TEAM SNIPER MATCH LAYOUT (edmonton area)

If Every Shooter Could Try To Bring The Exact Amount Of Money For The Entrance Fee That Would Be Great Cause I Wont Have Alot Of Change. And If U Dont Ill Keep It As A Tip
 
Maybe once everyone gets out to the match, we can all vote fabourably on cutting the allowed time to engage targets in half. Maybe all of these seasoned shooters won't have a problem taking out 15 targets in 8 or even 5 minutes. We could have this whole shoot done by lunch. What do ya say???

pfft. one round every third breath. The non-shooting breaths are pauses to hear a ding. lol
 
Any results yet Mutt-Roc?

Any cold clean bore 1 shot 700M kills?

How did 40-G and Speedloader Eddie do?
Raw, raw, go go, knock 'em down boys, you Sask sheep f*ucker's you!! My moneys on these guys, seeing their from Flatland Sask. and I know these guys well, really well.

Airborn69 wish I was there too, but duty called. Went to Nokomis instead today. Started with flagging the range around 10am, then de-stoned the berm shot fall area, had lunch, then Re-roped all 16 flag poles, but 4 poles, we ran out of rope. Around 3pm I fire formed 48 brass at 600M on a 300M target, wind was from 11am with swings to 12pm and snap backs to 11pm, followed by a full value 9 am at 25-30 km or so in speed.... then back to the 11am... Nokomis winds... Finished about 5 pm or so. Sunday is the Open House at Nokomis. Range goes bermed to 1200 yds! (300M - rest in yds 400,500,600,800,900,1000,1100 and 1200)

Glock did real well in the cold bore shot part, I think a couple others also did well, hard to tell as I was spotting for Glock at the time.

The boys from Saskabush did REAL well overall.
We won't talk about my performance, how so many bullets could miss that many targets, eludes me:eek:
The real winner here was Mutt however. His shooting maybe did not shine nearly as brightly as his shoot did. A GREAT job of arranging, putting it together and making it work. Hard to shoot to win and still keep a winning shoot happening.
The real looser was the Gnome, it sucked to be him!!

I believe all parties had a great time, was nice to compare notes and yak with other people who are into the same type of shooting.
Definately a GREAT shoot, for those who missed it, you really did miss an event. Now if only Mutt could get the weather to smarten up there.....:cool:
 
FIRST PLACE-DIRT DOGS
SECOND PLACE-REGULATORS
THIRD PLACE-40 G BANDITS
FOURTH PLACE-ATR
FIFTH PLACE- NAUGHTY DOGS

i could not be happier with the way the shoot went this time around everyone seemed to have a great time and really enjoyed the layout. i have to thank a few ppl. DAVE42/GEORGE/TROY all helped out so much with the setup of the targets and the resetting and scoring. HUGE THANX to DAVE42 for lending us his quads and hauling all the targets from my place to the range. also STEVESUMMIT for bringing his welding truck out and trimming up one of the mantargets. and just a big thankyou to all the shooters that attended just a great group of ppl all around(EVEN THOSE SASK SHEEP F*CKERS ARE SOME PRETTY COOL DUDES) as for myself i forgot the canopener so i guess ill save my can of whoopa$$ for the next shoot which will go down sometime in august. please post ur pics of the shoot if u have em.THANX FOR THE SUPPORT


MUTT
 
I'm so very impressed at how much work Mutt went through to put this whole shoot together, I think for the next shoot, we at ATR will have to add prizes as well. For those of you that couldn't make it, this is the event to come to in August. It was, in my books, top shelf. There was a competitive spirit to the contestants, but there was also a lot of cheering for each other as well and that is awesome to see. Mutt and everyone he mentioned really needs a big round of applause. I appologize for not bringing my camera and making sure it was well documented, so please post all pics or links to video taken because everyone deserves to see what a visionary's idea of a sniper match should be.
 
It was indeed an awesome setup and competition. Thanks to Mutt and helpers and sponsors. We expected to come last and didn't (10th) which was a victory in itself, considering I hadn't shot in a month and only first shot a center fire rifle for the first time in my life (44 then 45 now) last fall. And I think we missed, between the 2 of us, probably 10 targets by the grand total of a foot inclusive lol.

Looking forward to the next one! Also forgot my camera, but there were lots of cameras out there, let's see the pics.
 
Well, the 40-G Bandits arrived home in one piece.
Mutt, one awesome shoot, great set up, great targets, obviously a lot of hard work on your part. Thanks for the invitation to come out and meet and shoot :sniper:with a great bunch of guys and gal. Lots of nice rigs and people. I was waiting all day though to see you Alberta boys roll that would have been interesting to watch. HE!HE!HE! If you wouldn't mind, we'd like to be invited to the next one in Aug.

Here are some pics from the day

I apologize for not mentioning the Gnome :redface:, he was a very good sportsman and he took the biggest hit:runaway:, and it was an awesome hit. I was watching very closely and I'm sure that there must have been around 14-16 shooter on the line :sniper: and almost everyone shot at the same time. :sniper::sniper::sniper::sniper: My guess would be that all the rounds landed in a 3/4 to 1 MOA group size on the poor thing :eek:.
Someone make sure to catch another one for the next shoot.:dancingbanana::dancingbanana:
Thanks everyone for a great time, all the slagging included, a little competive spirt never hurt anyone but the Gnome. :D
Mutt I'll let you know when we plan our drillers match out here and you can come and give us that can of stuff you offered, I'll even make sure I have a can opener ready for you. Everyone else is invited to come out for it as well.
Again, a BIG THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO HELP MUTT WITH THE SHOOT, IT WAS GREAT
 
. I was waiting all day though to see you Alberta boys roll that would have been interesting to watch. HE!HE!HE!

i dunno how u count in sask but here in alberta first and second come before third. ha ha ha ha
thanks for travelling 7 hours to the shoot i appreciate it and all the other teams that travelled from fort mac and calgary it good to see and let me know im doing somthing right.


mutt
 
Ok, my back is screwed.:mad: Thanks Mutt.

Well it might have been a bit of work lugging over 2000 pounds of steel targets around for the last three days but worth it none the less.

There is no question in my mind this is a truly a one of a kind event. 100% reactive targets (especially the gnome). It will be hard to ever shoot another paper target at long range and wonder afterwards what the outcome was.:confused: With steel targets, if you hit it, you know right away.

Mutt, like you have not heard it enough but what the heck, one more time, THE SHOOT KICKED ASS.:cool:

I'd like to think it was a little bit competitive, but no one was being a d!ck about it, in fact I saw a lot of teams helping each other out before and during the shoot.


OK, I didn't take a lot of pics but here's what I've got.

Having a little fun setting up the targets of Friday.

This is the 500m berm. The chest plates in the wooden man targets worked great. I don't think any of them went down unless hit in the plate, and there were plenty of hits on the plywood.
Dsc06901a.jpg



Here's the 600m berm. Very cool. The engine blocks were a b!tch if you missed, cause unless your spotter caught the bullet wake there was no way to see the bullet impact behind the truck. Same thing with a low miss on the driver.

The next few pics are a few of the relays and different shooting positions.

Here's the missing pic from HPBT's post. Kind of hard to take a picture when you’re the guy standing up there.
Dsc06904a.jpg



Last but not least is the gnome. Glock took this pic with my camera so I'm not sure but I think this is all he could find of it after the firing squad. That many guns going off at once is scary. I had plugs in and my hands over my ears as I watched through a spotting scope, yet I could still feel the shock wave going through me. Still better than standing next to the gnome though. Thanks for bringing the little B@$t@rd out Jim. That was fun.

Again thanks to Mutt as well as all the others that helped out and of course a big thanks to all the great people who came out to shoot.



Dave


Oh ya, LRC, you do realize that I had all the targets in my GM and on the trailer when I got a little stuck and needed a slight nudge from your truck. Good thing no pictures were taken, just cause it's a "Dripin' Oil, Dropin' Grease Everywhere" truck, I wouldn't want it to go to your head.:D

In all seriousness though, thanks for the help and I think I still have your sling. I'll make sure you get it back at the next shoot if I don't see you before then.

Just got home!! Just want to say quickly great shoot Mutt and an outstanding group of guy's. Im looking forward to the next match. I will post pic's when I get a chance.

Dave don't worry about the nudge....all Chevy's need it now and again and Im more than happy to pull your truck out of the mud with all of the gongs and any other things you may have in the back. No load to small for a dodge!!;):D
