Just to clarify, I believe the match at Creekside the end of Feb is an AR Platform Sniper match, not a carbine/cqb type match.

Any others around Ft. Benning?
Are there any good places to look online or key words to search for?
I am looking around for good local (driving) tactical long range competitions now.

Here's some info on the next Hardrock match posted by DocB.

It is about 40 +/- min. or so west of Phenix City near Society Hill, AL. That's the closest to Ft. Benning I am aware of.

There is a thread up right now about a 600yd F-class at cool acres sporting camp. I have shot there some, its lots of fun and a good group of guys.

Re: Any match's in Georgia?
I sent a PM to the guy who host the cool acres shoot asking for a little info. Just waiting for a reply, and hope to go this upcoming weekend.

Has anyone shot in the matches at gun site hills near athens? I have been over there just to shoot but I would like to compete in some matches. I am shooting a semi auto .308 ar that I would like to shoot, but I don't know if the chief would let me compete with that.

PM, Ed Baker, I believe he's shot some over there.
My sidekick and I plan on shooting a few there this year.

Re: Any match's in Georgia?
There is a sniper challenge at Creekside Firing Range this Saturday 4-2-11. Open to any calibers up to 300 win mag. Round count will be 50-60. A spotter will come in handy but if you don't have one the match director will partner you with someone. Always a lot of fun and a good group of shooters.

Re: Any match's in Georgia?
I will have to second again what was said about Creekside....a great bunch of guys to shoot with and it will be challenging. I wish I could make the this week, but my little girls birthday takes first place.

Re: Any match's in Georgia?
Looks like I am going to be able to make the match at creekside tomorrow.
However, I have never shot any long range matches and I'm not sure what to expect. I have shot my rifle out to 650yds gettting good zero's, but will this match be something a first timer will enjoy?
Neither myself nor the spotter I am bringing along are experienced in the type of shooting I expect tomorrow.
