Steel shoot MVGC Fri Jan 30 7pm

[clerk.mvgc]

MVGC will host a steel shoot Fiday nite Jan 30th at 7pm. I'm still undecided whether to go man on man or agianst the clock. What do you guys prefer?

As always, all shooters are welcome, you don't have to be a MVGC member. Beginners also very welcome!

 

[Underwhere]

Interested. I may be seeing you guys there.

What sort of courses are being set up? Never been to MVGC.

Man against man gets more people shooting at one time and it's much more fun to watch. It also seems to introduce more pressure on the shooters involved. All of these are good things. Shooting for time is kinda dull.

You could also do both.
Start off a couple/few runs shooting against the clock and then have a shoot off.

This might be a good way for the newer shooters that have not shot "man on man" to get warmed up before adding pressure.

Will there be a practice on Wednesday? I can't come Friday, but would love to try.

Excellent idea PMD, I think that may be the way to go!

I don't have a preference but I will be there.

 

[SA John]

PMD, that is a good idea. Was wondering if autos and revos will be seperated and if we draw from the holster or from the ready.

 

[clerk.mvgc]

We can seperate revolvers and autos if there's enough of us wheel gun afficienados to make up a relay (or more). I plan to bring both auto and revolvers.

We start from low ready (bottom of muzzle touching the table).

What is the set up? Target size and Distance?

[clerk.mvgc]

Steel racks, 6 eight inch plates per rack at 25 feet OR 3 small and 3 large pepper poppers at 30 feet.

Theres a few vids on the clubs site from our last shoot where we shot 6 large poppers @ 35 feet then moved to 6 small poppers @ 25 ft

clerk - don't let pete come down.... He's a steel shark for sure!

 

[Hanwei]

I will do my best to be there as well!

I'm no shark I'm just a beginner.... HAHA

 

[PMD]

I'm planning to attend too...

 

[Hanwei]

Hey Clerk... When do the shoots usually wind down? I'm trying to get an idea so I can plan something for afterwards. Thanks!

 

[wmccurdy53]

I can't speak for the steel shoot tonight, but the PPC shoot a couple of weeks ago was winding down about 9:15 or so.

 

[SA John]

wmccurdy53: If what you mean is it runs too late, I'm with you. That's one big advantage of shooting man on man. Shoot goes twice as fast. Get 30 guys or more in there and shoot against the clock and nobody is going to be doing much shooting. I no longer shoot at MRA because they shoot time only and the last time I was there it took 50-55 minutes between shooting times. They get about 30 people. Takes a few minutes between shooters. Do the math. I like the guys at MRA, don't like the timed shoot format because I tend to fall asleep.

You can always be there early and sign up for the early relays. I should be there by 6:00 at the latest. We'll probably set up some poppers and do some more, less formal, shooting when the relays are done, for those that want to continue shooting. Personally, if I leave the club before 11 I don't feel like I shot enough LOL!

 

[SA John]

Thanks for your effort, Dave. I can't wait for the upcoming pin shoot and the PPC.

 

[Hanwei]

I had a good time tonight! Thanks to everyone running it.
