I had a great time today!
I have sooo many learning points form today, I can't wait to get my butt to the range and get it all learned for good.
Well done on this match, Hoser!

agreed. I was glad to see a guy running an AK out there among the masses of AR's. Although he didnt do very well, he did a damn good job considering he was running true open sights, at those distances and those situations. kudos to hoser and justin as well for running another great match. I had a lot of fun
Here are a few pics from this month's match.
Thanks to Chris Marsh for taking the photos while I was running the timer.

If there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to buy a gun, there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to vote.
For legal reasons, that's a joke.
Days like today remind me why I do this.
Shot some guns and hung out with friends.

I shot like crap, but it was still fun to run around and get dirty.
One of these days I'll get the whole rifle/optic combo dialed in and see if I can't make something happen.
I used some steel cased crap ammo that I had laying around, and I'm sure that wasn't really helping anything. I tried learning how my ammo works at different ranges, but I can only get out to 200 yds. Even then, I'm not getting really spectacular accuracy.
Surprisingly, I had no problems hitting the 385 yd IPSC steel (with the strobe light attached). The other targets that were 9" across were a tad difficult for my ammo/rifle/optic/end-user combo.
I'll get it one of these days, though.
I had a great time out there this month. This was the first match I have attended with the scope on the gun, and I can now say it makes a helluva difference (thanks again chris). The natural terrain stage was one of the better ones I have seen created, IMO, and standards were fun. I blew the last stage, but there was still a good time had by all.
Hoser, GREAT match! I'm glad I made it. Will definitely shoot more in the future.
We had an absolutely awesome set up crew today. Huge thanks to Katnip, Tim G, Dave H and everyone else that skipped that extra 30 minutes of sleep and came out to support the match. Without people helping out, matches cant continue.
Notably, today a Limited division shooter, Robert C cleaned the standards stage. It has been a long time since anyone has done that. Congrats, well done.
PLEASE.... IMPORTANT......
Do not handle rifles or bag/unbag rifle when people are downrange in any way shape or form. I even spoke about this exact thing at the shooters meeting.
We will continue with "Hit Factor" based scoring for the rest of the year as it heavily emphasizes hits over speed compared to "Time Plus" scoring.
See you on 22 July.
