more than half the competitors never get to shoot their rifles past 200-300 yards. Personally I'd rather shoot 10 targets at 350 and in rather than 1-2 at 400 & 500. Jesse I gotta say, you've finally said something I can agree with you on 110%,......BRAVO!!!!!! BTW, thanks for the sticker info, I've got more coming. Trapr Nice unfortunately the shape didn't lend itself to a long skinny shape for a shotgun tube.

usp45ss Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Anybody got a rough round count for this one? I vaguely remember no slugs from last year. That still the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fueddy Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Been wondering if any info was going to be posted before the match lol Looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Tischauser Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I think the range has rules about no slugs don't they? We haven't shot any in the two years that I have been attending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClutchUSMC Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 So no slugs? What about buckshot? Allowed on steel or not? Round counts? Stages? Anything? Also, whats the parking like? We are looking at driving an RV and pulling a Rhino to get around. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fueddy Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 There were no slugs or buck last year. Bring 250 of each and have spares is my thinking. Parking was ok. I think you'll be fine with what your driving. There were 2 or 3 RV's last year but I think they stayed there the whole time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Tischauser Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Pretty sure 6's was the largest shot we were allowed to use last year. And I did use some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Payne Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 ClutchUSMC There were a few spots for motorhomes on the range. I would advise contacting Ken Flood, or CMMG and asking for one of the spots as they might already be taken. Parking on the range is pretty good unless there is a lot of rain.

ClutchUSMC Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Thanks guys, I'll leave the slug and buck and bring the pheasant loads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assaulter Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Thanks guys, I'll leave the slug and buck and bring the pheasant loads. Good idea. I fully expect to see that swinger again. Last year wasn't bad, but I wouldn't put it past him to move it back a few yards either. I did see some people shooting it on a windy day with cylinder bores at 15 yards a couple months ago. That was entertaining to watch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was entertaining to watch! I had it at 17 yards in my last club match, flitecontrol buck was the ticket. But yeah it really hurt the guys without cokes, you might as well shoot it twice to avoid the FTE and keep on going with a cylinder bore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flight control rocks those things though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flight control rocks those things though! I usually designate both plates must be engaged... i.e. they are seperate targets. Spinning is a penalty or bonus depending on the stage.

Fullauto_Shooter Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Will slings be required for either the rifle or shotgun? Can anyone confirm that we won't need / be able to use either slugs or buckshot? I looked on the website but didn't see the rules - did I overlook them?

assaulter Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 At their webpage go to upcoming events and click on 2012 Midwest 3gun championships link. The rules are at a link there. It took me forever to find them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Tischauser Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Just saw the round count on the match Twitter page. 26 rifle 31 shot 15 pistol That's one hit per target so you probably ought to double that. Oh and if you think I'm serious you probably ought not show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
