We were just talking about this match today! We had fun last time we shot it.
Is it really going to be no muzzle brakes? If so that is a bummer, as that is all I run...

Great to hear you had a good time last year. :-) It is always good when we get people out to shoot and for a good cause.

Pete has no muzzle brakes in the match bulletin because muzzle brakes can be painful for the guy next to you, especially on Large Frame ARs or big bore bolt guns. I can ask Pete if we can squad you out on the wing with a brake but usually we like to keep everyone close in for range commands.

That would be great. I might be able to bring some other guys with brakes, you can squad is together and we can annoy each other.

Hope to see you there.. :-)

My friend and I are pretty excited about shooting this fun match and it's for a good cause.

A few questions and clarifications please:

Admin & Equipment

Should we register before hand or on the range the day of the match?
May we use a spotting scope?
I have a shooting backpack on a two wheel dolly may I use that to hump my gear around?

CoF questions
200 YDS:
2 shots in 12 seconds and 3 shots in 12 seconds
Do we use a magazine with 2 rounds and another magazine with 3 rounds or do we use just one mag and shoot 2 rnds then the next 12 seconds exposure shoot 3 rnds?
Rapid Fire
Do we use two mags with 5 rnds each?

25 Yds Pistol
Standing/Kneeling
What does "kneeling position on demand" mean?





We are looking forward to your match.

Cheers,
Mick

Admin & Equipment

Should we register before hand or on the range the day of the match? - Day of the match will be fine. This is pretty informal
May we use a spotting scope? - You can use the spotting scope or binos at the 500yd line but the idea is to move forward to 300yd and 200yd with what is on your person. so the scope will have to stay at 500yd
I have a shooting backpack on a two wheel dolly may I use that to hump my gear around? - I guess. Will you be able to hump it from 500-300-200-pits without much issue? We don't drive vehicles down range on this one as we move from line to line. We shoot 500, March to 300 shoot, March to 200 shoot, then march to the pits and relieve the other relay.

CoF questions
200 YDS:
2 shots in 12 seconds and 3 shots in 12 seconds
Do we use a magazine with 2 rounds and another magazine with 3 rounds or do we use just one mag and shoot 2 rnds then the next 12 seconds exposure shoot 3 rnds? No mag change required on this stage so you can just load a mag of 10rds. Just be careful with the muzzle discipline when changing positions. i use full 20/30rd mags just to smoke check my rifles with full mags. Then I just count rounds and drop the mag out and fire the last shot. That way I don't have to jack one out into the dirt. Assuming I remember. :-)
Rapid Fire
Do we use two mags with 5 rnds each? You may do 5 and 5 or full mags and count. Shooters choice.

25 Yds Pistol
Standing/Kneeling
What does "kneeling position on demand" mean? - I believe he just means you can assume the kneeling position once you have fired your 5 rounds standing






Hope that answers all your questions.. Hope to see you out there.

2017 Colorado Rifle Club Toys-4-Tots 2 Gun Match Results

We had a great turn out for a good cause and the weather was beautiful. Not quite the 40 + that Paul gets up at the Cheyenne North Pole but 12 is still a good showing for this match.

This was the first time shooting a “competition” for some of these folks and I really hope everyone had a good time. Pete made up some tasty “polish” chili for Après Shoot and that really hit the spot.

We plan on holding another one of these “2 Gun” matches at CRC in the Spring and a Fall “2 Gun” match at Buffalo Creek.

I wish everyone a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
