Never done it, but considering. I wouldn't mind someone telling me what to expect. Are distances known, or is ranging the target part of the challenge? Equipment restrictions? Thanks for any information.
An unethical shot is one you take, that you know you shouldn't.

Distances are always known. You get a course of fire the morning of the match that tells you all distances and how many shots and points value. No equipment restrictions besides no faster than 3100FPS otherwise you'll mess up the steel and you run what you brung you can not use multiple rifles.

Good info, thanks. Are the size of the targets given with the course of fire?

I'm thinking no standing off hand shots Ok. We are always up for new ideas on stages. If you have any, please let us know. I have an idea on one that I wanted to implement on the last match, but ran out of time to build it.

I'm thinking July 9, or August 20. why does it have to be on C shift? I've only got two options to try and get a sub...
No doubt about the AR crap, just damn shame hunters don't have self control and knowledge

I'm thinking July 9, or August 20. Them gonna be hot days to choose from , but i'm sure we'll be cooled by the inevitable rain that comes along with the match. I'm down with which ever. If you guys need any help let me know. Which one will it be Jason long range or another hunting challenge?

It's gotta be on a c-shift because I'm A-shift. And if I have it on a B-shift I'lol show up to run a match having been awake and functioning for 27 hours by 0800. Inevitable that we'lol be up all night at the station the night before, and it WILL rain that morning.
Wear your big boy pants. Far, fast, small, wind, prone, barricades, positional.
No one complained about heat last year. I spent two days clearing out the "beer garden", by the platform, so that we had plenty of shade to hide under, and it worked perfectly.

Oh I'm not complaining, I'm hot natured AF, I was sweating during the hunters challenge and it was 30 degrees and pouring rain. Heat doesn't really bother me since I'm always run on the hot side anyway. Long range it is!!!

If it gets too hot maybe we can have a bikini challenge? That would make things interesting.
