joelogic Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Does anyone use a laser in Open, since anything goes? Seems like it would be helpful for the zipline. But since it is so bright out a green laser might not even help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeke013 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I can't see the benefit of a laser. Too bright out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R-Bros_JLR Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 So Federal Tactical(low recoil) buckshot is out for the spinners? I just like the way it patterns. Certainly not a hard hitter. Looks like the man says #6 is max shot size, so in my best Asian accent...................no buckshot fo you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesY Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Stages look great... So does squad 1 start at stage 1, squad 2 start at stage 2, ...etc. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TVpresspass Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Oh man oh man oh man. We get to roll a spool?!? These stage layouts are stellar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgibson Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 more notes: Squad one starts on stage one, squad 2 on stage 2, and so on and so forth. shoot two stages before lunch and two stages after lunch every day. Stage 4a and 4b count as one stage. shooters meeting at 6:30 the first day of both matches. registration is from 6-8 at the range the day before the match starts. if you want to register the morning of the match, bring an additional $20, a vanilla mocha latte monster, and a box of chocolate...and not the cheap a$$ chocolate either...the good stuff. I don't know if they're going to have breakfast at the range or not. there'll be lunch, but I'm not sure on the price yet. I'm thinking $8/day, but i'm waiting to hear from T&E on this. This is all I can think of for now. if you've got more questions, send them over. I'll be headed to the range next Thursday and you won't see or hear from me until you get here. Thx. adios, tg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Anderson Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Will we need slings again, if so for what guns? Do you have a link to the squadding? Can't find it any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd bring one for your pistol and long range gun...what the heck. Bring one for everything just to be safe. I don't THINK we'll need one for the SG, but I'm not 100% sure. adios, tg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

openclassterror Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 You have no idea!!!!!! I haven't even fired a shot through my LR308, and THAT is supposed to be my go-to gun on the stuff that is waaaaayyy out there. I'm screwed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TVpresspass Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I hear ya guys. Crossing the border means I've got to have all my ATF t's crossed and i's dotted. It's a good thing I've been prepping things since January! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lange22250 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Just finished laying out my match ammo and putting it away in the new smaller trooper stash can. Looks like I only need to carry a days worth of ammo to start. What am i doing wrong? Usually it's the first two days to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinistralRifleman Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 (edited) Just finished laying out my match ammo and putting it away in the new smaller trooper stash can. Looks like I only need to carry a days worth of ammo to start. What am i doing wrong? Usually it's the first two days to start. Round count has consistently decreased for the past few years, it's more manageable than it used to be; hence the smaller can size.

jid2 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Will there be a bay open to check zeros like there was last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openclassterror Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Not really clear from the website- Is it acceptable to use a muzzle down cart to transport your guns around? I usually man-pack local matches, but with the .308 for the bonus stages I fear I will wimp out carrying all four guns and ammo with big stages like these.
