[Mobius38]

Thanks for another great match! Walk away always learning more and more each time. I can say this at least I am consistently right in the middle.

[Point of Impact]

Had a great time "getting back in the saddle" today guys. Thanks to everyone who made it happen. Placed where I usually place.....in the middle of the pack. (thanks to Solomon pointing out a .2 mil left correction needed in my zero,)

Scoresheet:

[Point of Impact]

^^Hey Randall, I just noticed I got marked for 30 points on stage 10. I got 4 hits on that stage...was keeping score on my COF. No biggie, just good for me mentally when I stay in top 10. thanks again.

[Downrange67]

A sling was left behind, check your stuff.

[robojet]

I think we need a report on Nathan's thumb... Pictures to...

[robojet]

Do u keep these scores for any reason beyond the match? Because #13 should have had 15 points on stage 7 making the total 300 and bumping me up 2 places . It was a typo... 5 points wasn't possible on that stage as it was increments of 15

[snappy]

Bringing a sweet prize for some lucky winner this month! No its not a cooler!

What was it, and I thought it went to the winner of stage 6A?

[Short Action Precision]

Nice Seekins hat. Rays head was to big and Rich and I gave it away so it went to 3rd place Aaron G.

[evo]

Looks like you're getting you're groove back Ray! Good shooting Rich and Arron, sorry I missed it, seemed like a good turn out.

[Treadstone]

A very challenging and fun match! I and several others really enjoyed the hidden target stage. Would like to see more of these!

I'd also love to see some unknown distance targets (size is known) to give us practice ranging using our reticle and doing the calculations under time pressure!

Barricades and sling work is a real weakness for me, so please keep including those kinds of stages!

Congrats to the winners!

[postal]

#2-#5 is really close.....

Good job all.

[Short Action Precision]

I'd also love to see some unknown distance targets (size is known) to give us practice ranging using our reticle and doing the calculations under time pressure!

I think these are hard to do at ASR. The berms give a pretty close guesstamite of distances.

[Nosmas]

Can anything be placed beyond 600?

[Short Action Precision]

Not if they know about it

[shawscar17]

Had a blast yesterday! Thanks to those that helped set up, organized, and run the match. Your hard work is really appreciated. To any veterans or active duty service member, thank you for you service. I will never forget those that made the ultimate sacrifice. Freedom is not free.

[MajorHeadTrauma]

i got the case un stuck

Body sizing in the chamber!

[Treadstone]

I think these are hard to do at ASR. The berms give a pretty close guesstamite of distances.

But perfect for a match out in the desert! We could do a club match away from ASR now and then?

[peerless]

the stage #6 was an unusual one,sure got me puzzled,when i got behind my rifle
to shoot I did not know what I was doing , the only shooter did good was Brad,
when he explained it to some of us on a paper ,it sure clicked what was happening,
I think next time I can do better on stages like that,
thanks Brad and Randall for their innovative course of fires.

[Capnjon]

It had me puzzled too! I can grasp it today having thought about it but I guess my dyslexia kicked in under pressure.

[snappy]

I had nothing to do with the COF, it was all Rich and Randall this time.
I just helped to set up the night before.
It was a nice change for me to just shoot, even though I shot like &%$@#.
I am glad to see new faces on the line, and hope people are learning.

I know the perfect place

I told Brad how I would run that stage if I were shooting.
Looks like my idea worked...

[thegiff]

I got 3 on stage #6, I found a rock that was straight up and used that as my reference. Cool though, cuz the bullets were flying over the cardboard then coming back down to hit the plate that you couldn't see directly since it was behind the cardboard. My first 2 shots missed, so I guessed I was shooting right (I saw a left to right mirage come up) so I edged a little left and started getting hits.

Ray sure shot impressively, he ran away with the points score.

[Gnzrme]

Not if they know about it

Yeah that would be a big NO... They have had 2 fires out beyond 600 from people shooting rocks... yes, it was probably steel jacket/core ammo, but let's not chance it as I have shot rocks and steel with regular copper jacketed bullets and I saw sparks...

[Gnzrme]

Man... I shot like shit yesterday and the hostage targets cost me 30 points and I don't know wtf I was doing on the Defliade stage...Of course after I took Brads advice on adjusting the turrets I was able to hit it...

Still had fun... And who ever pounded those stakes in really sunk them in....

[peerless]

Good thinking Randull,
Thanks Rich.
