Benelli Chick Posted July 11, 2012 Author Share Posted July 11, 2012 There's plenty of room THIS WEEKEND! That is, unless you're bringing 50 people with you...and we might be able to make that work as well! Love to see you! Think it'll be a really good match, with lot's of Natural Terrain and thinking involved! See you Saturday! Denise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karl @ GT Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Hello, the new target stand was tested in match conditions this weekend at the 3 gun team event in WV, it worked great and did not malfunction. It was used on a big stage that lasted approx. 1 minute for many of hte teams and the 'EVIL SPIDER' as most of hte shooter were calling it was slowing down a lot at the end of the stage, it will work much better when the stage design forces the shooters to engage the stand when it is just activated and moving a bit faster. We have the one working prototype and two more that are 90% finished, we will have pricing and a name this week. regards, Karl @ GT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benelli Chick Posted July 16, 2012 Author Share Posted July 16, 2012 We don't have GT's NEWEST EVIL creation, but we have one of his other...evil creations! AND we have a brand new target from a brand new target manufacturer called Rocky Mountain Targets...!!! These two may ending up competing for EVIL TARGET INVENTOR of the century!!!!

Benelli Chick Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 So, would you like to try stage 5 from Rocky Mountain 3-Gun again??? Well, here's you opportunity. September's Johnson 3-Gun at Rocky Mountain will only be 4 stages, but they'll all be Rocky Mountain type! We will shoot stage 5 again. Also have a shotgun/rifle combining a flying bird stage with long rifle. We plan a rifle pistol that's a throw back to 2008 in Mule Canyon and then a big 3-Gun stage in the berms! $30. Shooter's briefing starting just after 0900 so we can get out shooting. Even 4 stages makes for a long day! Meet at the pistol berms to register on September 15!!!!

Benelli Chick Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) Last reminder! Practice for FNH or Fallen Brethren or what have you! Last Johnson 3-Gun for 2012: Saturday, September 15 at the Whittington Center in Raton, NM. JJ will be setting up stages on Friday, Sept 14. We are having 4 RM3G type stages this match all over the range. The plan is: Stage 5 (3-Gun) from RM3G over in YHEC, a shotgun/long rifle stage across from competitor's housing, a 3 Star 3-Gun stage in the berms and a rifle/pistol stage in Mule Canyon. Most of the set-up will be finished on Friday, but people who come to finish setting up before 0800 will get a small discount. Anyone who makes it down and helps JJ set up on friday will get a bigger discount! But, we will need to tear down all 4 on Saturday! You will need a rifle sling, about 125 of each - birdshot, pistol, rifle and 10 or so slugs. Shooter's Briefing starts about 0915. We want to get shooting as soon as we can! Newbie briefing 0845. Sign-up starts at 0830!!! $30 Let us know if you plan to join us. Denise Edited due to bad typing!

Benelli Chick Posted September 13, 2012 Author Share Posted September 13, 2012 I'm pretty sure there'll be sex and rock-n-roll at this match. No drugs! We don't shoot under the influence unless you count "rock star"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benelli Chick Posted September 13, 2012 Author Share Posted September 13, 2012 Okay! So, that didn't get things anymore interesting here... Was hoping for a bit of chit chat! I think that to be tactical, we will have high value misses on the CLOSE targets. I mean, in real life, if you miss them...well, it's not good! Those 400 yard away ones...less immediate danger. AND I think that if you hit the no-shoot in the A zone, it's only 5 seconds, but in the C or D, it'll be 10 seconds...more likely to sue you!! Thoughts?????

See you next spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benelli Chick Posted September 16, 2012 Author Share Posted September 16, 2012 Special thanks to Mike G, John and Colin who helped JJ set up on Friday! Really special thanks to Mike G for designing stage 4 and bringing some new 6 inch and 8 inch rifle plates and Rocky Mountain Targets new target - Rocky Mountain Thunder! It was a blast to shoot! Thanks to Brad for bringing a junior girl who's just getting started, John for bringing a new shooter and for Doc and Lance for joining us as new shooters as well! Thanks to Brad for having an extra bolt in his truck after one of those annoying .308's knocked it into kingdom come! Even though we only had 4 stages, if you just put 2 on paper and 1 on everything else, we shot 172 rounds today...well, I shot a few more than that!!! It was a long day and we appreciate all your work! One of our local guys wanted to practice with those little pesky poppers that are at a lot of the big matches back east, so we found 2 for him, and then he couldn't come. They went okay at 100 and you will see them again as they are good practice! That concludes Johnson 3-Gun at Rocky Mountain's 2012 season!!! Thanks to all of you who have been so supportive! We couldn't do it without you! Our next match will be March 30,31, 2013. With an RO practice/clinic on the 30th!! See you shooting! Denise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
