Anyone interested in shooting in our match, go to Practiscore and sign up. You need one rifle and one pistol or revolver capable of loading 10 rounds. Any action that meets the load out requirement is ok to use.

Nope, not signing up for anymore accounts, for anything. Can't register without an account :-(

Ok. You can show up on that Sunday as we do allow walk ons.

Anyone who hasn't participated in one of these you're missing out....a whole lot of fun!

John I may be interested in doing this. Could you tell me what the typical target ranges are? Also I don't have a holster for my .22 pistol. Can you start a pistol stage from the low ready or is a holster required?

The distance isn't a factor, it's about speed. No holster required.

Thanks, I guess I was just trying to determine if it was like a mars match where some of the targets are 15-20 yds away and others are 100 yds away. I've got a 2x10 scope on my .22 rifle zeroed at 25yds, so if I need to adjust that or put a RDS or 1x4 scope on there, I'd like to plan that ahead of time.

Distance will vary but 20 yards should be about the max. Use a sight that will allow you to get on target quick...I use open sights

Holsters aren't required as you take and replace your gun to a stand each time you fire. The distances are from 21 feet to 45 feet. You stand facing the steel and shoot away.

The ranges are very short....as John said about 7 yds for pistol to about 15 yds for rifle. Most folks use a red-dot sight on both rifle and pistol to allow quick target acquisition.

How many pistol mags do you recommend?

 

[John from MD]

You need three mags for pistol and rifle. If you only have two, someone will reload for you while you are shooting.

This is a really fun match. I started doing it earlier this summer and now look forward to it each month.

I've been to a few... the event is fun and the people are friendly. I was looking to join the club, this event was recommended.
