Pueblo Tactical Rifle

[Hoser]

Your match staff has been scratching our heads trying to come up with a way to accommodate more shooters. Right now we are limited to 3 berms.

The best fix we can come up with is splitting the match up into a 9:00 start and a 12:00 start. 24 shooter cap, squads of 8.

The morning shooters don't have to worry about teardown, shoot and scoot.

The noon shooters don't have to screw with setting up.

However, the problem with the plan is people willing to help run timers and nooks. If people are not willing to assist with those tasks, we remain stuck where we are.

Let me know your thoughts.

I think this would be good, especially if we can get enough people to help with setup, teardown, and admin stuff.

Yesterday's match ran really smoothly, and a lot of that was down to how many people we had willing to run a nook or a timer. It's really difficult to overstate what a huge help that is, and Hoser and I are really grateful for that help.

Is this match similar to what use to be hosted at CRC last year? Looking for something like that where I can also run my suppressor. I'm really disappointed with how that situation was handled so I don't really want to go back.

Suppressors are allowed and encouraged.

More precision based, know your zero and appropriate hold-over/hold-under from 25 to 300+ yards!
While I borrowed (ok pirated) a lot of Hoser's match ideas for CRC's Action Rifle, we were limited to pistol berms and one rifle length berm. The use of pistol berms dictated a different stage design and many were run-n-gun style. Hoser's match (see post 1 in this thread) typically use Pueblo's rifle berms with steel targets and shooting prone, kneeling, squatting from various locations.

Fun match yesterday. Lots of people came out to play. Thanks to everyone that picked up my slack while Uncle Sam had me in a foreign land.

So far we have had nothing but positive feedback on splitting the match into two. So for the next few months we will run two matches, a 9:00 start and a noon start. 24 shooters per match which will allow us an additional 12 people to shoot this match and get people off the wait list. And no, you can not shoot both matches. If you sign up for both, one of the two entries will be deleted.

Lastly, we had 6 people not show up for yesterdays match. That means 6 people on the wait list couldn't shoot. Please be respectful to your fellow shooters.

Great showing yesterday. With the new match format we were able to accommodate an additional 12 shooters and with the smaller squads things seemed to move much faster. Help with set up and tear down was perfect. Thank you for making it happen.

Remember, Friday night at midnight signups open up for all of Junes matches on Practiscore. https://practiscore.com/clubs/hosers-steel

Took some video if folks want to see the shooting positions. 200 and 300 yd stages only. Fat old guy doesn't run between them either...but still gets winded.

Are suppressors allowed at this match? I know it varies a lot around here.

Not only allowed, they're encouraged.

[GDelena]

I don't think they're advantageous though....not in this match.
