SinistralRifleman Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 (edited) Last year's match for those who missed it: http://www.cavalryarms.com/3gun/vids/CAV3GMV.wmv The website has been updated with all the info for the 2006 Match: http://www.cavalryarms.com/3gun/3gun.html Changes in the rules for this year: Tactical Iron and Tactical Scope shooters may load 9 rounds in their shotguns to start. Shooters may load more shells once the course of fire has begun. All stages will be “freestyle,” shooters will be able to engage the targets with firearms of their choosing with the following limitations: Paper Targets: Rifle, Pistol, or shotgun slug Steel Targets less than 100 yards away: Pistol and Shotgun Shot Steel Targets greater than 100 yards away: Rifle, Pistol, and Shotgun Slug Clays: Shotgun Shot Paper targets only require one shotgun slug hit anywhere to neutralize. Applications here: http://www.cavalryarms.com/3gun/3gunapplication.html Some sponsors are specifically donating prizes to Trooper Class, it will be worth your time to shoot. We need ROs/Range Staff. They will shoot for free and be eligable for additional prizes. There will be a 600-1000 yard sniper rifle side match on Sunday time permitting.

SinistralRifleman Posted March 23, 2006 Author Share Posted March 23, 2006 (edited) Trijicon is already on board sponsoring the match with 2 1.25-4x Accupoints! We have decided on the following further rule revisions for 2006 1.4.3 All long guns must have slings, some courses of fire require the use of a sling for transitioning. 1.5.4 The Cavalry Arms 3 Gun Match Allows for Hot Handguns during the course of fire. A shooter may transition either to engage targets approved for the type of firearm they wish to switch to, or because their long gun became inoperable and they are transitioning to sidearm. All slung long guns must have detachable magazines removed, tubes/internal feeding devices empty, and the chamber must be empty (safety does not need to be on). Failure to clear slung long guns will result in match DQ. The shooter is not responsible for the 180 with slung empty long guns, so long as the muzzle is pointed generally up or down. ROs will stop shooters who sling long guns without clearing them. 6.1.1 Any cardboard target, designated as a "shoot" target must meet one of the following conditions to be considered neutralized. The bullet hole must be inside of or break the edge of the perforation for the scoring zone to count. Handgun and Intermediate Rifle Cartridges 1 Head Shot* 1 A Zone 2 Hits anywhere Battle Rifle Cartridges ( .308, .30-06, 7.62x54R, 8mm Mauser ) 1 Head Shot* 1 A or C Zone 2 Hits anywhere Shotgun Slug 1 Hit anywhere *Headhsot is defined as breaking the neck perforation or higher 6.1.3 Paper targets used in the match will be USPSA Targets. Targets to be engaged will have weapons or other visible features displayed so that the shooter will assess them as a threat (unless specifically noted otherwise in stage description). 6.1.4 “No Shoot” Targets will have no weapons displayed on them (unless specifically noted otherwise in stage description). Designated "No Shoot" targets that are hit will incur a 25 second penalty, regardless of the number of hits.

Authentic clothing not required, but mag pouches etc would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakal Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 That sounds entertaining! I'd want to shoot modern gear (too), but running a stage or two with one of my Garands, my 1897 Trench Gun, and my vintage 1911A1 would be great fun Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscbigdawg Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 So color me tickled. I finish the Flight Medic Course (hopefully) on September 15th. I'll be in Alabama and it can't be that much of a headache to get to Waco a week later. Looks like I'm "packin'" to Fort Rucker. Maybe anyways. Going to have to do some major strategery now.

SinistralRifleman Posted April 29, 2006 Author Share Posted April 29, 2006 We're planning on having 2 night stages this year, one dark house and one 100 yard rifle (lights may or may not help you on that one) There will be one moving vehicle stage More zombie head shot action More weak hand only shooting, even using your shotgun if you want. Return of the dreaded 300 yard 60 rounds in 2 minutes stage...the past 2 years this stage alone has changed the outcome of the match., so know your hold over at 300.

CWG.223 Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Is there and estimated round count yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinistralRifleman Posted June 17, 2006 Author Share Posted June 17, 2006 Is there and estimated round count yet? 300 Rifle, 300 Pistol, and 100 shotgun should get you through the match. I cannot tell you exactly how many rounds are required because it will be up to you to decide what you use on the vast majority of the targets. Some people may shoot more shotgun than pistol, or more pistol than rifle...on a stage with steel, clays, and paper targets you could theoretically shoot it all with your shotgun (shot and slugs) You will need at least 60 rifle rounds for the Long Range stage. There will be approximately 100 paper targets, 100 steel targets, and 100 or less clays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinistralRifleman Posted July 5, 2006 Author Share Posted July 5, 2006 The match is just over 2 months away. We only have 13 people signed up so far. At this point last year we had over twice as many signed up. If we don't have 50 people signed up by the end of July, we will be cancelling the match and giving everyone their money back. If we cancel this match, we may hold another at a different location/time that will be more appealing to more shooters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wakal Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 By the way, you scheduled your match for the same weekend as the Texas State Limited. All the (Stateside) San Angelo folks are perennially conscripted...err...voluntold...err...working that match and can't make it to yours, no matter how much they would like to. That is somewhere between five and eight guys right there. Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
