Zak Smith Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 (edited) I am proud to announce a new organization, Colorado Multigun, and an exciting match for 2006. Many details are still fluid at this time, but the major match parameters are set. Colorado Multigun was formed to promote world-class multigun skills through clinics, training, and competition. The Practical Rifle Team Challenge is designed to test a 2-man team's skills shooting rifle, carbine, and pistol to their effective ranges at practical targets in the natural terrain using what gear they can carry. Shooters should expect: * 8 field stages shot in the natural terrain over 3 days, including 2 night shoots (night vision gear not required) * physical challenges, obstacle negotiation, climbing, crawling, water * movement up to 2 miles * local altitude of 6700' * to carry gear used during the courses of fire * shooting rifles to 1000 yards and carbines to 500 yards * mixture of "precision" and "speed" shooting with scoring to match * "Run-n-Gun" Teams can use any ancillary equipment as long as such equipment is carried during every stage. (See Rules for details.) Cost of entry is $300 per team ($150 per person). Entry forms will be available on the web-site 17 FEB 2006 (ie, the Friday after the SHOT show). For general questions, you can reply to this thread or email PRTC@ColoradoMultigun.com Potential sponsors should contact PRTCsponsors@ColoradoMultigun.com The rest of the details are available on the match web-site: http://ColoradoMultigun.com/prtc Edited January 10, 2006 by Zak Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

01 Z06 Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Do you have to carry all 3 guns and all the ammo and accessories with you at all times from stage to stage? like the super trooper class? Do you have a set of rules anywhere? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not just like a "super trooper" class. Edited January 14, 2006 by Zak Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinistralRifleman Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Are pack animals allowed? If we brought Jesse would he count as a pack animal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak Smith Posted January 14, 2006 Author Share Posted January 14, 2006 (edited) A pack animal would count as a "shooting accessory" and would have to be "carried by the team during every stage." And they would have to wear eyes and ears. Edited January 14, 2006 by Zak Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronco Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Zak, what can we expect as far as the size of the targets at any given range. I shot the sportsman hunting match once and those 1 moa targets suck. Can we expect at least 3 moa to shoot at? Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dunn Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 3 MOA? Blasphemy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak Smith Posted January 15, 2006 Author Share Posted January 15, 2006 We will probably give more guidance on target sizes in the future, but you should expect a variety of target sizes, including LESS THAN 3MOA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronco Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I can live with 2 moa but if this is going to be a fly speck shoot I'd like to know before hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VNGunfighter Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I can live with 2 moa but if this is going to be a fly speck shoot I'd like to know before hand. Keith, Just to let you know flys @ 100,200 are sub-minute-And we WILL NOT be shooting on established SQUARE ranges EXCEPT for the two night stages-See you there-VNG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak Smith Posted January 16, 2006 Author Share Posted January 16, 2006 (edited) I hope from reading the intro post that one wouldn't get the impression that this is a BR or "fly speck" shoot! We also intend that a military-issue-style 308 caliber bolt action rifle system will be capable of shooting all rifle targets. Expect a variety of target sizes.

benelli2 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Not sure the Benelli will fit in but I'm coming to play anyway. Anyone got the 5oo yard dope on a reduced recoil slug? How about some good data for a 75 grn 223 out of a 20" gun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronco Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Jeff, if your shooting the AR who gets the bolt gun? 75 gr hpbt @ 2750 fps. with 200 yd. zero has a 2.58 mil hold over @ 500yd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak Smith Posted January 17, 2006 Author Share Posted January 17, 2006 New info: * varied target size: rifle targets between 1" - 18", generally no smaller than 1 MOA at a distance.

kurtm Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 BenelliII: If you don't have a partner let me know!! I have a good precision rifle and ALL the dope on slugs to 500yds. If you have a scope that stays zeroed for your carbine we might be a force to be reconed with!! KURTM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
