ohhh I like this!

Do I shoot my red dot equipped rifle, rely on Dan to put a better equipped rifle in my hands, or just go ahead and order a 1-6 now ?

Sean,
I'll be at the Armalite 3 man 3 Gun that weekend. You can use your dot, sight in at 200 yards if possible, and shoot Tac Irons. If you want to shoot the Monson 3 Gun in August, let me know what you need.
I shot the June Monson match with a Meopta 1-4X, good glass is better than cheap glass and magnification.

Can't wait. Just signed up.

Can't wait for this, got a chance to shoot granby's first uspsa match and their range has so much potential for us action shooters in wmass. Between monson and Granby it looks like you could fill a schedule for a year.

Edited because I have fat thumbs.

 

[Bodhisattva]

Estimated round count for each platform?

 

[wmass]

Bumpage. Any details?

 

[wmassregulators]

got a message from the MD.
round count is no more than 150 rounds per platform.

 

[bigblue]

Any thoughts on what the max range for rifle shots will be?

 

[Bodhisattva]

I'd expect 350 or so, kinda like it says in the original post...

Well it said "possibly" so I was simply looking to confirm that, thanks.

 

[wmassregulators]

Great match. So much fun

2/3rds the fun of 3 gun!

 

[wmassregulators]

2/3rds the fun of 3 gun!

I did miss my shotgun

 

[LowSpeedHighDrag]

2/3rds the fun of 3 gun!

I'd say 3/2 the fun of 3 gun.

 

[wmass]

It was a fun shoot. That sun was brutal!

Don't like shotgun, Don?

It felt like we wet shooting in the desert; tube of aloe in my bag today for sure.

 

[LowSpeedHighDrag]

Don't like shotgun, Don?

Let's just say I prefer rifle and pistol much more. Also, not a real fan of shotgun reloading, plus the shotgun tends to dominate in importance over the other 2 guns because of the time it takes to reload.

I'd also like having each stage use only 2 guns, preferably only 1 long gun at a time. That speeds up shooting the stage. Staging, shooting, then clearing all 3 guns seems like a bit of a slog.

Different strokes for different folks.

Do we have any idea when scores will be posted? I want to see how bad I sucked.
