[jwfuhrman]

Cut off date was supposed to have an extra 1 on the date to read 3/11. The first match is the cutoff

I dont think my Dillon could keep up!

Tis why i sooooooo desperately want a 650XL. I'd be able to load much more Thani can on my, wait for it, 450!!!! Yes I said 450....

You'll have to check out my new LNL next time your in town.

Did you send it off to Dillon and have them do the 550 update on it? I know thats an option through them but dont know any more other than that. I love my 650. I dont think I could get a long with anything less.

Unless they are pointing straight up, I'd go with down.

Let's put it this way. I don't want a gun pointed at me when I'm at a match, even if it's unloaded and has a chamber flag.

If you can move it around without sweeping anyone, I think you are good to go but this is Jon's baby.

 

[jwfuhrman]

Pointing down like Bill said is preferred but as long as they are a cart, securely, with chamber flag in, I'm fine with it.

As of 3.1.2012 we have 53 Shooters broken down as follows:

33 Tac Optics

Any idea how many rounds per firearm we'll need?

 

[jwfuhrman]

Thanks for bringing that up. It was originally gonna be 60/60/60 and 5 slugs, but I need to up it to 75 Rifle, 75 Pistol, 60 Shotgun, 5 Slugs. That is the MINIMUM round cout. I'll be bringing 120 Rifle, 120 Pistol, 100 Shotgun and 10 slugs just in case of reshoots.

6 stages

3 long courses
1 medium course
2 short/speed shoots

 

[jwfuhrman]

Also up to 55 shooters as of 3.3.2012

 

[mertbl]

You added another stage? Geez, I'll bring my tent.

 

[Hogwylde]

How long is a "long" course at ACC?

 

[mertbl]

I'd assume he means round count not distance,

Thats no joke. Between the number of registered shooters, and those who will just show up, and the stage this may be an all day/night affair! Hopefully it can be pulled off.

We should have 7-8 hours of light if we go until sunset. I imagine even the high round count stages will run fast. Hopefully plenty of help with setup the day before and morning of and we can get rolling on schedule.

More stages = smaller squads = faster day

I agree. I dont think it should be a huge issue, and I like the fact that more people are taking an interest to the sport. Should help gain some spotlight and possibly encourage the powers at be to try and get some universal rules in the works.

Unfortunately, Wildcat is the closest range and is still and hour and 35 minutes away from the house, so no setup help from me. Im always in for tear down though!

Im always in for tear down though!

With not all the dates on the 2nd Sundays I might get to play in 3 gun some.

How is wildcat an hour and 35 mins from your house when I can make it there in under an hour? Taking the wife's horse and a buggy??
