If you are an IPSC Ont member, it's on the website. If you are not,
As for slugs, I doubt more than five are needed, so bring 10 and you're good to go.
the last few matches have required more than 20 slugs.
Heck one stage alone was 18 slugs last year.

I buy boxes of 25 for $20 they are S&B.
Bought a whole case after the last match.....!!!!
They have a really manageable recoil even for my 15 year old.

I have my CDP Shield but no Black Badge. I am currently shooting IDPA. I'll get to a three gun one of these days.

So how was the first day............
Weather seemed to be good.
How were the ground conditions?

weather was not bad, cool in the morning and very pleasant the rest of the day. no mud.
Mental note, must buy managed recoil slugs next time. 1700 fps slugs not fun to shoot after more than 5 rounds. one stage had 16 slugs. long shotgun stage, have to make sure you have the correct sequence of slugs versus birdshot in the mag tube. And for your enjoyment, a long range (60 yd) shot at a clay on the long range rifle course. good luck on the match...

Well that was a lesson in recoil management!!!
The rifle match was a hoot, although i discovered a clay pigeon at 60 yards was a bit of a challenge for my iron sights. It was agood combination of accuracy and run and gun.
The pistol match was well balanced with some movers and steel, and lots of movement.
The shotgun match was fun, but bloody brutal. 32 slugs over 3 stages!! As Squibload mentions, managed recoil slugs are on my wish list for next time.

What a great day!
EESA sent a contingent of 5 shooters and we had a blast!
One of us was a newbie to 3 gun and I think he might just be hooked!
Thanks to all who made it a typical Great Barrie 3 gun!
As to the slugs.............Lower recoil is certainly a help. My 15 year old son had no problems with the slugs we were using!
I just hope we can get the plans in place for our "special" three gun event some of us were chatting up.

Barrie three gun
Shot the match on Saturday and RO'ed the shotgun stages today. Lots of fun, I would agree that low recoil slugs are the way to go, especially when there are thirty-two required for the shotgun stages.
To Storm and the crew, glad you enjoyed it and good to see you are introducing new shooters to the three gun. I had a good time RO'ing you guys. Hope we can work out the "divorce match" for next year.

P.S. Storm I received your PM and I agree, no intent, just not thinking.
