rmfield Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 The new Rocky Mountain 3-Gun website is now up and you can access the match application, rules, etc. there. RM3G Website (www.rm3g.com) Thank-you to those who gave us input on the He-Man shotgun question. Our rules now reflect a "pump action only" requirement for He-Man shotgun. We will also be allowing .45 GAP in He-Man this year. There are a few other minor rule changes that you might want to check out. The match will be limited to 200 competitors, including sponsors.

Religious Shooter Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 I don't see any info on the precision rifle match in terms of rules and it doesn't mention it on the match application. Is the side-match free? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmfield Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 The precision rifle stage will probably be run with similar rules and format as in 2004, however, we have not finalized this yet. We will update our website with this information in the future. Last year we had two classes - bolt action and semi auto. The cartridge minimun was .243 Win and the upper end was 300 Win Mag. We also used a 3,200 fps maximum on the muzzle velocity to protect our steel. The match had two strings of fire - an action string that involved engagement of targets from several positions and a precision string that involved no movement and some smaller targets. Targets ranged out to about 700 yards. Entry was $20 and there was a cash payback to the top three shooters. The format for the 2005 precision rifle side-match may vary depending on the terrain that we select. That is something we will do when the weather is a lot warmer. Last year the precision side-match was open every day of the match, but we only had 20 some shooters. Therefore, we will probably reduce the time allowed for this to one day. Sorry to be a little vague, but that's all we know for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Religious Shooter Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 Don't mean to be a DRL. But IMHO... this is badly worded. 7.1.6 The competitor may not abandon any equipment during the course of fire except detachable magazines, speed loaders or ammunition clips. What does this truly mean? The way I'm reading it is that you can't abandon your firearm. A firearm is a piece of "equipment". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmfield Posted May 24, 2005 Author Share Posted May 24, 2005 The IMGA rules are broken up into various sections. Firearms are not included in the Holsters and Equipment section. Thus, in the context of the IMGA rules, firearms are not really "equipment". By example, this part of our rules would disallow from an Open shooter from abandoning an allowed rifle supporting devise during the course of fire.
