Doug H. Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Thanks for the offers. I'm using Flightcontrol in my Saiga and I have plenty to bring just don't want to have to carry more than necessary. RW is bringing plenty of shot and slugs for me only question was buck. I'll just bring 50 or 60 and borrow some if I need extra. I learned a long time ago to only shoot proven loads in the Saiga which is why mine always runs. Doug Did you notice that you typed "Saiga" and "always runs" in the same sentence? I guess you haven't seen me shoot before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug H. Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I'll admit using the Saiga has been a journey, I started with one of R&Rs original prototype guns that was shown at the 2009 Shot Show and now shoot a newer one. When I got my first one I had to have Scotty (Busyhawk) show me how to take it apart. Springs, puck, port settings, temperature sensitivity, magazines and ammo have been tweaked, massaged and assessed. At this point my competition Saiga is as reliable as any shotgun I have seen in competition. My back up Saiga has been used several times by non Saiga shooters to complete matches because their (insert brand here) crapped out. It's never a good idea to get cocky, just ask the Mayor, but as long as I take care of my Saiga it takes care of me. Now if I could just eliminate the mental errors I might finish near the top.

graysonp Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) Gamaliel Shooting Supply is just down the road too. Grayson and Gibson for Gamaliel have been shooting our local 3 gun matches at the Rock. Anyone needing ammo may want to give them a call and see if they plan on coming to this match. Thanks Bryan. We've had a lot of people call and ask if we're coming, so we're going to make plans to be there. We will have ammo on the truck available to sell (Rio, Nobel Sport, Winchester AA, Remington STS and maybe some Federal Gold Medal). We will also have slugs, buckshot, shotgun accessories, cleaning supplies, etc. You can browse our website (www.gamaliel.com) to see what loads are in stock for each brand. Keep in mind that Winchester just launched their AA rebate again, so all AA ammo qualifies for a $20/case mail-in rebate (limit $100 rebate per household). If anyone wants to preorder any ammo before the shoot, call us at 800-356-6230 or email me directly at: grayson.pare@Gamaliel.com. Thanks, Grayson Gamaliel Shooting Supply Update: We are also going to have a lot of primers available.

Hunter413 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Is this a limited capacity gun match? Bruce No- but for us it is a limited ability match. 6.2 Standard Division 6.1.1 Capacity restrictions: a maximum of 9 rounds can be in the gun at the start of a stage. After the start signal there are no capacity restrictions.The man with all the answers! Loving this since I just got my new VMAX from Crucible Armament and it has the new couplers from Nordic Components!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple of circus stages (swinging bridge, standing on rocks , standing on bucket). Tons of procedurals-do this or incur penalty.

Petshopshooter Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Stage descriptions are already on that site. Stage 5 must be confusing/challenging because we get to shoot it twice and use the best time, interesting. Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
