Any interest in a long range target (800 yards or so) if I can bring a sponsor (they are a site sponsor at the bottom of the page) on board to supply a Barrett MRAD, ammo, and a camera system for the shoot?

A CW West does somewhat demand some long range targets.
That might be the difference maker. Stretch it out to 500-600 meters. That would be interesting as hell. |

I don't know how far in advance the other CW competitions open the sign up, but I'm thinking we shouldn't open this one up until at least after the new year. Mainly because so much can happen between then and now, I don't want to be adding and removing people as commitments come and go over the course of 5 months. Any advice on this front would be appreciated. I'd also like to know how to approach liability issues. Do participants generally just sign some sore of waiver? Also, when I get out to recon the land in the coming weeks, I wouldn't swear to it, but I'm pretty sure there's a rather large wash running through it. That could make for some punishing obstacle material.

I probably can't make it but I do graphic design and will do the artwork for the shirts or whatever else you want.
I also make knives so as long as I have a few months notice I could probably donate a knife or a tomahawk for prizes. Just shoot me an IM if interested. |

A CW West does somewhat demand some long range targets. That might be the difference maker. Stretch it out to 500-600 meters. That would be interesting as hell. No, make it 800m or more. I would think long range targets would also fall under the "if you can't do it yourself, you get banned" rule. Also, one of the rules is that it has to be ballistically and practically possible with a standard carbine. Part of the whole point of CW is to teach people what they need to work on - both with themselves and equipment. You start going out to 800m, you're basically telling everyone that they need to go buy a precision rifle. Which.. it can be done for under $1,000... sorta... but even then you're pricing a lot of people out of even being able to compete. That's not right. Part of the point is, even if all you have is a shitty AK and some obsolete handgun, you can still run the course. With whatever level of effectiveness it may offer, it's still possible. There's a reason even CW Classic hasn't gone past 300m. However, if you had the equipment and ammo there for everyone to use, so it was fair even if you didn't have a long range rifle to bring... that sounds perfectly fine. I do think you would either have to put the proper range dope on the scope, or else provide a drop/hold table for the rifle/ammo/scope combination you're giving them. Even if the target is at an unknown range and you make them range it (which would be a little dick, but still fair). It can be harsh, so long as it's fair. |

I thought about this some more OP and I'd be down. I've got PTO, friends in Vegas I'd love to drop in on, and a strong desire to vomit peeps and cola

They are asking how many people will be there. |

My first CWAR (not a SCWAR, which I already have) is that little bit closer to completion. Just needs me to install the trigger guard, bolt catch/release, I need a mag release/catch, and I'm waiting on the TA33 to come back in stock at DSG (I'm back ordered). I may also put the DBAL-I2 that I just got from Optics Planet on it, in anticipation of a night run.

I am tentatively in. I would also like to see a night iteration. A LR lane with a provided precision rifle would make a nice addition, perhaps a "bonus" shot to subtract/add time depending on hit/miss.

View Quote If the gun/ammo was supplied this is a good idea. If not though adds too much expense, I want everyone to be able to pick up the carbine they have and have a reasonable expectation of being able to do it, even with just irons etc. Maybe should limit to no more than 50 competitors for this first one, so can gauge how long it takes to run this particular set of obstacles etc. With a limit like that sponsor could probably provide everyone 2-3 shots.
