General line like our typical centerfire matches. Same for the April and Nov. match. The June and Aug. matches will be at the Fort Angeles private range.

Should be a good time.

I was planning on shooting this match but I discovered that my scope doesn't have enough elevation to get out to 200 yards and I don't have any kind of reticle for hold overs!

Mike, I have the range bag with the tools, timers and such. Randall can print up the match report and stage discriptions for you....

Is there going to be a "sight in" period before the match? As my scope is not sighted in, that would be a requirement.

Yes, from the line opening to the first cease fire (about 1/2 hr) will be for sighting in and confirming dope. There will be paper targets at 50 and 100 yards, and steel at 150 and 200.

In memory of my friend Officer Ryan Bonaminio Riverside PD. Gone but not forgotten.

Does anyone have Randal's Wolf Match drop chart in Mils?

I have the day off. Might show up. Been awhile snce I shot the .22

I thought more people than this would be signing up for some reason because this is going to be one fun match. Best part is I don't have to load any ammo!

Mike... I will stop by your house after 8pm tomorrow night and drop the stuff off....

Randal's dope card for .22 Wolf match is in MOA.... any chance that anyone has converted this into MILS? I have a MIL scope on my .22. Thanks

Also... what ballistic software will calculate a table for .22LR

Anyone want to shoot but not have a rifle? I have 2 loaners. $15 for 3 boxes of ammo is all you would need to cover (plus match fees of course).

Ok, I forgot that the first MOA sheet may have windage already in mils and I divided it by 3.438 again.
I'll fix it tonight and re-post...

Important question, does everyone meet up for breakfast before the match? If so where and when?

There is the Ranchside Cafe right on the corner of Foothill and Osbourne. They open at 7am. If your there first thing and get ordered quickly, you can make it in time but its usually rushed so we don't usually do it match day. After the match, we usually go there for lunch.

Targets and everything are printed and in my truck.

Here is the updated dope sheet with 3 different versions:

Big thanks to everybody for a fun match today!

Congrats to John for a 1st place and Stoopy for being 1st class with a 2nd place on his first match!

Hats off to Mike for running the match, John for the photography, and Nick and Nathan for helping out on the line.

I'll be looking forward to the next one!

Congrats guys, everyone did well and shot safely, hope you all had fun. I think some of the newcomers had a slightly rude awakening about shooting under the pressure of a match, that's part of the game. It usually takes 3 or so matches to "figure out" how it runs and be prepared for it. I know some excellent marksmen finished towards the tail end of the pack, not from lack of skills, but from errors. Now you know why the unofficial club motto is "Don't fuck up." A few suggestions for the future:
1) Read the COF and understand what you need to do. Ask questions if you need to.
2) Have your mags prepped for the next stage.
3) After you shoot a stage, dial your scope back to zero or dial in the next stages dope.
4) Check your dope and confirm it is correct during your prep period
5) Know how to get back to your zero if you get lost on your knobs. If your scope does not have a zero stop, take note of how many moa (or mils) you can turn your elevation turret down from your zero. Write this number on your scope or someplace handy. If you ever get "lost" as to what revolution your knob is at, simply crank it down till it stops, then come back up the amount you have written down. Also, on some scopes you can take a sharpie and black out all the numbers on the turret below your zero giving you a referance point if you get lost.
6) Learn a shooting cadence in your head for typical stage time limits (30, 60, 90 sec, etc.) Most shooters today did not use all their available time and shot too fast. Practice this untill you learn to use all your available time to your advantage without going over.
