Anyone here shooting in / have aything to do with the Armed Forces Memorial Match at CRC on May 2-5

[USMC88-93]

Regional NRA High Power and Armed forces "Remember the Brave" Memorial Match

I am probably going to shoot the match up through the 600 yard portion. Just curious if anyone here is shooting in it or has anything to do with it. I am trying to talk myself into the 1000 yard portion but it appears that part is done in teams and I have never shot 1000 yards.

On a side note on the registration/ entrance form it ask ( service rifle / match rifle / tactical rifle) would the Knights Armament SR-25EMC be considered service or tactical for the purposes of the match?

Match information and entrance forum here:

I'd be interested in this match if A) I can get the time off work (doubt it) and B) someone explained the rules. I'd be shooting an M1A service grade (I think it'd be service, as it's definitely not a match rifle).

This will be my third year shooting the match. I enjoy the match and really enjoyer meeting the family's.

The match runs Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I typically shoot only Friday for the XTC match and play with the kids on the weekend.

the Sr-25 will fit in the tac classification as it is not the 20in iron sighted sr-25. Just drop a 1-4 on it and have fun, it will play out to 1000.( be sure to bring a sling,gi web loop sling works fine)

if this is your first time just bring out a mat, pad and pen, spotting scope if you have it, ammo and a chair to sit-in when scoring. Let the match directed know you are new and need assist, they will pair you with someone willing to help.

if you are going and need anything let me know, I'll be happy to assist.

[USMC88-93]

I shoot the Garand Matches and Sporting Clays out there all the time, I want to shoot it with iron sights (no optics). The only thing I do not have is a spotting scope but as I understand it there will be score keepers / spotters behind the line. Is that not correct?

I'll be the guy with the Khaki Unlimited Rubicon Jeep.

Have you shot the 1000 yard day? As I read it they pair you up in teams.

[esaabye]

I sent a PM response but for everyone's benefit, yes there are people marking in the pits and score keepers to record the results. You want the scope at 300 and past to see mirage and your spotters to make wind-age adjustments.

You will want to borrow a scope from someone in the pits to use when you shoot, should not be a problem and do let the match director know so they can hook you up.

I do not think you will see teams, just pairings at 1000.

Just checking one more time on anyone participating.

This turtle walked directly though a targets impact zone during a string of rapid fire and had rounds impacting within inches of him. I dont know what to say about the ground hog.

Yes, the "crossfire onto target 5 and shoot 10 extra rounds in one of the rapid fire strings" problem child of the day. If your there tomorrow say hi or if you can deal with a novice put me in your squad I have no spotting scope. I also filmed down there so you are probably in one of the videos I have pulling targets unless you were shooting while I was down there.

[Hoser]

I will be shooting the Dietz and Reidel Team (600 and 1,000 yard) matches Sunday.

[esaabye]

I will not be able to attend the rest of the weekend, today was my kitchen pass. To bad, getting my ass kicked by Hoser would be fun as well.

What happen with the 18 rounds, did you load 10 and 10 or fire 4 mags?

My head was stuck in Garand Match mode. "With a magazine of 2 and 8 load" however in my haste to be ready and go with the flow I wasn't thinking. My head was saying "Ok I have two strings of 10 here" and not as it should have been "I have two SEPARATE strings of 10 here" On a side note I had 20 well placed rounds off in 70 seconds and had to take the 10 lowest.

[USMC88-93]

14 minutes of pulling targets in the Butts, 4 separate rapid fire strings.

Good times yesterday.

Good people and tough conditions to shoot in.

Visiting with Mrs and Mr Dietz for a while was nice. She did a bunch of shooting with a 338 Lapua at the 1,000 yard line.

[USMC88-93]

Did you see this one from yesterday

Wasn't me it was an active duty army guy out of Ft Carson and probably an new National record for Service personnel. I believe he was shooting 6mm Dasher.

[USMC88-93]

At least I can blame the wind for some of my scores.
