pskys2 Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Use Steel Challenge type Steel (no resetting), give the RO a clicker and count the misses (or be sadistic and count the hits). Only 2 Gun Bearers per shooter, to pick up clips or mags and reload mags if needed (coaching would add a click to the misses, he! he!). Use a pouch of some kind for the extra ammo, and sling it around your neck. No Major/Minor and make it a Jungle Run. Sounds warped, but the "!WOW!" factor would make it a hit.

pskys2 Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 P.S. I may be a sick, twisted individual but I would definitely shoot my 625. Probably with Major loads. But then that's just me. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSeevers Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 I love it Now let me see a Beta Mag might fit the gauge and 100 + 1 would be a definite advantage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bufit323 Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Any chance we will have a rule bend and allow production guns to go full capacity? Then I could do it with the mag I have . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nik Habicht Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 And just to make it really evil --- every shooter gets to start with 101 rounds --- and 101 rounds only...... Everyone here knows how to hit, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AikiDale Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 East and West, that's cool! Everybody's happy. (Except the midwesterners.) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's their Lutheran upbringing, not allowed to be happy with anything. But I would be happy to shoot the East and West match!

AikiDale Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 East and West, that's cool! Everybody's happy. (Except the midwesterners.)I've been bouncing ideas off ong45. He poo-pooed Outer Limits as too hard. I'd love to hear your ideas. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's only a stage. You have nothing to fear but fear itself. Outer Limits is not too hard for BE Forum shooters. We can hit anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diehli Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 We talking Outer Limits the SC stage? Puhlease... hard? Not exactly... but hard to shoot without aiming (ala Smokin' Dope)? Yep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmaass Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 I like the idea of non-USPSA/IPSC courses of fire in the BE forum match. So let's take it to extremes: a 100-round freestyle field course that may or may not exactly be 8 round friendly. Plenty of harder and farther targets mixed in with the in-your-face hosers. Plenty of places to pre-place magazines or--gulp--moon clips.And yeah, I'm thinking of how to balance stage points. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Only three reloads for me (28 +1, 28, 28, 15) with 13 left over for extra shots!

chendersby Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 We did this in 1995 as the last match at a range that was closing. Actually it was a 99 round stage because this is all the scoring system will allow. Single stacks guys all pooled their mags and used a big pouch to carry them in. lots of malfinctions as tight open guns would overheat and sieze up. It was interesting but i do not feel the need to try it again. Oh what the hell, yes I would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin c Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 There was a 100 round field course done at Ione three or four years ago, I think. I drove out to Sac just to do it. Shooters were definitely gasping at the end - splits were, even for good shooters, up around the .3 range. And the hits at the end of the course were a whole lot worse than at the beginning, even though the targets were at about the same range, people were having that much trouble holding steady on the targets. And yes, there were a few burns from frying pan hot slides. There were two assistant RO's, if I remember right, who followed behind the CRO and the shooter, scoring as they went, so that only the last array was left to be scored when the shooter went to ULASC. It was kind of amusing, but not as much fun as it sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ong45 Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 300lbGorilla Posted Yesterday, 05:35 PM We talking Outer Limits the SC stage? Puhlease... hard? Not exactly... but hard to shoot without aiming (ala Smokin' Dope)? Yep. Hard for me i gotta try not to let my personal loathing for this stage show. I figured smoke and hope and 5 to go would be more appropriate to introduce people new to SC without sending them (mostly me again) into depression with outer limits or pendulum. James btw we did a 120+ round stage in reno 3 or so years ago, bring loctite!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azone41 Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 We always do a 50-60 round stage with our yearly classifier match. Percision 40 has set up the last two and they are a blast. Of course he does have a sick mind but not as sick as mine when it comes to stage design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgtsvi Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 you definitely would not want to have to do a bunch of reshoots on that stage after someone has made it halfway through the course. Sounds like fun though. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgtsvi Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 How about a stage that you shoot a gun from every division. Start with a fully loaded open gun and then go Limited, L10, Production, and finish up with a revolver. Shoot every gun dry and ground it at a table before picking up the next gun and continuing on the course. That might be fun to see how you do with different guns on one course.

SRT Driver Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Not too big but they'd get big after a couple weeks of dry fire. I'd bet draw times and transitions would be slow though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
