Maximis228 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Match was awesome. Still cant believe we shot 11 stages in 7 hours with a 1 hour lunch. Crazy efficient match after the rain out on Saturday afternoon. Cant wait to shoot next year and hopefully squeak by Chris and Cody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevymen21 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 (edited) It was an awesome match! Thanks to all the match staff and sponsors that help run the match, you made the 15 hour drive worth it. Special thanks to Ryan and Jim Stinar with SNS Casting for all your support.

As the shooters saw that the s.o.'s were humping it they followed suit and made it happen, durn fast and efficient pasting and no waiting on somebody to get to the line or any of that stuff. Seemed like folks were having fun with how things were going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyler2you Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 I was amazed to see every single shooter pulling their weight with pasting on our stage the entire match. It was pretty awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OPENB Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 My wife's second major, but first one we travelled together to. Had a great dinner on 4th St. in Louisville on Fri., sightseeing the Chinese boat races at the Waterfront on Sat., dinner with a friend that evening, and 15 fun stages. On the way home she asked when we are doing it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Severian Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Loved this match. Fun stages. Loved all the long field courses. Great ROs. Very well-run match. I shot a half-way decent match, too. I'll be back next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colt22man Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 One by one The Indiana 400 stages are being disassembled & coming down. I want to thank everyone who was involved in setting up and worked the Indiana 400 match. Stage setup crew was John Seewer, Rich St. Clair, John Cambron, Rob Hill, Craig & Dave Benefiel, Dan Boone, Jeff McCauley, Bill DeZarn, Paul Francis, Jeff Jones and others whose name has slipped my mind. Pretty sure Mike Moser and Chase Harber helped one evening. Jake & Paul spent a lot of time proofing the stages and catching problem areas. Work that resulted in a smooth, problem free match. The Ro's did a magnificent job. The RO seminar held @ SCCC 2 weeks earlier was nearly entirely present and working the Indiana 400 match. The SNS Casting crew was especially gracious and I thank them for their match sponsorship. A special Thank You to Kevin Mayfield, who I showed how to be bumped from single stack to open division with one small paster. Kevin helped with stage setup, manufactured 80+ new metal vision barrier stands for our new vision barriers and smoked 27 pounds of pulled pork for Saturday's match lunch. Ron Buschmann of Shooters Supply & Law Enforcement Equipment provided RO prize table prizes. I want to thank Ron for his continued support of the Indiana 400 match and Silver Creek Conservation Club. Proceeds from the Indiana 400 match will help with our goal of making SCCC a premier shooting facility for our members and friends. A true team effort. Thank You to everyone involved.

I recall hearing this and if I remember correctly the rules don't support a bump to open. Rule 8.7.2 seems to cover the events as I recall them. 8.7.2 Competitors are prohibited from using any guns or gun replicas as sighting aids while conducting their inspection (“walkthrough”) of a course of fire. Violations will incur one procedural penalty per occurrence (also see Rule 10.5.1). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Violations will incur one procedural penalty per occurrence (also see Rule 10.5.1). A person put a paster on his magazine opening, it was determined to be an illegal modification to a production gun (aiming aid for reloads). Nothing was related to his walk through / inspection of the course of fire. I wasn't there when it happened but Kevin relayed the story to me directly, rather passionately .

I understood the bump to Open was related to the walkthrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colt22man Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Still haven't found the rule in the rule book. I was told appendix (d) or (e) #22 but I don't see the definition. Kevin was shooting single stack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not got the 'bump to open' rules figured out. I know you get there by various violations related to gun specs & holster specs & magazine carriage specs & etc. , but have not found the 'do this and you will get bumped' wording in black and white. I know a guy that teaches such things if someone on the forum does not come up with the answer. Edited September 18, 2016 by IHAVEGAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IHAVEGAS Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 (edited) https://www.uspsa.org/uspsa-NROI-ruling-details.php?indx=47 Found it. Am assuming the answer for single stack is the same as the answer given for production. Edited September 20, 2016 by IHAVEGAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
