Re: SHWW Group
Bigger steel for us .308 guys!
JK, I shot crappy and that's all there is to it.
The three plates at the KYL stage seamed to slide closer together due to the frame flexibility. Did I imagine that? The yokle safety factor made me nervous a couple times, but what are you gonna do.
Other than that, I thought the match was awesome. The stages were great. Good movement and positional challenges, I liked the time limits.

Re: SHWW Group
all right more condiments for burgers check
better target id check ( i tried wrapping tposts with caution tape but it didn't last/work cones it is i guess)
new kyl rack check
keep the suggestions coming it is invaluable input for the next one.
In april my tenative plan is to try and have 50 shooters 6 or 7 squads. 175-200rifle rounds and 50ish pistol rds. Plus we will have a custom rifle on the table as a prize.

Re: SHWW Group
Scott, not sure if you tried rustoleum or marking paint on the steel but I hear good things about it not flaking as quick. I will give it a whirl and let you know. As for the prize table, a custom Rifle is a sweet prize but I for one would rather see a good grab bag of prizes. So in saying that I will throw a scope on the prize table for the next match, mightn't be great but it will be something that anyone can use, my own way of giving back to the great crowd I get to meet at the matches.

BGE541, that's our Jake, obviously the bolt is on the wrong side but he's just challenging himself or is he? That's the question we often ask ourselves.

Re: SHWW Group
Jake, as you already know I've been blessed with two lefties myself, its just going to cost me more money in rifles in the future although I got one already for them.

Re: SHWW Group
Thanks for the mention Jake and Ill be looking forward to a .280 build for you.
MM509, You might have the 308 class to yourself next time. I think I'm going to make some changes.
As for the match.
It was great keep the awkward positions, running (fast waddle in my case), small and hard to find targets in there. It is stuff like that that make it challenging and fun.
As for the food.
Who cares as long as it was hot when its that cold out.
The prizes.
That is all up to you. The rifle is over the top or maybe even too much. I worry that could make things more serious and less fun. I'm shooting to get away, have fun with good people and relax. I think that if lots money is involved it can take away from it.
I would like to say more but it sound like whining.

Re: SHWW Group
I agree with better target markers even though I'm sure a lot the issue is with me but that dog house stage at the end of day one made it difficult as hell to see the target for sure, Left 24 points on the table there.
Other than that the match was fun as hell and challenging.
JD sorry I left you out on the thanks in the video, The sponsors weren't posted so I just grabbed what I could from here and hoped for the best
Great hanging with you on day 2 !
Marty good of you to offer something for the prize table, You mentioned at the match if everyone has something their not using to bring it and put it out there for people to take home.
Its a great idea.
Prize tables are pretty cool when everyone gets something even if its something simple.

Love the idea of a potluck prize table.

Re: SHWW Group
Scott, IMO, the rifle would be pretty awesome, BUT, I think for the kind of match you run, it would be way better to have 4 other prizes instead of the rifle.
Say-
$700 stock
$700 action
$300 barrel
$300 barrel Job certificate
$100 Pic rail
$100 trigger
You will make it a much better prize table. BUT, that being said, I would love the chance to win a rifle.......Just thinking about the masses and also keeping it fun and relaxed.
I also like the idea of a potluck prize table. Imagine if scott put together say 50 awesome prizes on his own, and then all 40 shooters brought something in the $50-100 range. It would be a win win for everyone

Re: SHWW Group
Here's a good example of how the target looked at the couch commando stage on day 2 when we got there.
We'll play where's waldo and I'll give you a hint...its not the posts in the center of the picture and there is only one target in the picture as one had already been knocked down.
Mind you this is with my camera fully zoomed in on where I think the target is at, I do this sometimes just so I can look at it when I get home to see how difficult it is to see on stages where I can't find it before we start lol.
This is what another set of targets looked like the morning of day one.
Call me crazy but I have a hard time seeing it and I know where its at lol.

Re: SHWW Group
Don't remember that the actual target 33% ipsc I think, it was a real bitch shooting out of the doghouse downhill at them on Saturday, by Sunday afternoon they had taken quite a beaten at least by then I was on the couch.

Re: SHWW Group
Just a teaser. We are in the Very early stages of putting on a match that will be the first of it's kind in the industry.
We are looking at a June time frame, and to say this will test you way outside your comfort zone is an understatement.
The concept for this one has me very excited and it will be very challenging to pull off, but I've dedicated myself and our team to make it happen.
I should have a formal announcement after SHOT SHOW.

How will the match be scored? As in x point for first round hits or just x rounds in x minutes all hits count equal? Haven't shot a match like this yet so I need to figure out how to maximize my points per shot... looks like ill need it against this crew here in Wa! Good sponsor list as well. Thanks.

One point per hit. One bonus point for cleaning a stage. And one bonus point for first round hits. Maybe!

Re: SHWW Group
Well being bored, and having a great expanse out my kitchen window and back door to use, I decided to chronograph some loads @ 13 degrees from my 6x47 Lapua (H4350) and 6.5x47 Lapua (Varget) My last chronograph data was taken at 65 degrees.
The standard deviation/ES increased slightly for both loads. <span style="font-weight: bold">However, </span> with a 50 degree temperature swing, the average velocity with H4350 only dropped 18 fps, and with Varget dropped 22 fps.
I'm pretty happy that my small sample (5 shots each) confirmed what the manufacturer is telling us about the Extreme powder line and its consistency.

Re: SHWW Group
I've been *waiting* for it to actually get 'cold' here... I have a load I worked up with a new powder (2000MR) that I wanted to get a feel for how it behaves over a range of temperatures. Unfortunately the only data points I have so far are @ ~90F (late August), ~70F (mid September), and ~40F (mid November). Thus far... the velocities have been surprisingly consistent (2780-2790fps at all three temps), but I'm curious how it'll behave when/if we ever get down below zero or even single-digit temps.

Re: SHWW Group
Why dont you guys just put your rounds in ice? I love shooting in the cold especially with some humidity in the air so i can watch vapor trails through the scope.
But you can check the results anytime of year by producing artificial enviroments and getting HUGE temp swings, well over 100 degrees F.

Re: SHWW Group
I prefer to let the whole system (gun, ammo, everything) 'soak' at temp for some period of time, at least a couple hours. I don't have recent chrono data to back it up, but my instinct is that cold ammo in a hot barrel is not the ideal indicator of performance. Add in the potential for condensation forming on the casings (seen people blow the ejector clean out of the bolt shooting ammo 'kept on ice')... and I'll pass.

I left the rifle & ammo outside for approximately 1/2 hour before I shot, and while the temperature is warming up slightly, the equipment is still in the "freezer" so to speak.
AtOne, since you finished MUCH higher in the standings last weekend, please feel free to head this way and give me some lessons. I'm picking up an apple bin (aka doghouse) next week hopefully, since you said you SUCK er had problems at target acquisition from same(I left a few points as well!)

Thus far... the velocities have been surprisingly consistent (2780-2790fps at all three temps), but I'm curious how it'll behave when/if we ever get down below zero or even single-digit temps. </div></div>
I'm very curious about this myself,got some 2000MR that I want to work up a new load with and would like to hear your results. Please keeps us posted if you get some cold weather.
Thanks, Mike

Pm inbound.
Guys it looks like Scott put on another great match. It's too bad I had to miss it but I was behind the wheel of a float in our local lighted implement parade. Thanks for the video Atone, nice couch stage. LOL

2-10-13, 7-14-13, 8-18-13, 10-13-13, 11-17-13.
These matches will be hosted by the NCW gun club.
<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="color: #FF0000">You will not need to be a member of the NCW gun club.</span></span>
We will be doing a cash payout at the end of every match.
There will be a prize donated by Precision Tactical at each match to the RO's pick.
The idea behind these match's is to learn and as such there will be thinking involved on the shooters part
The overall series winner will have a paid spot in
the 2014 Findlay Cup.
OH, and Broker and Bigwheels, semi's,long action chambering, and 300 and 'smaller' magnums will be allowed in this series.
A speed limit of 3100 will be one of the very few equipment requirements.
Feel free to call or PM me with any questions.

Missed that part when I read it the first time, Very cool !
Is this year going to take the 3 best finishes again for the overall winner ?
