3-gun scoring w/handgun

Not with a pistol conversion.....

NOPE!!! Thats why Im going 9MM.

And I'm a gamer?

You can bet I'll have a very downloaded .45 though....

I did see a couple people make the mistake of shooting a 9mm carbine at our club and at 200 yards it was ugly. At Atlanta a carbine would probably be good. I suppose at Atlanta someone could use a 9 MM Beretta Storm carbine like that and then a rifle at the wildcat . I suppose thats legal. I use my SBR at Atlanta and my JP at everything else which is basically the same thing other than I am still shooting 223.

4.2 Handgun ammunition must be a minimum of 9x19 or larger
4.3 Rifle Ammunition must be CENTERFIRE and have a minimum bullet diameter of 5.45mm
4.4 Shotgun ammunition must be 20 gauge or larger, #4 lead birdshot or smaller and lead slugs only

 

[jodus]

so by rule 4.3 you can use a 9mm carbine or am i stupid?

 

[jwfuhrman]

Since 9x19(9mm) is bigger than the minimum 5.45mm and it is Centerfire, the answer is yes.

Yes, but be aware that at Wildcat, you may have to hit clay pigeons at 100 yds and maybe out farther than that. It's not all up close hoser stages with the rifle.

 

[jwfuhrman]

And next year plan on stages being a little more tricky. Shooting from awkward positions, at targets that are very small(return of the Newbolds and some custom targets I'm working on).

As I said earlier and what Bill added, you could get away with a carbine at Atlanta but at the wildcat you will be unhappy and frustrated.
