It was the long range rifle stage and had 6 MGM flash targets scattered from 165 yards to 325 yards. There was also two full size iron harry's at 380 yards & 480 yard 30 second bonus target. These targets were all engaged from a platform about 8-10 feet off the ground. There was an RO with binoculars and a spotting scope on scaffolding behind the platfrom watching for hits. There was a ton of confusion as to weather or not the shooter was making hits and the RO was looking at a different target and not calling the hits. A lot of shooters felt that they had shot several targets that never got called hits. So the stage was thrown out on account of fairness to everyone. It was a really cool long range stage it just needed more RO's watching and listening for hits. None of us on the ground could see the target because of the foliage between us and the targets.
All but 2 stages required at least a 20 yard full speed run. The longest run was like 50 yards or so. Those RO's had to run 200+ shooters down that path so I guess they got to the point where they probably felt like strapping the timer on our backs and letting us go.
The running and gunning was pretty awesome. That stage with the door breaches had your runnign so far and so fast that I ran 3-5 steps past the fault line and had to hit the reverse lever.
