Will you be squadding so each shooter has a spotter/scorekeeper behind him with a adequate spotting scope to help get him on target with the sighters and to keep his score to turn in to the match officials?

A shooter without a spotter to help is just an exersize in frustration.

I will spot for any shooter that needs it if I can be there that day. I have been working a lot of Saturdays lately......

Shoot....I have another commitment in Tx...would love to attend the next one.

I'd like to try this. Should be enough time for me to get rifle and loads figured out.

I don't have a rifle, but can I come watch? Pretty please?

I really think that I came in to shoot at the tail end of an event you all had last year.

And if anybody wants to stay after and shoot handguns, I'll bring mine along and be game.

Just out of curiosity, why factory ammo only in 2 of the 3 classes??

Only 3 shooters on the line at a time with a RO and a spotting scope calling your hits.

thanks for that answer. can the spotter give you input on your shots beyond just hit or no hit? like your low, right or left, or is that limited to the 5 minute sighter period?

 

[curraheeguns]

I have never done one of these but would like to bring my new DTA SRS and try it out.

That I'm unsure of. Ill find out when I'm back in the shop Wednesday. But I do believe once you're on to the actual match, you are on your own.

I'm kinda curious about that one, too. I can see restricting the Factory class to factory ammo, but in Tactical, why not the usual "Ammunition safe in your rifle"?
