This is an EXTREMELY unique event where you will get to shoot on the Camp Atterbury pistol range used for Special Forces training. It has computer controlled "pop-up" targets that can be programmed for multiple different scenarios and ability levels. The general public does NOT get to use this range.
You must sign-up before Sunday June 3rd for this event so we can get the gov required paperwork back to Camp Atterbury. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity!

I hope you can see it and my description makes sense. Feel free to call me at the number in the email.
Today is the cut off
Ummmmmmm. Fun doesn't come close to describing this event. Fan fuggin tastic may come close.
800 rounds shot in 4 hours. Drawing from a holster. Mag changes galore. Double taps. Triple taps. One target of mine got 9 hits as fast as possible. There are witnesses too.
It. Was. Freaking. Awesome.

This event has ruined me! Plain ole goin' to the range will never be the same!! Matt and I had a wonderful day. MANY THANKS TO 308JAKE(...actually living the cliche' by wearin' khakis) and all the other folks involved in presenting us with this rare opportunity.

I've never done this before! Was a blast! This wasn't a class, it was a pew pew pew festival. If I shot the tango once and it went down I didn't keep shooting. I used just shy of 600 rounds.
I learned a few things about my guns (I shot a Steyr M9-A1 & an H&K VP9). I thought my Steyr slide lock was worn out but my new VP9 also didn't lock back a few times too. Must be my thumb placement. This made for some challenging mag swaps before the tangos went away. It always seemed to happen on the farthest away double pop up targets too.
Oh and S&B 124 grain ammo primers are really firgging hard! I had ~6 that didn't go pew & a couple locked the action closed somehow after not "pew-ing". All the Bobcat Armament 147 grain ammo performed perfectly. Not a single no-pew or stoppage from either gun.
I'm pulling raw go-pro video right now and will throw a few links up here when they finish getting processed.

Hop,
Awesome video! You might have scored better if you held your head straight though
(for the record, Hop was one of the top shooters today, was really nailing the targets). Great day shooting with some great guys on an AWESOME range!

Great day shooting with some great guys on an AWESOME range!Today was a great day, and a big thank you to all the shooters for being safe and the feedback. Big shout out to Joker and Matt for scoring the only perfect hit to kill ratios. This first event was a success and an AAR will be forthcoming along with more pics and videos.

Two to three A-10 Warthogs were doing straffing runs in the morning just to the south of our location. Awesome to hear those 30mm rotary cannons going off
I managed to catch a couple of frames of Bocefus along with 2 cases in the air from a double-tap. Nice!
I burned through 620 rounds in about 4 hours and had a blast.
