Re: Puget Sound Area Shooter's Group
Oh. Duh!!! I wouldn't mind doing those if I could use my own rifle. But the ranges there kinda prohibit that. I totally understand. Let me know when you guys get to stretch the range out, & I'll see if I can get to a few of them.

Just a heads up for the new people here, The Findlay Cup is a fun match with great stages, but it is for non-magnum bolt action only rifles. Again, it's a fun match and limited spacing so be sure to set a notification for registration as it normally fills up quickly.

I was still under the impression that magnums were "frowned apon" at this match. And I fully understand that given the ranges used, so I'll keep sitting this one out, til there is an opportunity for longer ranges, where my rifle can shine.
Thanks Broker.

Re: Puget Sound Area Shooter's Group
Big wheels,
You are welcome to use one of my rifles if you just want to come out and get some trigger time. I just loaded up some ammo, so I can cover that for you, and will even generate the dope charts for you. I sure understand wanting to use your own rifle though..If you are interested, call me and I will let you know about the various choices.

Don't forget the monthly match at The Upper Nisqually Sportsman's Club is this Saturday. New shooters there's a 1x orientation that starts at 0830, and the match begins at 1000. If you have any questions please feel free to contact Unknown or my self here on the hide. This is a great opportunity for new shooters to meet others in the area as well as the chance to observe and handle different equipment that's not often found in your local gun shops.

Re: Puget Sound Area Shooter's Group
Hello everyone,
Just got back from the Practical Rifle shoot in The Upper Nisqually Sportsman's Club. Everyone had a blast ringing steel out to 500+ yards! It was a nice balmy morning in western Washington, I can finally feel my toes, but I took a few shots with my camara, and don't ask me to list everyones names, as I can barely remember my own sometimes!

They interviewed several people there, didn't interject any opinoins, & only interviewed (found) 2 people who were against it because it was somhow demeaning to MLK having it on "his" weekend. Shocking!!!

Re: Puget Sound Area Shooter's Group
Silverbullet great pics !
Great seeing you all and meeting some of you for the first time and as usual it was challenging once again showing what I need to work on to be a better competitor.
Running a new Savage .308 in an accustock really didn't do me any favors but even knowing that I still need barricade work without a doubt lol.
Unknown the changes you made to how the match was run worked fantastic and was appreciated for sure !

Re: Puget Sound Area Shooter's Group
I finally got around to crunching numbers from yesterday's match, and here is the breakdown. TIMES ARE ONLY LISTED WHERE THEY BREAK A TIE. With the exception of the cold bore stage, time/round limits for the stages was 90 seconds/15 rounds. Various methods of making shooters load, reload, load loose rounds and so on were used throughout the match.
Bolt guns: Semi-auto
Kevin 20 points 258.56 seconds Anton 21 points 247.91 seconds
Ryan 16 points 256.55 seconds Nick 16 points 240.02 seconds
Eric 15 points 254.60 seconds
Jason 8 points 250.52 seconds
Mike 5 points 263.60 seconds
Aaron 4 points 247.74 seconds
Stage 1: targets were actually 94 yards from the firing line. Size of the scoring diamonds were:
1 point: 3 inches on the long axis, 2 inches across the short way
2 point: 1 3/8 inch long axis, 1 inch across the short way
3 point: 1/2 inch across the long axis, 5/16 acoss the short way
There were 15 points possible, and alot of people ended up shooting on someone else's target. The rules laid out prior to the shoot were that in any cases of targets having more than 5 shots, we will take the 5 best shots on the target. Many people (myself included) were lucky enough when some generous soul gave us some extra points. About 25% of the targets had extra hits on them.
Stage 1:
Kevin 10
Ryan 9
Anton 7
Eric 6
Nick 5
Aaron 3
MIke 2
Jason 1
Stage 2: Barricade stage. 4 points possible from each end of the barricade for a total of 8 points in the stage. Actual distance to the 6 inch squares was 94 yards, to the 5.5x8.5 rectangles 202 yards.

Stage 3: Unsupported seated. The hits tell the whole story about what I (and maybe a few others) will be working on between now and the next match. Distances were 202 yards to the 8 inch round, 301 yards to the 8 inch round and 10 inch round, and 318 yards to the 50% IPSC target.

Stage 4. Actual distances to targets were 370 and 426 yards to the 50% IPSC targets, and 497 and 523 to the 66% IPSC targets. Although there was barely enough wind to move the smoke coming out of a nearby chimney. it was enough to require holding off about half way between center and the edge of the 523 yard target if you wanted to hit it.

All the new shooters were really great people to have attend the match. Good shooters, and all 'round great guys to be out shooting with. We hope they will return. If there are any technical, tactical, tips, loading data, or other ideas we can share to help you out, email any one of us, and I'm certain that anyone will be pleased to help with DOPE charts, suggestions about gear, loading, and just about anything else to make you feel welcome. I wasn't shy about asking someone about loading info from quickload, and it was a big help. (thanks again Attherange).
Broker, and I are already working on stages for the next match. Cot shoot will be one of the stages being perfected. Unless there are objections from other shooters, I would like to include more seated stages with easier to hit targets..at least until it gets a little bit easier to hit them.
See you all next time.
MATCHES ARE ALWAYS ON THE 3RD SATURDAY OF THE MONTH. ORIENTATION STARTS AT 8:30am, MATCH STARTS AT 10am.
I finally got around to crunching numbers from yesterday's match, and here is the breakdown. TIMES ARE ONLY LISTED WHERE THEY BREAK A TIE. With the exception of the cold bore stage, time/round limits for the stages was 90 seconds/15 rounds. Various methods of making shooters load, reload, load loose rounds and so on were used throughout the match.
Bolt guns: Semi-auto
Kevin 20 points 258.56 seconds Anton 21 points 247.91 seconds
Ryan 16 points 256.55 seconds Nick 16 points 240.02 seconds
Eric 15 points 254.60 seconds
Jason 8 points 250.52 seconds
Mike 5 points 263.60 seconds
Aaron 4 points 247.74 seconds
Stage 1: targets were actually 94 yards from the firing line. Size of the scoring diamonds were:
1 point: 3 inches on the long axis, 2 inches across the short way
2 point: 1 3/8 inch long axis, 1 inch across the short way
3 point: 1/2 inch across the long axis, 5/16 acoss the short way
There were 15 points possible, and alot of people ended up shooting on someone else's target. The rules laid out prior to the shoot were that in any cases of targets having more than 5 shots, we will take the 5 best shots on the target. Many people (myself included) were lucky enough when some generous soul gave us some extra points. About 25% of the targets had extra hits on them.
Stage 1:
Kevin 10
Ryan 9
Anton 7
Eric 6
Nick 5
Aaron 3
MIke 2
Jason 1
Stage 2: Barricade stage. 4 points possible from each end of the barricade for a total of 8 points in the stage. Actual distance to the 6 inch squares was 94 yards, to the 5.5x8.5 rectangles 202 yards.

<span style="font-size: 14pt">There's 1 month left until Jake's match. I figure we have the next UNSC match between now and then for a train up, but we should have an Acme outing between now and then to work the distances beyond 700 and further our dope. Who's interested and what dates work for you so I can arrange it? I'll bring my barricade and roof top so we can get some practice finding the sweet spots on positions. Almost like a train up... but without professional teachers... or a mock course... and free... lol</span>

Re: Puget Sound Area Shooter's Group
I'm not shooting match's this year but would be up for a day at Acme. Sundays would be best for me in the short term, may be tied up for the next few Saturdays running my middle son to wheelchair rugby practice. If Sundays don't work for you guys to practice, no big deal.

You're in luck. Looks like the snow has melted off up there in the last week.

Re: Puget Sound Area Shooter's Group
Sunday looks like the best day right now... But that may well change in the next few days. It's supposed to rain tomorrow, so it might just snow up there again too. You never know.

It's an easy way to make our voice's heard. I used the Ruger website along with the many other ways to got our message out. I almost hate to admit I'm on Facebook but I posted the link there to try and get my friends to act also. We need to mention it to people in our daily lives too, I was at a wheelchair rugby tournament with my son this last weekend and talked to some of the other players to use it to voice their opinions.

Re: Puget Sound Area Shooter's Group
I checked my email right after my last post in the SHWW thread and had and email from one of my state reps. Jason Overstreet. I believe we need to press all of our state reps. and the Governor to support this bill! Here a copy of the body of the email.
Hello Michael,
The unspeakably tragic events in Newtown and other locations around the country continue to make the case that more freedom, allowing the individual to protect themselves and those around them, is needed—not less. To believe that a law, such as a gun-free zone or ban on modern sporting rifles will protect innocents from those intent on doing great harm to them, is to fail to acknowledge that Connecticut has both. I will stand firmly against any encroachment on the law abiding citizen’s right to keep and bear arms. I swore an oath to do so.
Because I have taken an oath to ensure that the right to bear arms “shall not be impaired…” or “infringed,” I have co-sponsored HB 1371, The Washington State Firearms Freedom Act of 2013. This bill respects and solidifies the law abiding citizen’s U.S. and Washington State constitutional rights under both the second amendment and Article 1, Section 24, respectively.
The Washington State Firearms Freedom Act has four components:
The federal government would have no jurisdiction over firearms and ammunition that are produced and that remain exclusively within the boundaries of the State of Washington.
During the continuance of any state of emergency, when individual protection is needed most, neither the governor nor any governmental entity, or political subdivision of the state shall impose any restriction on the possession, transfer, sale, transport, storage, display or use of firearms or ammunition that is otherwise authorized or guaranteed by law.
Makes unenforceable any federal law, rule, regulation or order created after January 1, 2013 intended to ban or restrict ownership of a semi-automatic firearm or any magazine of a firearm, or that requires any firearm, magazine, or other firearm accessory to be registered in any manner.
Creates penalties for the violation of certain provisions.
Please show your support of the individual citizen’s constitutional right to keep and bear arms by contacting all members of the Washington State Legislature and asking them to stand for freedom by supporting this bill.
Persevero,
Jason Overstreet, Representative (42nd - LD)
Washington State House of Representatives

Re: Puget Sound Area Shooter's Group
I live over in Brownsville. There's not much locally yet. I've been scouting areas and still haven't found one that's 100% legal to shoot on where we can get that distance. I'll pm you my info and I can go over areas with you.
