USPSA RIFLE @ New Bedford - Sunday 11/27

[MAShooter]

Sunday 11/27 will be our annual USPSA Rifle match with 5 stages of Action Rifle fun. Open, Tactical (one optic) and Limited divisions.

Complete rules can be found here: http://www.uspsa.org/rules/2008RifleRuleswedits1-10.pdf

Registration starts at 9am, shooters meeting at 9:25am and first caps at 9:30am.

Expected round count will be between 150 and 200 rounds. Max distance is only 35 yards, but don't assume that means it will be easy.

Directions to the club and range: http://rodgun-nb.org/directions.htm

We're always interested in new folks getting involved, both new shooters to the sport as well as people wanting to get involved in helping with the match. New shooters are always welcome.

 

[Gammon]

Well done. You answered all of my questions before I asked them. See you on the 27th.

 

[Dan S]

There will be no steel targets, due to the short distances?

Correct. Paper and clay birds only. So steel-core and penetrator ammo is A-OK for this one.

 

[Dan S]

Dave,
See you next Sunday. May your Thanksgiving be a happy one for you and your family!

Can't wait.

Dan,
I'm going to have to give you a hard time about shooting that cheap ammo!
I guess it's OK as long as you don't get it a WALMART!

Save Money, Shop Smart, Only at WALMART.

Next thing you know you'l be shootin those WALMART shotgun shells!

Just kidding, I might pick you some cheap stuff myself!

O.K. - Mike W has talked me into trying this. TOTAL newbie! I would appreciate it if you would try to keep the laughter at a dull roar . (If I bring my new-to-me shotgun - will there be someplace/time that I can try it out after the match?)

You'll have a great time. What are you using for a rifle?

Dan,
I was looking at shooting 308 for a while. As a matter of fact I shot some 308 and 30-06 yesterday, bolt guns, just for fun. After shooting 12ga slugs recently, the 308 is a baby and the 30-06 isn't too bad either.

I'm sure you read Pat Kelly's article on feeding the 308?

2012 I'm going with limited and/or TO. Might consider heavy metal in 2013.

[Dan S]

David,
I haven't read Pat's article, I've been in contact with him though. When the Johnson's decided to have a Heavy Metal only match, it was enough to push me over that edge to shoot the division.

How many magazines would you recommend?

I've got three 20 round mags (and one 10 round'r if necessary).

Well, last year one stage was 55-57 minimum rounds. More mags are always better

I'll bring 'em all then! Thank you

 

[Supermoto]

you're are going to want some 30rds, try to get some before the match. I try to bring enough so I won't have to load mags during the match

My budget is pretty tight, not sure I have room enough to pick up extra mags but I will take a look at what's available. I don't mind reloading the 4 I have though

One should be OK with a backup in case of a malf
