April Action Match

Weather?  We shoot in all kinds of weather.  Ask the brave souls who shot in rain for hours last month.  If it snows Saturday we will shoot Sunday.  The most likely forecast is for a maximum of 1-3" Saturday which should not even lay on the roads.  Even in a worst case scenario the roads should be bare by Sunday.  We will start on time Sunday.  If there is snow on the ground you should wear boots or more aggressive tread on your running shoes.  Maybe you have to move a little slower.  It is likely temperatures are in the 40's Sunday so dress accordingly.

That being said I think some of the weather men are sensationalizing and everything will be fine.

A new record!  The match filled in less than 3 hours. You may still email to request a slot, but it is extremely likely you'll be placed on our waiting list.

If you're in, you should have received an email stating that.  If not you'll be getting one telling you where you are on the waiting list.

If you got in, but need to drop out for some reason I must know by midnight Thursday night or you will be counted as a no-show.  You don't want to be on that list.

If you're on the waiting list you will be notified as soon as possible if you get in.

Some of you may be wondering why we limit how many people can shoot.  We have chosen to hold squad size to 10 people.  We actually sign up a few extra knowing there will be no-shows.  Our last match took more than 7 hours.  I was the last one out at after 5:00 pm (we started shooting on time at 9:00 am).  There was rain and it was the first match of the year, but we still would have been around 3:00 or later getting done if everything went well.  More people would mean matches longer than that and at that point I'm not sure they're fun anymore.  You have to draw the line somewhere.  We run a high quality match and draw shooters from several states for our monthly matches.  We are not prepared to give up quality for quantity.

We will be hosting our April action match sponsored by Geissele Geissele Automatics | Quality Triggers for the Warfighter and Competitor on Sunday, April 10th.  It will be 6 stages and all 3 guns will be used.  We will be using slugs and rifle slings this match, and we do expect to use most of, if not all, of the 200 yards available on the rifle range.  The match fee will be $30.
