MiniUzi Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 How many days should we expect to shoot? I know last year we did it all in one day and it was a loooooong day. Will the stages be spread over a couple days or what exactly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlamoShooter Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) I read most of the post in this thread and looked at the match web page. So I hope this has not been gone over . Will this be like Blue Ridge and require slings for the shotgun and rifle ? I have it on good authority that Vortex Optics will be on the sponsors list soon Edited May 9, 2013 by AlamoShooter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stein Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Anything interesting to do in the Blakely area to fill any down time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sono Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 A few miles from the range are the Kolomoki Indian mounds. I probably misspelled it. It's kinda cool to see the history. It's a state park and usually well kept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFH Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 Hi Folks, For everyone's information and for clarification: Any bullet that is attracted by a magnet is NOT allowed at the match. This includes ammo with bi-metal jackets. The match is getting close, and everything is coming together well. Jamie -- glad your going to be there!! The plan is for everyone to shoot 4 stages on Friday and Saturday with 1 stage on Sunday morning. Shooting begins at 7:15 each morning. (Further clarification: this means you are standing on the stage with your gear ready -- not just driving up to the stage!!!!) Squad lists will be posted at AIM/Legion during registration. Hopefully, the awards will kick off around 12:30 on Sunday. Shooters meeting will be Thursday evening at 6:30 near the registration area at AIM.

Will this be like Blue Ridge and require slings for the shotgun and rifle ? I have it on good authority that Vortex Optics will be on the sponsors list soon I found that there are two stages that start with a slung shotgun a most of the rest start with slung rifle. Its down in the stage descriptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thazlett Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Anything interesting to do in the Blakely area to fill any down time? Kolomoki Mounds State Park is interesting and is literally a stones throw from the AIM/Legion facility. It doesn't take too long to go through either. We used to take my sons Boy Scout troop there for weekend camp outs when we lived in the area but that was many years ago. Otherwise, for interesting I'd say watching peanuts and cotton grow would about cover it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlamoShooter Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 (edited) The hotels in Blakeley seam to be booked, what town is the next closest to the range. And how about a map to the range ? or am I to blind to see ? plenty of hotels in Dothan found it on the map = 200 Sherman Road http://www.bing.com/maps/default.aspx?encType=1&where1=200+Sherman+Rd%2c+Blakely%2c+GA+39823%2c+United+States&cp=31.4378218352795~-84.8912809789181&qpvt=200+sherman+road+blakely+Ga&FORM=MIRE Edited May 25, 2013 by AlamoShooter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
