I take it that this is at Steel City E range? I've never shot long range competitions up there, just tactical rifle. Maybe it's about time...

I'm sorry, I'm not trying to ruffle any feathers. Sometimes I go and watch matches. Usually the calendar will say it's cancelled, like other cancellations on the event calendar. If I hadn't seen this post, like other people who don't visit SH, I would have traveled to the match based on the BGTC calendar.

My apologies.

hey css thanks for the negative remark, it was really helpful! i am sure everyone who has followed this thread will now feel more informed. by the way our organization has 1,000 members and all website work is done by volunteers. are you even a member? suggestion..., don't shoot the match, we've been doing great filling the roster each month for the past 3+ years without this kind of nonsense, sincerely the match director

My remarks were not intended to be negative about the club or the match.
I was just saying the website is not up to date. Don't rely on it for up to the minute info.

I apologies my remarks came accross as derogatory.
