triromad Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Let me start by saying that I am not an expert at running competitions. I have shot a few, but that is about all. I have been tasked to run my unit shoot. I am trying to come up with a decent design and would like some help. Below is what I am working with. Weapon M9 Beretta M4 Carbine Range is a 25 meter flat range that we can move lateral or forward. There are no berms on the side so all round have to be fired straight forward. Would like to fire from static positions with multiple reloads. I can break up the weapons or use them together. Would like to add some stress prior to event start to get heart rate up. Thank you for any help. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoganbillJ Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 What is the intended rd count? What targets are available? Are you wanting a forced reload due to number of targets or just a mandatory reload at designated locations? For heart rate have them carry some full ammo cans down and around a cone. Have them do 5-10 8 count body builders. They are lots of options to increase heart rate prior or during the course of fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkCO Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 You could do a bump drill with both weapons. Go to the 2nd entry to see it here: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Element-Multi-Gun/504559829685716 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogtired Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) I am no pro but I usually can design a decent stage. With the confines that you describe, I would set up the rifle shots on the diagonal to stretch out the distance. First shots would be the longest. As the shooter closes on those targets, other targets would present on tangents. Cover and obstacles would add difficulty. Zig zag thru a short range to make it larger. Transition to the pistol could occur quickly or after most of the range is covered. You could even have the shooter back out and engage the rifle targets a second time. I just reread the range description and side berms are helpful. Edited June 25, 2015 by dogtired Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbultman Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Get your heart rate up? At the buzzer run down the range 25yards. Shoot pistol targets working backwards up the range. Switch to rifle and either shoot down range prone or work back down range with rifle. Talk about a work out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSComp Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 there are a lot of resources out there if you would do a google search for uspsa stage design and other variations of such. that's what I did/do when nothing comes to mind or I want to break it up a little Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
