Pistol shots to 50 yards. Carbine shots to 250 yards. rifle shots to 950 yards with one target @ 1760 yards.

hmmm might want to re-name this "4 gun"

what's the elevation at this range??

[WoodlandShooter]

I have never done any competitive shooting, but $90 seems kinda steep even with a cash payout (referencing my experience with racing motorcycles...so, it's an Apples to oranges comparison)

found it   ~1500' Looks like I need a bigger stick!! I'm done at ~1450 yards

That sounds like a whole bunch of fun! 

$90 doesn't seem unreasonable to me; bicycle races, marathons, and other similar events also cost quite a bit to stage, and it is only fair to have the user (participant) pay.

Best of luck.  I don't own the necessary equipment, otherwise I would seriously consider such a day at the run & gun range.

How is this for spectators? 

[mountainman]

Maybe some of the local guys will come out of the hills to prove their metal, so to speak?

Precision rifle with dope to 950 yards and dope for  1760 yards. Rifle may be bolt or semi, but NO magnums and a speed limit of 3150FPS.

so, quick question.

What NON-Magnum Calibre can go a mile and stay inder 3150 at the muzzle???

Would need a pill with a true 0.73 G1 BC...

I would love to own such an animal

[rbros]

The magnums are a little hard on the target is all, actually more the fastners and stands.  Not many matches allow them anymore.

Not sure what you are shooting, but my 6mm with a 105 Hybrid at 3150 does fine at 1750yds.  Still supersonic to a little over 1800yds.  Still has just enough elevation in the scope as well.

I would be all over this but the "precision rifle" part might be hard to come up with.   

[WoodlandShooter]

I pull the chute at 1200

if I went, I would be running my 270 winny with the 165 Matrix pills at 2850.

I have only taken it to 1400yards so far...lets just say, I have some practice to do!!

[ELKBURGER]

Sounds like fun. Hope someone organizes an event like that on the westside.

[WoodlandShooter]

no kidding!!!! My recce/mk12/frankengun is almost done!!
