We need a one of the mods to merge the two post.

I'll be at the match. Kyle you shooting open or T/R?

 

[K Train]

i think i'll shoot open mike, give you a better chance in T/R

 

[K Train]

This will be just like the modified match but with NRA rules, no muzzle break, you can shoot off any NRA Approved rest or bipod, no coaching (unless they have a team match) a little more strict on the time limits, but all in all it will be the same.

Everyone needs to read carefully.The XTC match was cancelled.No one said anything about the Palma match,although I couldn't get an answer from anyone till now.

Will there be accomodations for those Low-Brow, Iron-Sighted, Sling-Usin' Elbow Shooters?

 

[MDCXD]

I'm sure there will be a couple of Elbow shooters at the match.

Absolutely!They'll even have the correct targetry.NRA scores will be turned in.These are full blown NRA matches.

sweet see ya there! lets pray for some good weather!

Just a quick question for everyone, whats a feeler for how many participants we are having? Weather is supposed to be a bit nasty, if so we are thinking about cancelling

 

[MissedAgain]

Well....the weather is supposed to be worse than awful.

weather.com (not known for being "correct" shows cold, rainy and breezy on Sat; cold, less rain, but windy on Sun.

I might make one day or the other, but I honestly can't see shooting both days.

I'd lean toward Sat, just because shooing LR in the 18mph winds that they're forcasting on doesn't really appeal to me .

I know two others that were considering it, one will probably call it off, the other (NateG) is a Young, Strong, Hard-Headed type after his High Master Long Range card, so he'll probably show up no matter what the conditions.

[NateG]

Yup, I'm planning on shooting both days, and hoping the wind doesn't bite me too bad for that HM card. The forecast doesn't look too bad on Accuweather. (Only a little rain)

 

[K Train]

I doubt i'll make it with the weather forecasted

Mike will not be there.

Bad weather, gonna cancel the match for this weekend guys. Sorry to those that planned to attend.

Us aspiring LR types appreciate your efforts.

Thank you
