January ViMSAR Match
Cold but bright with light winds for this month’s match. A great response to our special AR-15 event, with more shooters for that than the main match. Five stages, all ten rounds. All shooters shot the same course of fire.
The tie breaker, Stage One, started with the grenade pitch and six pistol rounds at a medium 25yd. target. Kneeling behind a barricade, sweep targets at 300, 150, 200 and 300yds. One round each and repeat.
Prone supported on Stage Two, engaging targets at 300 and 220yds. Engage until hit twice, move, and engage until missed once. Repeat.
Alternating targets at 400 and 200yds on Stage Three from sitting supported position.
Sitting unsupported on Stage Four, engaging targets at 300, 150 and 200yds, Nevada Sweep.
Hit twice and move on Stage Five, with targets at 200 and 140yds. Standing position.
Possible high score of 59.
