PRS gas gun matches
- Thread starter wyattgtx
- Start date
Gas gun is a PRS division. Any match that is a PRS match you can shoot a gas gun in and be in gas gun division. Just like someone shooting open or tactical.
I totally understand. But there is just a gas gun division. No bolt guns, just gas. None around the area @wyattgtx was asking. I'm sure that is what he meant. But, could be wrong.
He must be confusing something like the Geissele gas gun series with the PRS as I am in the east and never heard of an all gas gun PRS match. In a regular match they only get a few gas guns so not sure they can fill a whole PRS match with just gas guns.
I know that anyone can shoot gas gun in any prs comp. I do see a gas gun division in the prs. If one looks I see it gas gun division. So what am I missing.
I think it’s the OP that is missing something. Sounds like he is confused about the matches.
If it was a PRS match then it was an outlier as that is not the norm. Where was it held?
Sorry for the confusion I meant to put PRS style didn’t specifically have to be PRS. Central Texas.
The series referred to in Tx is likely called the gas gun show

About:
- This is a Rifle only match.
- 8-10 Stages on a one day match. 18-20 Stages for the 2 day Finale.
- Target size is 2-4 MOA, depending on the difficulty of the shooting position. Ex: Prone position, expect 2 MOA.
- A portion of the stages will be positional with some movement (approx 10 yards). A few from the same position on multiple targets. Maybe 1 with a little more movement in it.
- Distance on steel targets will be 200- 700 yards. Come with DOPE out to 1000 for the rare occurrence of that distance.
- Stage round count is +5 in addition to the minimum numbers of rounds to shoot the stage without misses. Ex: If 15 rounds will let you hit all targets with the required number of hits, the rounds allotted for that stage is 15+5= 20 rounds.
- Steels targets will be painted a subtle color (gray, black, etc..) so that competitor equity is the same. The target presentation should be the same for the 1st shooter as it is for the last shooter.
- If targets from 2 or more stages are in the same impact zone, every effort will be made to discern between targets. This could be different shapes, colored backers, target indicator numbers and/or letters.
- Match Fee- $75. This includes a modest lunch and water.
- Cash Pot- Those that want to participate can bring an additional $20 cash to put in a pot during registration. There will be a separate pot for each division. The shooter with the best score in their division (assuming they put in $20) will take home the pot.
- Distances- Match officials will provide distances. Every effort will be exhausted to provide accurate distances. It’s up to competitors to confirm distance prior to shooting (off the clock). No reshoots/score adjustments will be approved for inaccurate distances.

Geissele Gas Gun Series, not sure if it's PRS style. But not around the areas you were looking at.
This is a resource from Sun and Shadow - looks like there's a series in North Dakota, but not the states listed.

edit: Looks like dedicated carbine matches for NoDak are pretty sparse. The list also seems to be updated regularly.
