openclassterror Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Very generous sponsors! Many thanks to Doug and Scott for beating the bushes to scare up such a nice assortment of stuff. Last year I had the worst gear meltdown of my career and finished near the bottom- still walked away from the prize table with a smile. Can't wait to see you all there, My son and I will be ROing stage 7 again, with Rob, Albert, and Jason. GREAT crew, looking forward to renewing old friendships and making more!

Stlhead Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Chuck, I dare you to shoot limited. All the cool kids are doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeke013 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 350?!? Yikes. Seems like the longest shot was shorter last year. This won't go well as my first year shooting limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openclassterror Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) Last year longest was 360 from the spool. On the stage with all the aerial clays. I know because I threw half a mag at it before hitting par time, and then lasered it because I couldn't believe it was that far. Distance is deceiving in the desert! However, I watched a couple limited guys with irons go one-for-one on the long stuff in the morning before the wind kicked up. I think aperture sights with a long-radius front sight block are significantly more effective at distance than the eotech type sights, based on watching hits and misses. Either that or the iron sight operators practice a great deal more. I would estimate 50% less attempts per hit on the stage I RO'd last year, irons versus red dots.

Doug H. Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 The majority of the rifle shots will not exceed 250. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BD Williamson Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 This is one of my favorite matches that I go to in the country. The use of all 3 guns on every stage is a real challenge! Scott and Doug you do a great job with the match! Plus get I to be in Bend that has over 17 Breweries and hang out with my best friends. What could be better!

Before you cancel your registration, keep in mind there are only a couple long targets per stage, and even those are mostly closer than farther. I would definitely give the Eotech the advantage call on the close targets. Dots are fast. Big dots are not precise. I am not insinuating that the Irons guys BEAT the Eotech guys, just that they had better hits at the long bombs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NMBOpen Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Is there a legend to describe the target symbols used in the stage diagrams? Some are not self-evident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug H. Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Which is unclear? Let me know and I will clarify. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Anderson Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Couldn't tell on the spinners, pistol, shotgun, both, or shooters choice. Will you have any restrictions on shot size or velocity on them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug H. Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 The spinner on 7 is shotgun only and the one on 9 is pistol only. Shot size is limited to #6 per our rules. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug H. Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 (edited) But #6 Prairie Storm is cool? Thanks for reminding me Chuck, I just changed the rules to prohibit birdshot loads exceeding 3 3/4 drams equivalent. If prohibited ammo is used it is a match DQ and if there is damage to the target there will also be a $100 fine. This still leaves room for some fairly heavy loads, like many Upland bird loads, but rules out Prairie Storm which has 4.46 DE. So the largest shot that can be used on the shotgun spinner is #6 birdshot up to 3 3/4 DE. Doug Rules: http://nwmultigun.com/uploads/NWMG_RULES_ver_6-28-14_b.pdf Edited June 28, 2014 by Doug H.
