June Practical Rifle Match

[Snyperc]

Sorry for the late notice.
This Saturday, June 6, is the regularly scheduled Practical Rifle Match at Oil Capital. Sign in will begin at 0900, walk through will commence at 1000 and we should be runnin and gunnin by 1030. Cost is $12 for non-Oil Capital members. Round count will be around 65 for rifle, @ 20 for ppistol total. Plan on shooting 5 stages with 2 using both rifle and pistol.
I plan on having at least 1 stage to pay our respects to our veterans and D-Day.
If you haven't attended one of these yet, you are missing a lot of fun and some great people. Many people consider their rifles as their primary home defense weapon, but never practice in simulated scenarios requiring mag changes, right and left shoulder shooting, standing kneeling, shooting while on the move, etc. We do all these things and more in a safe, friendly, and comfortable setting.
Come out this Saturday, bring a friend and have a lot of fun!

This has probably been asked before, but what type of ammo? I will be running an AR in 223/5.56 and 9mm in handgun.
Thanks,

I believe that any standard type ammo will work just fine. I run regular FMJ ammo. Lot's of people, including myself, runs our own reloads too.

I got a new .223 upper and am now on the fence about running it or the 9mm I usualy run. lol... Quiet or LOUD, I'm torn.

LOUD...

or quiet...

Wish I could make it...was going to run the Garand at this one. My wife would probably shoot me with it if I came though, she's being induced on Wednesday.

That sucks. I am running the Garand in honor of our men who fought and died on D-Day. I can think of no better tribute in their honor than to shoot their weapon and exercise the liberties and freedoms they died for.

Dave has said anyone firing a WWII C&R rifle will have 5 seconds taken off their score!!!!

 

[Glocktogo]

Still wish I could run my M1 Carbine. Anyone have 100 rounds of .30 Carbine they'd like to sell?

This ammo drought sucks!

 

[Shifty]

WHAT!?!? Someone else is gonna run their Garand? BOUT TIME!

You can bet your bottom dollar me and mine are gonna be there kickin it up old school.

Anyone else gonna man up on this 65th anniversary of D-Day?

 

[Shadowrider]

I'm bringing my M1A, that's as close as I can come. I'd bring a Garand but I haven't got one yet. I may have to bum a sling from someone though.

This is all provided that I get to make it that is, but I'm planning on it at the moment.

 

[Shifty]

Does an M1A still qual as C&R?
