Pueblo Tactical Rifle

[ColoWyo]

Hey guys. Thanks for taking over the match. The few times I have done it, I had a blast. Much appreciated.

Justin and I have put together a good group of guys to handle things.

I am hoping that some of the changes I make will make it a little less intimidating for newer shooters to come out and give it a try.

Hope to see you next year.

Hows the baby? Have you got any sleep outside the cockpit in a month?

[ColoWyo]

Sleep? Whats that? I gotta go back to work to get some rest. Don't have to change diapers at the DoubleTree.

Hopefully I can make them next summer. Maybe you should get rid of the standards. That stage beats me like a Sunday morning boner.

Maybe you should get rid of the standards.

Part of me hates standards. A big part. However it is a great way to tell if you are getting any better and exactly what you need to work on.

Justin and I am going to change the standards though.

Still 75 seconds. Still no penalty for misses. Still shot on MGM Flash Targets.

200 yards. 5 shots prone. Mono-podding, bi-pods, slings, ect *are* allowed.

175 yards. 5 shots sitting, kneeling or squatting. Mono-podding, bi-pods, slings, ect *are* allowed.

150 yards. 5 shots standing. Unsupported.

Then 5 standing, reload 5 sitting, reload 5 prone at 150. Mono-podding, bi-pods, slings, ect *are* allowed.

I never understood, liked or agreed with Eddies completely unsupported in all positions rule. I nagged him about it and we never saw eye to eye on it.

We are also going to time plus scoring like 99% of al the other matches out there. Each stage will be worth the same amount of points.

All 3 stages will require no more than 30 rounds each keeping ammo costs down and wear and tear on barrels. I like to shoot and can afford to shoot more, but after a while you just keep doing the same thing over and over.

The mid-range stage will have some in your face paper to make sure we remember how to shoot close up at warp speed. A very important part of 3-gunning I think Pueblo rifle has lacked this past couple years.

We might also have bolt gun side matches. Low round count (15-20) and Virginia count steel.

Sounds like fun Hoser. I might have to do some refiguring of my AR. I've been shooting these with my Varmint AR with a Lupy 6.5-20. Not sure how that would work on the close up stuff.

Any excuse to buy some new toys.
