Welcome to 2019 and a new year of shooting! The day started chilly but turned nice and the competition is already strong. Welcome to new shooters Jim R and Joel F, we hope to see you back next month.

Congratulations to Jack L and Mac M for winning the #2 bonus and to Jack L for winning the pistol side match. Nice shooting guys!  

This was the fifth match of our season.  This was a Subgun and Rifle Match. We got lucky again with the weather as it was an absolutely beautiful day with sunny skies and no wind. We had a large turnout so there was no team event. The shooter started with a loaded Rifle and had to take out a set of dinger and paper targets in a sweep. He then moved to another position and took our another set of steel dingers in a Nevada sweep. Moving to another position he then took on a set of knockdowns and dingers. The range was reset for the second run but a different shooting sequence was required on the first stage. Don’t forget to check out and register on our website at www.vegasshooters.net for updates and photos. The next match will be on 2/10/19 and will be our annual St. Valentines day Thompson match. There will be a special class for those Choppers so dust off those Chicago typewriters and bring them out. See you then.      

Bright with very light winds for this month’s match. Five stages, all ten rounds. Snipers shot the same course of fire unless otherwise stated.

A hostage scenario on Stage One, engaging a single 300yd. target. Minus points for hitting hostage. From prone supported position.

Alternating targets at 400 and 200yds. on Stage Two, from sitting supported position. Bonus points for all hits on the far target.

A shooter’s choice on Stage Three, between a medium and large 300yd. target, alternating with a smaller 150yd. target. Bonus points for all hits on the smaller 300yd. target. Sitting unsupported position.

A ‘shoot-til-you-hit, shoot-til-you-miss’ scenario on Stage Four, with targets at 225 and 175yds. From standing position. Sitting unsupported for snipers.

The tie breaker, Stage Five, started with the grenade pitch and then six pistol rounds at a tall, skinny 30yd. target. Then from any unsupported position, engage targets at 220, 160 and 120yds, Nevada Sweep.

Possible high score of 69.
