We had a really solid set up crew today. Done in record time. Thanks so much for everyone that shows up early to make it happen.
And a huge thanks to those that made it happen while Uncle Sam had me out of town.

For those shooting the Colorado State Tactical Rifle Championship next weekend, set up starts Friday at dawn. Come one come all. Lots of stuff on the prize table from Thunderbeast, Traust, Accufire Optics and Burris Optics.
We had a ton of help with everything today. Thanks so much for making it happen.
We also raised a ton of $$$ for Deputy Peerys family. Thanks so much. It means a lot.
See some of you next Sunday for the AR match.

Incredible weather today. Thanks to everyone that came out to make it happen.
I really appreciate everyone helping out with everything.
Huge thanks to Zach Olson that stayed on the spotting scope all day. He made things a lot easier on us all.

Kneeling behind a bench and only using a single bag (no bipod) for support is tough. These two rocked it.

Fun times today and a very tough position of the day. And the weather was really nice.
Thank you to everyone that came out to help set things up. We got it all done in no time at all and we were able to start shooting right at 8:00.
Huge thanks to Bobby for running the spotting scope all day.

See you all next month and some of you next Sunday at the rimfire precision match. There is a couple slots left if you wanna come play.
Forgot to mention that this months match is full. But the range did get some snow. Hopefully it will melt off and not turn to mud...
Congrats to Tim K. You are the man ,At least for the day.Quote:

We had awesome help getting things set up today. Huge thanks to everyone that comes out early so we have a match to shoot.
Many thanks to Zach Olson for spotting most all day while MB beat up on us.
There is still some room in this Saturdays (22 April) rimfire match. However both Sundays Tactical Rifle matches are full with plenty of people on the wait lists.

See you all next month.
You say the words "Gas Gun at 600 yards" and everyone gets scared.
Grab a rifle, gasser or bolt gun, and get out there.
If it was easy, girls could do it.
Giggle
With all the rain this past 10-12 days it didnt take long for tonights unexpected downpour to turn the range into a swamp.
Cancel.
Next month will again be Semi-auto Sunday where antique turn bolt guns are tolerated and modern self loading rifles reign supreme.
I had a couple slots open up for this Sundays match.
Hope to see you there.

Lots of fun today. Most everyone showed up with a (SA) gas gun.

One of the shooting positions is shooting off a bench. However, you do not get to use a bipod, a chair or anything like that. Just you, your rifle and a single bag. Large or small bag, no matter. It is actually kind of awkward. And when shooting at targets out to 600 yards that might be 10-12 inch diameter steel targets it isnt easy.
Most people shot small frame ARs like 223 guns although a few guys brought their 6.5 Creedmore and 308s out to play. In the end, the 6 ARC and 6 Grendel came out on top. And lot of people used a can which makes everyone happy.

With the semi auto match being a huge hit, one shooter had an idea for another once a year match.
Suppressor only and subsonic only match. Still playing with details, but guessing it will only go out to 300 yards.
5 targets, big to small. Guessing a full size IPSC down to a 6-8 inch diamond. Maybe a bonus target off to the side for anyone that shoots a string clean.
Right now I am looking at December of January sometime.
Let me know your thoughts and or ideas.
I have had several shooters over the years ask for a Suppressor Only match, kind of like the Quiet Riot in Utah.
It took some head scratching on how to do this and make it different enough to be a thing.
After our hugely successful semi auto only match in June, we came up with a plan.
Suppressor and Subsonic ammo match.
You have to use a can and shoot subs.
Nothing but steel targets at 300 yards. Various shapes and sizes. 5 stages and 50 rounds total.
Being subs only, the targets will be pretty large by normal bolt gun standards.
I will have loaner gear avail. Pretty much Thunderbeast suppressors and Accuracy International rifles. But you have to pay for my reloading components.
We will be doing this in January to give you some time to work up an accurate and quiet load.

Sounds like fun. I'll try to make my .260 subsonic.
Fun times today. Nice steady winds most all day until the last stage, and then it caught most everyone off guard.
Only a few more weeks left on the Wednesday afternoon steel matches.
Next weekend is busy with rimfire on Saturday and Tactical Rifle on Sunday. Hope to see you then.

Good times today. Thanks for all the help with everything.
Huge thanks to Ditt for manning the spotting scope all day even though he didnt have to.

Next Sunday is the annual AK vs AR match.
The January 600 yard match will be held on the 300 yard range and will be a suppressor and silencer only match. I will have loner guns avail.
Thank you Bill.. [Beer]
Paul brought his skid steer down and we now have a target at 500 yards. The targets at 600 yards also got moved so set up and tear down got easier.
Still some room left for this Sundays match.
This months match is open. With the Ft Carson range being closed for rifle shooting you might want to get signed up soon or you will be stuck on the wait list.
Everything is set for this months semi auto "Mad Minute" match. The emphasis is semi autos, but bolt guns can play also.
Please keep in mind that Sunday is Fathers Day and you might want to verify with your other half that you are allowed to have the morning off to play with the other kids in Pueblo.
Set up starts at 7:00, the new shooter certification starts at 8:00 and the match will start around 9:15-9:30. Its going to be a scorcher, so the sooner we can start the sooner we can beat the heat.
See you Sunday.
