In case you're not aware there is a $30 introductory membership for new members, if the form you are looking at doesn't show that, pm me your email and I'll send the latest mailout.
 
Sounds like something I'd definitely enjoy immensely, I get the feeling my hunting rifle and 10X scope may not be up to the task, and probably look a little out of place in that crowd. Too bad

Yep, I spotted the $30 intro membership on page 2. That is why I was asking about any increase for 2015. Thanks.

I'm in the same boat but I'm thinking what the hell. I'm coming out with my .308 Win hunting rig. Loner rifles have been offered, just bring factory ammo.

Seriously thinking "what the hell" and trying out this event as well.

Question: How much of a disadvantage would my single-shot set-up be for this? Has anyone tried this without a magazine setup?

In reading the course of fire, it looks like there's only one stage with a maximum time between target exposures - all the other stages have a minimum time of 5-10 seconds, which should be (almost) enough to reload and get back behind the rifle again, and maybe even get in a breath or two...

Note: the course of fire instructions would benefit from some proofreading - there are a few inconsistencies in the document between the stage descriptions and the procedures for the stage - e.g. Stage 9 - Pick Your Poison: Description is:
"Ten (10) exposure of five (5) seconds",
while the Procedure reads:
"... competitor is to fire one shot per three second exposure for a total of fifteen exposures."

(Not trying to put unpleasant liquids in anyone's cornflakes; just trying to put my way-too-detail-oriented mind to a helpful purpose...)
 
I'm a total newb but I've wanted to do this for a while. I have a pretty good off the shelf rifle and a good enough scope. (Poor choice looking back but it will work) I'm willing to pair up with another new shooter and share the equipment. I'll post back here once I get the Friday booked off and get registered.
 
Anyone on the fence about this - just come out and shoot - it is incredibly fun. As others have said, you will have plenty of help from more experienced shooters. I shot last year and at the match realized I loaded my rounds too long, so I had to single-shot each one. As a dude with one hand. Hah - it was a pain in the ass but I had a great time.

Also - hotel sounds amazing.

The match is run buy volunteer's, and they do a great job. Some of the wording is a little confusing, but when you are on the line Edd makes what to shoot and how many rounds to shoot abundantly clear. If you are making a mistake someone will point you in the right direction and tell you what to shoot. There is lots going on in this shoot, not just every body lining in a line and shooting 15 rounds for score. if you are unsure on the coerce of fire in the match just ask. Just to keep it interesting Edd does change up the coerce (a little)of fire during the match.
 
Am I interpreting the entry form correctly as $125 for 2 days + $20 for Friday = $145 total, or is Friday included in the $125?

Thanks in advance for clarifying.
 
I still only see an entry form for the 2014 match. Is there a new form for 2015 somewhere that I can't see on the website?
