1b375 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Max slug will be around 75 yards or so. Buckshot will around 30 yards. That could change when the stages are set up. There will be a by stage round count put out around the second week of March. Got some great sponsors and more are coming on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RH45 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) Back when I first heard about this match, I looked at round count from last year, and scrambled around, figuring I'd need at least 75 slugs, and buck. I knew my guns ran Remington, managed recoil, but, couldn't lay my hands on any, but, after reading reviews on B&P, I found a case of those slugs, and they seem just as accurate as the Remingtons, and run in my M2, Benelli, I'm shooting open, and they don't have enough gas to run either of my open shotguns. Then, I managed to find a case of both slugs, and buck, in Remington, so I SHOULD have a bunch of extra with me that I could sell, if somebody is short. I could also bring along some full-power, Federal Truball. If Rockcastle has ammo available for sale, I WON'T have any for sale. I don't want to step on anybody's toes, but, I don't really remember anything for sale at their 3-gun match. I will be one of the R.O.s I hope the weather is decent!!

We drew up the final stages on site today. 312 birdshot 12 slugs 8 buckshot We upped the bird a little and dropped the slug and buck down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

euxx Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I could not find this in the rules section. Could anyone confirm what will be the time adjustment for misses? Is it going to be fixed per stage or based on target distance? And what are the penalty for not engaging some target? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

euxx Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 (edited) gaming already? Just gotta know the rules and plan how much time will I have to shoot that steel at 70y. Edited March 28, 2013 by euxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonedrone Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 gaming already? Just gotta know the rules and plan how much time will I have to shoot that steel at 70y. Last year all penalties were fixed time - there was no adjustment for distance/etc. I obviously can't say for certain about this year as I'm not involved in the match setup, but I would suspect things to be the same. lonedrone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T Bacus Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 70 yards? No problem! We have a match director here in VA that likes to throw slug targets out around 90-115 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
