Shooting guns is fun?

We haven't negotiated a match hotel. A lot of hotels in Lenexa, Olathe and Overland Park that are 15 to 20 minutes from the range. Only closer hotels are a few small hotels in Desoto.

If you're looking for more attractions, the Legends entertainment district near Cabelas, amusement parks, and race track has a number of hotels and is about 25 minutes away.

Looking forward to this weekend! Looks like some interesting stages.

But I don't know how in the world "Bombs Away" was approved by NROI.  I see this being a HUGE headache. The note at the bottom states, the RO's will have to adjust the ramp so that slower shooters can get to the port?!?  That means I'm at the mercy of the RO to set it to the speed I need...

I would seriously encourage the range master to re-evalute that part of the stage briefing. It's essentially the same as slowing a swinger for certain shooters because they ask for it.

From my limited knowledge, here's the first thing I was able to find:

1. 4.5.2  The competitor may request that Match Officials take corrective actions to ensure consistency in respect of the range surface, the

presentation of targets and/or any other matter. The Range Master will have final authority concerning all such requests.
