mhearn Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Cindy Thanks for the schedule. Always a pleasure to shoot at South River. Look forward to seeing you Friday night at registration. Good luck with the final details on setting up the match. I appreciate you hosting the event. Great looking stages. Definitely worth finding the firearms.

Charles Bond Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Just got off the phone this evening with one of our shooters from Texas who, like many others, is excited about the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan 45 Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 The range isn't under water, is it? I'm assuming two weeks is long enough for everything to dry out???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgnoyes Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 The range isn't under water, is it? I'm assuming two weeks is long enough for everything to dry out???? South River Gun Club and the surrounding area are both fine. The GSSF Annual Match (typically around 500 entries) is this weekend, Area 6 Multigun next weekend.

HS101 Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 I was just fishing around on the area 6 site Southeast Shooter and saw that the match book has been posted.... 8 days.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Bond Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 If anyone is wanting to learn how to build a weather resistant range, they should visit South River. The work there over the past 5 years all but insures that neither rain nor sleet nor snow will disrupt our shooting. Now if only the folks at USSA would visit and learn, all would be well there too.

Still Praying Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 I'll be there too. I need the fun. I hope I can remember which end to put the shells in my Remy. I've only shot one 3-gun in over a year. BTW, I think half of my stuff is still in my truck. Ha Ha Ha, you think I'm joking. Ronnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Now that the masses know you are enroute, we will sell out for sure. For anyone wondering what the weather will be like, it rained today and the highs have been in the low 80's. The forecast is for cooling this week and the long range is dry. We should have perfect match weather and if we do not, we will blame it on Bill Noyes.

Still Praying Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 I just looked at the Self Squading for this match and I can't believe there is only 68 shooters signed up. This match and the Ft. Benning 3-Gun are the best 3-Gun matches I've ever shot. I guess the cost of amo is going to stop alot of shooters. It almost stopped me. Some time you just need to say "The Hell With It" and jump in. You know, I can't help but feeling there are some anti-gunners out there saing "look we're doing it, their numbers are falling". Man it makes me mad. SORRY FOR THE RANT. Ronnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man it makes me mad. SORRY FOR THE RANT. Ronnie What I do not get is that there are regularly 90+ shooters there for their local 3 gun. We change the name of the match and they stay home??? Go figure. The up side for those of us who are coming is that this will now be BY FAR the richest prize table of the year in terms of value of product per shooter.

Bryan 45 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Have enough shooters signed up to recognize Heavy Metal as a division? I know you have my app for HM limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's only 9 hours away though I am confident that if you are there ready to shoot on Saturday that we will get you home in plenty of time to make it home on Sunday and to work on Monday morning.

Charles Bond Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 (edited) As I look at the app, I see that HM is an"aggregate" division, what does that mean? You have to shoot a SS pistol in .45, a pump with irons, and a .308 that is either limited or tactical? How does the prize table work for something like this, will there be separate tables for optic and irons? Since I don't shoot much USPSA 3-gun, is there going to be separate prize tables based on division participation, order of finish overall, or does pistol class come into play also? Thanks, Mike Aggregate means that HM optics and irons are shooting together so we can recognize HM. HM equipment will be as per the USPSA Multigun rules which we are required ot follow. Since I can not get anyone other than myself excited about USPSA doing rifle and shotgun classifications, the classification you have in pistol is the one you shoot in multigun. The match is going to be a very good one. Please bring a buddy and come and enjoy it. Edited September 29, 2009 by Charles Bond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aggregate means that HM optics and irons are shooting together so we can recognize HM. HM equipment will be as per the USPSA Multigun rules which we are required ot follow. There were 2 applications. The first one only had HM, and the notation about the "aggregate combination" for prizes. A few days later, a second application was posted with separate HM Limited and HM Tactical divisions listed. Are we shooting 2 different divisions but then combining them for match awards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, HM_Limited and HM_Tactical are full, independently scored and awarded stages. Now, that being said, no one has actually signed up for HM_Tactical. The necessary number of people HAVE signed up for HM_Limited in order for it to be recognized as a division at the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeFoley Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Are we there yet? How did I shoot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springy Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Are we there yet? How did I shoot? 2 alpha's, 3 charlie's, and 1 delta. 8 steel, but you rang 1 that didn't fall. On the reshoot you broke your barrel link, and never got the steel down. You came in 14th in Optikal, and took home 2 bottles of Brownel's famous gun oil. It was sunny with very little rain, and you got the last hotdog at the awards dinner. Hope you had a safe trip home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShooterSteve Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I am very sorry that I am missing this match. I had a lot of fun there last year. My son has a high school soccer game on Fri night, and I really try to support him and his activities. I only have him another year and then he will be off to college. I hope my shooting schedule gets freed up then. He keeps asking where he should go to college to play ball, and I keep telling him Wyoming or Utah He doesn't think its funny, wonder why?
