SCSA match @ ACC 20/3/2010

[theturtle06]

Anyone from ACC want to chime in on this? I went to the IDPA match two weekends ago and was extremely impressed by the range, the running of the match, and the SO/ROs. I really want to go to the SCSA match and wanted to get an idea of round count, equipment needed, ect., so if any of the regulars or ACC members would be willing to give me more info that would

Minimum round count will be either 100 or 125 rounds, depending on if they have four or five stages. Each stage requires a minimum of 5 rounds, and you will shoot each stage five times, with your highest time of the five being eliminated. Your score will be your total time for the match.

Divisions will be the same as USPSA, plus a "Get Shooting Steel Fast" (GSSF) division and several for .22 rimfire. GSSF and the .22 divisions to not require drawing from the holster, but the other divisions do.

Eric should be sending an announcement soon. I will post on here once i receive it.

Bummer...I don't even have enough gear for this. Do fiber optic sights count as "optic" sights? I am assuming so - fiber optic, after all...

 

[rvb]

policy on multiple guns? (specifically production and .22? should be easy since I won't have to holster the .22, or un-holster the PD gun)?

Do you allow this?
If so, do you run the shooter w/ both guns back-to-back?

Just might pop down for it tomorrow... been a while since I've done SC.

need to shake out the winter cobwebs.

No, FO inserts are still IRONS.

What are you missing? Someone might be able to help.

Ryan, Multiple guns are allowed... and are quite often done... though more than two is usually too much for one shooter. We usually run them back-to-back.

What don't you have?

I only have 4 magazines, and 3 that are really suitable for steel matches. I think I have it covered (thanks again Dave) but if anyone has an extra box of ammo they would be able to bring I would take it off their hands. I've got a box of WWB but it sounds like I need just a bit more. Thanks for the offers to help.

edit - nevermind...I haven't been able to sleep at all tonight so I don't think I am going to make it.

Thanks to Eric and crew for setting up a fun,semi-tough steel match. The weather was great and I think there were around 10 new shooters. I never did hear that whistle though.
