A very brief over view from the above post...

All targets will be steel from 1/2 moa to reduced IPSC targets. The match will incorporate shooting from cover, semi-trailers, vehicles, multiple barricades, weak side unsupported, and thought process shots. With distances out to 650 yards.

This match requires 1 moa rifle and turret adjustable scope, 10x or better. Rough count on rounds is 100. 223 to 300 win mag only. It’s advised that competitors have good data and good zeros. Must also have a range finding reticle and basic knowledge of how reticle and turrets work to accurately range and engage targets. Data books highly recommended with correct dope.

The dates are 9-27-13 thru 9-28-13 and the match will beheld at BWSA in Port Huron.

This sounds like it'd be really cool. Doubt my 6.5 Grendel will be built by then, let alone have a data book and dope figured out. Good luck.

I wish I had a picture of the prize rifle that Pierce Engineering put together with his action and the AICS stock from Miles HighShooting with a 243 barrel from Benchmark Barrels... that was a beautiful rifle.

For most of us it was our first rifle match and we all left with area’s to improve our shooting from the experience and tips given by fellow competitors and range staff... Everyone left with a prize and many new friendships. It was a truly great experience.
