PPGMD Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Another thing that can be done if the matches are getting overcrowded, is add an afternoon session. Morning session sets up, and is out of there by 12-1pm. Afternoon session starts at 1pm, and tears down around 5pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FearsomeCritter Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I'd be all for an afternoon session anyway on account of me being super lazy and sleeping in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkm Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Yes, those who do the work should absolutely stay there all day to accommodate for people who don't want to get up early.. Or not.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or not.. Well if a club was going to split it there are more options than having the same crew work all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motosapiens Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Yes, those who do the work should absolutely stay there all day to accommodate for people who don't want to get up early.. Or not.. wait, what? the common sense way would be to have a 2nd MD to hand off the scoring stuff to, and the afternoon group puts everything away and tidies up. This assumes that you're just pulling RO's from each squad, and not trying to have static RO's. It looks like we are going to split up the MD duties for our weeknight steel matches in order to set up earlier without having 1 guy be stuck there excessively long.

I guess it all depends on what part of the country you are in. Here in the Denver area I think we almost have too many options and the number of folks who are willing to put in the work and pound the stakes are becoming few and far between. We are lucky enough to have two and sometimes three matches a weekend within about an hour or two but it ends up being the same folks doing all the work.

Sarge Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Looks like some thought went into it. Who had a pic somewhere of a sleeve attached to their cart? More or less an AR holster is what it looked like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shooterready Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Would love to see 300 BLK subsonic allowed. Only if you provide the steel targets 300 BLK at sub speeds are just pistol rounds. Shoot steels all the time with no ill effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shooterready Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) Instead of capping the MV at 1600 fps, I would just cap the PF and then allow any carbine to play. 230k PF max will keep the steels safe from harm. Edited to add, also capping MV will rule out any high velocity low grain weight rounds. Therefore 1600fps then still would be a good idea.

I love suppressors but I agree there isn't a place for them here. Unsuppressed .22 rimfires are tough enough with some timers.

Just being realistic, no chrono at locals. I understand subsonic, but I also predict people showing up at locals with rifle rounds that may or may not be subsonic, just like people shooting ammo they claim makes PF and doesn't , of course this would be a disadvantage in the 300 situation, but people have been known to fubar stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have people waiting in line to volunteer to be MDs around here and I for one have a long enough day as it is as a MD without adding a 2nd 'go' to the day ....however with more volunteers there are always lots of creative things that can be done to ease over crowding ...

The speed does not make it a rifle or a pistol caliber. I agree for simplicity sake lets keep it pistol caliber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forrest Halley Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I realize this thread is primarily about semi-auto carbines. Would USPSA entertain the thought of lever action carbines too? If so would they be a separate division within PCC? I have a Browning 1892 in .357 and its a lot of fun to shoot. Might attract the cowboy shooters too. This WILL slow up the match though. I'd still try it with the Browning. FYI....Might be time to dust off the Thureon Defense .45 I have.Cowboy shooters may have a hard time making minor Dream on, they have 16" of barrel to use. Thanks for the well thought out statement. I don't have to push a .38 or .45 hard to make minor. I can also knock down steel that 9mm can't. The reloading time for some will be slower, but with some shooters having a preshoot routine bordering on delay of game/"I'm aging in place here" we can afford to hang out for a bit so someone can reload and finish the stage. It doesn't take long at all. I'd like to see the caliber list expanded to include the traditional pistol calibers that aren't box magazine fed. Not everyone wants to run an AR. I'd run my lever gun just to be different. I think it'd be funny to see the disbelief on the faces of the peanut gallery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
