Campfire.... great! Maybe I’ll bring a tent this time. The truck nap was sub optimal last time. |

Keep these going and I'll make it next time. |

I'm just now able to walk normal again, don't know if I'll attempt a run. Glad to see the crew getting back together. |

Glad to see the crew getting back together. Hope you can make it out, bring the fam if you can. I didn’t do different classes since there are no prizes, but if there is interest we can do adult, <18, night, “stationary”, or whatever else. Just want everyone to come out and have fun but also have to move around and manipulate under a little stress. |

That's pretty cool. At least .22LR is feasible to shoot. Hopefully we'll be able to make it. I knew I should have gotten a holster for my .22 pistol.
I always thought my HK MP5SD-22 would make a fun competition choice. Although with my gimped up spine it's more walk and gun than run and gun lol. |

We will most likely do 3 gun style where you don’t carry the guns with you and just modify the course. Mostly because my main guns are a 22/45 suppressed and 10/22 and no holster We might even stage multiple 22s on a course so you have to figure out new guns ??????? |

Would I be wasting my time to come out to play with a lever action or a bolt gun, what kind of round count are we looking at, and will they be steel target or scored paper?

Roughly how many rounds to complete the course of fire? Only .22 I could shoot is a Colt Woodsman so would I need more mags? Will call CMMG today and see if I can get stuff to build a .22, if I can make I'd want to shoot Night vision. May just come up to visit....left foot and right knee are limiting mobility at the moment

Glad to see Lonestar get these events started again. Thanks G. I've been contemplating getting them going again in the spring but with the ammo situation as it is I think this is a great opportunity for every one to get together.
I'll be there for sign in and any way I can help. I'll also bring a few fire arms and some extra ammo for any one to use. I'll be a plus 2. Let's hope for good weather! See y'all there. Red |

Me and the sis or sis and I....whatever, we'll both be there.
We both have M&P15-22's that would be great but the both have variable scopes on them like 3-7 or similar which I think would be really difficult to use for something like this. I've never done it before but seems like a poor choice. She'll be using her Ruger 10/22 tactical with a Vortex Strikefire and I'll be using my HK/Walther MP5SD-22 with a Vortex Strikefire. It's not nearly as lighweight  but it's very accurate and looks cool.More than willing to let anyone use them if needed. |

The range would be great for a .22 precision match....just saying.
Targets from 50-300yds with minimal walking between the stages. |

for those wondering how formal this is, its pretty informal. so bring what you have, some ammo, be prepared to do some running and some shooting. last match we were using a stopwatch to time, but I've got a shot timer I'll bring.

I switched to a scope for the previous 2 gun matches because a dot wasn't cutting it on the small steel targets. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I'd still like an idea on rounds per stage..i hve plenty of 25 round for my 10/22, but trying to decide if i need to round up more mags for my Woodsman... I’m thinking of trying to do 5 stages and 20 total rounds per stage. Will be mix of rifle and pistol so 10rounders would be fine if you don’t miss. For a total of 100rnds of 22lr complete all stages without misses. Will also do a few stages with “staged” guns, 3 gun style where you run to the firearm, load and shoot. That way we don’t have to deal with holsters and slings for oddball 22s. We will definitely make use of the the large silhouette at 200. e.g. run to pistol barricade and get 2 hits on 5 targets at 20yd, run 50yds to rifle position and get 2 hits on 5 targets from out to 150yd. I’d also like to through in some quick close ones if anyone has cardboard IDPA targets. Everything else will be steel targets. |

The variable power scopes will be just fine as well as RDS and open sights, eyesight dependent. I use a RDS for our centerfire matches and never had an issue, 200yd is easy. I will also be using my walther/HK MP5SD 22, never malfunctions even with bulk ammo. As mentioned before it’s informal and you can switch guns between stages if desired. No issue using a bolt gun for a stage and then AR conversion for another. |

That's nice. I really like the look of the fixed stock and it's sling point. The SD would be awesome if you could actually internally suppress it. Although I imagine it's possible with enough money.
