9mm Bolt Action Rifle - Looking for people with experience with the manufacturer (Curtis Tactical)

Come down for some R&D on achievable target sizes and necessary reactivity once we get a few of these setups built. We used to do 22lr matches out to 400 or so.



I'll be training with a six pack of group tighteners, too, but I can't be drinking when I'm at the actual range. Company policy.
I could probably be convinced to deliver the conversion kit for a little training work time like that.

You may be delivering more than one. Once you have pricing and details, one or two of the 07s I know may want em. And I haven't even mentioned it to my shooting friends yet.

From the match perspective, I'm mainly curious about the target sizes, hanger types, and plate thicknesses that will be optimal. If there's sufficient crossover with what I know about .22lr targets then it might be possible to run them simultaneously on the same COF.

Shoot me a PM and we can figure out logistics.

It appears you ahve the same PM issue that @faylix had earlier today

It's better for me than using messages on SH if you don't mind.

Ok so let’s brainstorm and codify the stage:
  1. Stage is set in a 1970s single-cab pickup (rusty) that is idling with cherry bomb pipes emitting oily exhaust cloud. Competitor has just seen local rake jump out of daughter’s bedroom window sans pants.
  2. Shooter must wear Joe Dirt wig (unless judge deems natural mullet acceptable). Style pts awarded for each of the following:
    • +5 natural wispy prepubescent mustache
    • +3 natural chops
    • +3 natural handlebar mustache
    • +5 dangling lit cig butt from lips
    • +7 Copenhagen
    • +50 wearing Uncle Jesse overalls
    • -10 if any natural hair is well-groomed
    • -50 soul patch
    • +150 if MD can smell competitor from outside truck
  3. Shooter must pick from a variety 8 track tapes to play in said pickup at volume 11
    • -100 if Elton John
  4. Stage start: Empty beer can throw through rear pickup cab slider window
    • +2 if can is first crushed on forehead
  5. Point and yell insult at daughter’s boyfriend out slider window
    • scoring at MD discretion, but note creativity & audience reaction
    • Immediate DQ’d if skipped and tossed in pig slop
  6. Retrieve rifle from rear window mount
  7. Load rifle
    • +10 difficulty pts per/rd if round loaded is scooped up from floorboards
  8. While shooting out rear window
    • +1 removing shirt in anger
    • +5 if shirt is torn off
    • +3 profuse swearing (per word)
    • +5 pausing to rev cherry bombs & mash horn
    • +5 any hat thrown out any window
    • +15 pausing to get on CB to roust Cooter out of bed to help
    • +20 plumber’s crack visible
  9. Scoring for 10 rds total
    • +5 each A-zone hit = butt of boyfriend silhouette
    • -10 if anywhere but A-zone
    • DQ’d if daughter silhouette hit
    • +2 each round that goes through tailgate
Remember lads, train with full beers…because “weight training”.

Ok. I laughed so hard that I damn near spilled a half empty beer.

If I am the md, I need to dress as Jerry springer for authenticity. It's gonna be methed up.
