MACHINE GUN MATCH 04/11/10 TONY DEE

It was a nice morning for the match with cool temperatures and little wind. The weatherman called for strong winds at Noon so we moved things along as quickly as we could. Jr. set this match up and it was a Running and Gunning type match with multiple reloads. We started with the Redheaded Death Star and then steel targets with strategically placed hostages. It was a great match and I want to thank John for putting it together. The winds started at about 1130 hrs and we decided not to do a team event but questions of our masculinity and hardiness were brought into play and we recanted. We set up a two man team event that was great fun. Next month will be our annual Three Gun Match. You will need Centerfire Pistol or Revolver, a Shotgun and a Subgun. I will send out a notice before the match with ammo requirements. Match will be on May 9th. At 0900. This is Mother’s day and we will try and get things finished ASAP so you won’t be in too much trouble. Be sure and check out our website at www.vegasshooters.com for pictures of the match.

It was a great COF and the weather, although overcast, was near perfect until ten minutes before we finished and the wind picked up.

I don't know why the photos have the right side cropped off... :scratch:

How do you divide up the empty brass?

Seems like ya'll had a BLAST!! :lol:

Question: Does most everyone reload or use surplus type ammo? Even if I could afford the weapon, ammo cost would send me straight into the poor house!!

...Question: Does most everyone reload or use surplus type ammo?

Some people reload, some use surplus ammo, and some use premium factory ammo. There's no set rule, it's whatever makes you happy and runs in your gun. I'd say most people used between 100 to 200 rounds this match depending on their ability and approach to the target arrays. I chose to "sweep" a portion of the steel poppers so I used more ammo... I also had a faster time. Guys with slow firing guns who chose to pull mostly singles used about a hundred rounds. We only do this once a month so the ammo costs aren't a deal buster.
