Already looking for Snow Camo Ghillie suits
I'm in (and assume WillyHank is) for the winter one.
Don't tell the wife about the snow camo ghillie. If she asks just tell her you spray painted the other one.

I dont think you need to make it a 5k/harder then its all about physical endurance and not having fun shooting stuff. the suggestions I was hearing was to just change up with the fun stuff, Archery, Shotgun, Knife/hatchet throwing, stuff like that. If you make it any more physical then all those funny looking bicycle riders with their shiny shorts are gonna show up instead of the redneck camo clad shooters we all know and love....just say'n
I was shooting .45 as well, and didn't have any issues (we were the third to last team I think). I had 1 or 2 pins that need to get rolled off the table with an extra shot.
Word of caution, last time I wore a winter Ghilli I was almost raped by a polar bear...
Pins are like that sometimes. Shot placement and bullet grain weight are important factors. I was shooting 230 gr., .45 ACP and did pretty good acording to some comments I recieved.
You cant come back Mr_hao, you're too young and in shape...
Maybe a trap stage?! Everyone loves trap!
They win, and still complain. You sure you're not a Democrat?We were using the same....230 gr 45ACP with 5.6gn of Win231
Nailed all the pins dead on and they weren't even phased by them

I think trap and archery are great ideas. Maybe some kind of partner relay stations (2 sets of knock down targets, 1 teammate starts and the other can't start until all first targets knocked down). Some kind of detail challenge (1 teammate field strips an AR or 1911 before you can shoot your targets, then second teammate re-assembles before shooting, bonus points for doing it blindfolded). I think adding more shooting and non-shooting challenges would be more fun than just adding more running.
I would like to get a small rimfire shoot stuck in the middle there. Something to test your willy.....Straws at 50 yards? I know some of you have .22s or .17s.......
Well if it's going to be a winter shoot, I vote that you make a station with a Red Ryder carbine-action, two hundred shot Range Model air rifle with a compass in the stock and this thing which tells time.
The target is this:
You all know what you're aiming at!
Sounds like all the reasoning I need to pull the trigger on a 10mm long slide.

We were going to bust out the glock 29 for the shoot with some hot georgia arms reloads but the g29 wasn't as accurate as the hk or sti. I knew I shouldn't have sold my Delta Elite =(
considering the fact that i will have it together by the end of the week... shotgun with bayonet stage. plz.

Crap. I need to buy another gun then. [lol] duct taping a bayonet to my 870 is a little too ghetto. I suppose if I JB weld something on there that it would be appropriately redneck though......
shoot target then cut sammich.
Sweeeeeeet. Your logic is irrefutable.

I think you'll need this one for your 20 ga., http://sjhardware.com/store/modules.php?name=catalog&file=product_info&cPath=107_122&products_id=355&osCsid=6f8085ab488372059fe918fac48df6b3
Distance doesn't seem to want to change, but I'm liking the ideas that are rolling in.I think trap and archery are great ideas.

small table set up with [STRIKE=undefined]one round of birdshot[/STRIKE] 2 rounds of 00 buck on it.
run to table with shotgun with bayonet on, unsheath bayonet, stab watermelon, combat load shells, blast melon, put sheath back on bayonet and replace shotgun on rack.
see, completely safe, even.
here is another couple of ideas:
1. Loudest Motherland scream: setup a DB meter and see who loves motherland the best.
2. Intimidation challenge: kidnap a lib from Cambridge, equip with catheter and a stool bag for exact measurements. Teams have 1 min of non-lethal intimidation at 5 yards to produce the biggest amount of "secretions"
