mwx40x40 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Title pretty much says it all. Has a date and location been set for 2008 Georgia State USPSA Championship yet? May looks wide open considering other majors in A-6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proff Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 I hope I'm not letting a cat out of the bag but I was at Cherokee a couple of weeks ago and...........The GA section coordinator and Atlanta area club leaders had a meeting after the match to address the previous post's question. I don't know what the heck they decided on I left after I got finished shooting. I did however ask a highly reliable source "the question" and the inference was that Riverbend Gun Club will do the honors in 2008. No clue about when though. I'm guessing mid-June. Probably wrong but that's my guess. Another guess--definitive info will soon be forthcoming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaG Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Action Pistol Notice to all Competitors! As a reminder, +P ammunition and hollow-point ammunition can no longer be used at Action Pistol events at RBGC. Ammunition should be standard velocity and lead, jacketed, or plated bullets only. This was copied from the Riverbend website. Does this still apply to open shooters with 125 JHP's during the GA State match? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA The action pistol part on RBGC's website is not the USPSA action pistol. It is a club run match. As far as I know and have been doing since RBGC started USPSA matches......I have been shooting 125 and 147 jhps. I would disregard that rule for USPSA as all of us have already been doing.

Competitors Sat./Sun) Roger, Where is Riverbend Gun Club? Thanks, Up close to Dawsonville. It is absolutely beautiful up there especially in October. Look at it this way, you pay a fee to shoot the match and get to take the wife and kids to the see the fall colors for free! I would also advise everyone of the wisdom of an early lodging reservation. Charles Bond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uscbigdawg Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Sooooo....when in October? Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexor40cal Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 We are hoping it will be the last weekend in October, the match will be run by Mark Leeber and myself Peter Oliver, our normally monthly match is the 4th Saturday, so we are hoping for the same weekend. The JHP issue is only for the Action Pistoleers, no such RBGC rule, just to that disipline. We currently use the Cowboy bays (11 in total) but may have the tactical range open by then we will see. It will be standard format, Friday RO's & select few shooters, then 1/2 day Sat/Sun or all Sat or Sun. Mark is just awaiting fianl approval from the board at RBGC. but as it is out and on here I thought I would chime in. Peter Oliver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Conley Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 So that would be Oct 24-26 right. Chris C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mleeber Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Good Afternoon and Merry Christmas! Indeed, RBGC Practical Shoters is planning on hosting the 2008 Georgia State match at River Bend Gun Club. River Bend is in Dawson county on about 400 acres of rolling hills; October is perfect in that neck of the woods! I am waiting on the Board of Directors of the club to give me a final OK on one issue. I expect to have an answer mid-January at which point everything will become "official". We do have a contingency plan that I do not think we will need to use. The tentative plan now is for ROs and a limited number of shooters to shoot Friday the 24th and the rest of the folks to shoot Saturday and Sunday in half day formats. At this point that is about all I can tell you as the rest is still undecided. We will have a web page up with local hotels and restaurants as well as all the other details once everything is set. Thanks! Mark Leeber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlockSpeed31 Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Mark and Peter, It would be nice to be able to shoot the match in one long day. For some of us, who's work schedules don't allow 2 days off in a row. Would that be an option for some? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscbigdawg Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 I'm with GSP31 in a way. My ideal would be to shoot all day on Saturday and then RO all day on Sunday (or vice versa), but at a minimum I'll be shooting the match as a regular competitor.

For some of us, who's work schedules don't allow 2 days off in a row. Would that be an option for some? Thanks, I think thats what they mean. You shoot all the stages in half a day. Either Sat. morning or Sat. afternoon or Sun morning. Thats the way it was this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGentry Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Just a thought - the Gator Classic is at the end of October - not far from you guys and I saw some great people from Georgia there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwx40x40 Posted January 9, 2008 Author Share Posted January 9, 2008 So that would be Oct 24-26 right. Chris C. So.... Is Oct 24-26 correct , or are we still waiting on confirmation from USPSA? Also has date been set for the GATOR CLASSIC? I would like to make both of these Major Southern Matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mleeber Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Yes, the proposed dates are the 24-26th. I will know for sure by the 16th of this month. Stay tuned...

KGentry Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) I don't understand why they would schedule it on the same dates as the Gator Classic was last year. I am sure they must know the dates will be similar this year? I wanted to shoot both matches but if it is on the same dates then get the RV out we goin to luuuusiana Edited January 9, 2008 by KGentry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boz1911 Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Just a note, that may be opening weekend for rifle season, be a tough choice for those of us that like to hunt also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
