Big Bear Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Just want to remind everyone that tomorrow is the last day for the reduced early entry fee. So, get those applications postmarked before the 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

assaulter Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 I'm just curious if you arrive early the day before if you can walk around and see the stages or are they too spread out? This will be my first match requiring slugs (since I just started 3gun this year). Without going into great detail about this match specifically, generally what type of scenarios are encountered with slugs? Do you have to plan your round count where you may have two birdshot targets, then need two slugs, and back to birdshot? I appreciate any feedback. Looking forward to this one. I think one of the reasons I got so hooked on 3gun is because it is so dynamic. It really is a thinking game among other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year you had to go back and forth, or slug-birdshot-slugs is possible too, just depends on sequence you want to shoot it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just be advised, the RO's will be shooting at that time. The slugs will be mixed in with bird shot, but not all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopalong Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 So...........Big Bear, What are your entries looking like ???? I'm just glad we're not both on the same weekend as last year. I unfortunately won't be able to attend your fine match (I have to set mine up) but I invite you guys to come down to the Mississippi 3-gun Challenge the weekend after your match. I haven't spoken to Linda since the Shotgun Championship in Kentucky last weekend, but she said she had several entries already. I expect to fill my match though. Good luck with yours, Sounds fun. Wish I could make it. Hopalong MS 3-gun Challenge MD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Bear Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 We're a rollin' along pretty good. More prizes, more shooters, it's gonna be a blast (Right Chad?). Sorry you won't be here Hop. I'm gonna try to make yours. My wife wanted to take a vacation in Florida this year, so I told her I couldn't go until after our match was over, and that we had to drive. Isn't Mississippi on the way to Floria? :-) So if everything works out I'll be seein' ya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vespid_Wasp Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Last shot? Tannerite. Chad I would love to shoot this again. It will all really depend on the weather and harvest. Hopefully there is at least one slot for the last minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully there is at least one slot for the last minute. The last shot is a time honored tradition in some military matches and Perry. I believe that the last shot is fired to let every one know the ranges are cold for the day. We just like to do ours BIG!!!! If anyone has something fun to blow up, bring it down. Last year we blew up a nice floor safe. Greg, we may still have you draw up the stages with your stage design software. Ill let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrysuperhawk Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Back to the slug question for a moment, what distance are we looking at for those slugs, and what are we going to be shooting at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abn-rgr Posted August 8, 2010 Author Share Posted August 8, 2010 OK, this has been kept under wraps, but now its official. O3GC will be the first match for the next season of 3 Gun Nation.

RufDog Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Back to the slug question for a moment, what distance are we looking at for those slugs, and what are we going to be shooting at? planning to have slug shots on very reasonable tgts primarily between 50-70 yds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we talking full-size paper, LaRues, Poppers, Clays, Gongs? Would like to do my homework before the match, but need some G2 to prep. Thanks!
