Could we get an updated description of the planned courses of fire?

Thanks!

Interested, but would like to know COF and the Schedule.
Website says 7am-1pm. Guessing show up whenever and wait to shoot?

 

[22Shooter]

There will be 5 courses of fire. Each course will be engaged 3 times with a rifle, 3 times with a pistol. The worst time of each will drop off, leaving you with your best two times. Loaner firearms will be available for use. You can chooses between two classes:

Open: Any 22lr with an optic or compensator
Limited: iron sights only, fiber optic post sights

Signed up.

Are you guys limiting the total number of participants?

 

[Magnumite]

What are the courses of fire?

 

[22Shooter]

@jbollman: we've tried to organize the courses so there won't be too much down time.

 

[22Shooter]

@rsj1231: yes we are limiting the amount of people, I believe it's no more than 50

Signed up! sounds like it will be fun

 

[22Shooter]

I'm awaiting confirmation of the targets that were ordered for the competition before I post the courses. One I think will be very fun and unique.

A steel Jax target will be set X amount of meters from the bench. You'll have to "race" the Jax past the finish line as fast as you can

How is it set up time-wise? Do you have to be there at 7am??

 

[730dc]

typical any match i have ever been to you have to be their at the start time. to go over safety and rule brief at start of match

 

[22Shooter]

730dc is correct, 7am we start the safety briefing and break everyone up into squads, start shooting shortly after. I'd recommend showing up at least a half hour early to sign in

 

[protegeV]

holy balls, that's too early for me on a weekend

 

[snyperdave]

0630 is early but if thats what we have to do then alrighty then. Question 22Shooter, do we shoot both rifle and pistol or do we choose one of them?

 

[22Shooter]

You get to shoot both, if you only have one, Freestate will loan you the other
