Thanks again Craig

Slowplay,

We need to do something like this @ Wildcat. I wish I wasn't going to be gone this weekend I would be all over this. Jim

Picked up a brick of Minimags at MCsports for the MKIII. Tomorrow I'll be hunting more Interceptors for the rifle.

Ran out of daylight to sight in the 22....if I have time to do it at lunch tomorrow we are still good, otherwiseit looks like I will be SOL.

If I had something other than a bolt action LR with a 10 rd clip I'd be all over this. But alas I don't. I may swing by to check it out, or try to borrow a gun from someone.

I have a Mitchell Arms High Standard Trophy II with a Pro Point on it.
7 10 round magazines that you can use.

The last time I shot it it functioned fine and was zeroed at 25 yards with Federal bulk from Walmart.
It should be needless to say, but you take your chances when borrowing a gun and hoping that it functions with the ammo you have.
If I make it out to Riley today, I'll test it again with Federal bulk.

Another good day of Testing Stage Equipment, it should be fun tomorrow! I feel confident that I can shoot the match with less than an ammo can of bullets!!! I will be shooting my Ruger 22/45. When I'm not shooting, if anyone would like to borrow some of my mags, that's ok. Anyone who attends this match, please remind me that there is a front site on my gun for a reason, remember to USE it!!! LOL!!!

 

[Litlratt]

At this point we have 154 targets planned for 4 stages. Should we come up with 46 for the last one, that would be 200 targets for your shooting pleasure for $10.00. 400 for $15.00 if you shoot 2 guns.

We have also decided to allow one Mulligan (do over) per match per competitor as a result of a malfunction. It must be called at the time of the malf, not at the end of your string.

 

[BillD]

I got Craig's gun sighted in for me, ran a couple mags through the Marvel unit. For $15, how can I go wrong?

Front sight, yep, I packed it, now I just need to remember I brought it.

Front sight?? Just shoot where the little voices in your head tell you to!

 

[ZbornacSVT]

Looks like I will pull in right at 9:45. Save ne a spot!

The rimfire madness was a great event, Collin and I met more great people from the Riley club. We are looking forward to the next event that we can attend. I've got loading blisters, lol
Thanks again

 

[ZbornacSVT]

Good to meet you and your son today, Brian!
In regards to the blisters....I may have to roh-sham-bo Doc for his speedloader!

GREAT event! Lots of fun. Excellent venue.
First time to Riley and enjoy the facilities very much.

Thanks to all you guys for putting it on.

 

[Litlratt]

Thanks to everyone who attended the inaugural match.
A special thanks to all those that helped set up and tear down. 200 total targets and 151 stands that had to be pounded into the ground is quite a chore.

26 guns, 15 shooters. 2 squads and, I believe, we finished shooting between 2:30 and 3:00.

Congrats to ZbornacSVT. .36 second between him and I, in Rifle optics division, after 5 stages and 200 targets. Well done. It would have been even more fun had we been squad together.

So what is the gun of choice ??? Is it better to use a Hand gun or Rifle ??

I would say that the gun of choice is what you like shooting the most.
The majority of shooters today shot both. For $15.00, why wouldn't you?

What Optic was on ZbornacSVT gun.

Another great match! Thanks again Gary for the hard work and planning! I would also like to thank the guys that shot in my squad for helping to load magazines for my antique Stevens Model 62 Rifle. Great fun at a great price! As they would say in one of those credit card commercials, PRICELESS!!!!

 

[BillD]

Do they make a Beta Mag for a .22 rifle?

It was great fun. Thanks Gary for your hard work.

I gots work to do in the .22 equipment area.

Black Dog has a 50rd. Actually a good price when you consider what the 26ers cost!
