The stages look great. The shooters look... well, y'all know what they look like. I'm really jazzed for this match. Now to get a good night's sleep and in the morning...

Its gonna be fun we shoot six stages tomorrow starting at 8.00 Our squad is the best!!! but we will miss Merlin and Larry. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJPoLo Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 May as well ask........any idea what the max range for slug targets are??? Farthest slug taget (a full-size Pepper Popper) is 36 paces. -Chet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakal Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Looks like a pretty fun pistol match with one serious rifle stage Lots of low ports and "...now run to the far end of the shooting box and shoot left then right (or right then left) around the "Y" at the end" stuff. Lots of "...it picks up the shotgun and it shoots the six targets, then it puts down the shotgun and it picks up the pistol and it shoots six targets..." too. No props. No decorations or embellishments of any kind. Very little shotgun reloading. Heck, very little reloading except for the (shudder) wheelgunners. Like Gentleman Jim said, this seems to be set for lots of uberfast close range hosing. Interesting choice. The range is very nice! Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farthest slug taget (a full-size Pepper Popper) is 36 paces. -Chet min distance for slugs on steel is like 40, i think. 40 metres in fact, so 43.74 yards. This for shots behind a physical barrier or 45 metres 49.2 yards if behind only a Charge Line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STInky Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 (edited) Well.....all I can say is that long-range rifle stage is a MO-FO !!!!!!! I've got one question.......When we looked at the stage on Thursday, the steel flash targets were at 276 yds......and that is the distance that RO's and a few others shot them at. When we got to the range this morning, the steel was moved out to 326 yds....(read 50 yds farther !!) because rounds were skipping out of the range. Is it just me or is that an unfair advantage for the folks that got to shoot it early ??? Fifty yards is 50 yds..... That's all I got to say about that.

GentlemanJim Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Well.....all I can say is that long-range rifle stage is a MO-FO !!!!!!! That's all I got to say about that. So far the long range stage has been my best ...79 seconds one mike However on one pistol stage my mag fell out.........TWICE!!!! And to add injury to insult.....my remington decided this was the time for the extractor to fail...three double feeds on top of stuck empties. And of course Benny and the Benelli peanut gallery went wild Nanci had one mike on the long range rifle...and is doing well she whooped the crap outta me on the two stages i messed up Wee shal see what tomorrow brings Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
