October Match Predictions
« on: October 11, 2023, 07:38:06 AM »
I predict...

1.)  Five main match stages and a side match.

2.)  Main match ammo needed will be 50 rifle, 50 handgun, and 18+ shotgun.  Side match will be 10-10-2+.

3.)  Some actual, real-life stories about Halloween gunfights.  *

Hope to see you there.

I predict...

7.)  No rifle or handgun knockdowns.  Of course, you're welcome to try.   :)

8.)  Pete will be there.

9.)  Two black powder shooters this time.

Anyone else care to make match predictions?  If you're right, you'll win a great prize!  *


*  That statement was completely untrue.  There will be no prize awarded.

I predict...

11.)  A smaller crowd than usual.

12.)  Main match handgun targets at about 6 paces, rifle targets at 10, and shotgun targets at 8.

13.)  If you want to clean the side match, you might need to use your sights.  Or, you might not.

P.S.  Happy Friday, the 13th!

I predict it will be a lot warmer there than it is here.
Yesterday was our early day. 60 degrees with a 20 mph wind felt pretty cold
This morning for the early flight 48 degrees with that same 20 mph wind. feel like was 42 with wind. Really cold
Hope everyone shot well today.
