Dear competitors,

The 2014 NorCal TBRC is only a little more than 30 days away!!!

I have been getting numerous emails and calls about the event so hopefully this email will get us all on the same page.

Round count for the match itself: 185
(Does not include what you need to zero and if you are going to gather dope on the 1K range)

It would probably be wise to bring a few extra rounds just in case of a reshoot of a stage.

If you need to ship your ammo, DO NOT wait till the last minute to do so. Things will be crazy the week before the match and I will not be able to wait for any UPS packages. If you need to ship ammo, please contact me at [email protected].

Friday – May 30th – Mandatory Check In and Zero

Check in and 100yard range will open from 0900 to 1500 (for those not shooting on the 1K on Friday)

Friday – May 30th – Open Range Day (gather dope from 425yd, 500yd, 600yd, 800yd, 900yd, and 1000yd)

0730 – 0900 – Check in and 100yd Zero (Range goes hot at 0800 to confirm your zero)
0900 – 930 – Split into two squads and head to 1K Range.
0930 – 1100 – Alpha Squad shoots from 200 to 1K (Bravo pulls pits)
1100 to 1230 – Bravo Squad shoots from 200 to 1K (Alpha pulls pits)

If you are not here and ready to go by 0900, you will not be able to participate in the open range session.

I have arranged group rates at the Hyatt Place in Rancho Cordova for those of you needing a hotel. Rooms are 80.00 per night and are actually pretty nice from what I hear. Stay away from the Red Roof Inn if possible.

Match Format:

We will have 4 squads of 20 shooters shooting a total of 4 evolutions.

• Steel Range (Reactive steel out to 550yds)
• Long Range (we will only be shooting 800, 900, and 1000 this year. You will be pulling pits) There is no worry about 1st relay or 2nd relay wind conditions because everyone will be shooting this evolution in the afternoon where the wind is blowing for all. 
• Run & Gun (200ish yard movement in 4 minutes)
• Short Range (Paper and some steel inside 200yds)

Two squads will spend the entire day on the Steel Range evolution while the other 2 squads spend their day on the Run & Gun, Short Range, and Long Range evolutions. We will flip flop on day two.

Saturday – May 31st
0700 – 0730 Shooters Meeting (Don’t be late!)
0800 – First rounds go down range. All COFs should be done by 1500hr
1530 – We will be having BBQ Ribs and whole lot of other good stuff.

Sunday – June 1st
0700 – 0730 Shooters Meeting
0800 – First rounds go down range. All COFs should be done by 1500hr
1500 – 1600 – Final scoring and all you can eat tacos buffet.
1600 – 1700 – Award Ceremony

Other things:

Our gracious sponsors have lined up 2 to 3 side matches for everyone on Friday! Details will be released over the next 30 days via our Facebook page and online forums. Bring about 10 rounds of ammo if you would like to participate in these events.

For those that plan to stick around on Friday for the side matches, we will be providing lunch once the open range session is completed

We will be providing simple snacks and all the hydration you need on match days to help keep everyone motivated throughout the day.

Our COF this year will be fun and challenging, but I am expecting our top competitors to finish in the high 70% to low 80% range.

If you have any further questions please feel free to call me after 6pm PST @ 916-320-3700 or contact via this email.

Thanks,

Vu Pham
TBRC Match Director

Over the last several years, the popularity of tactical/practical long range precision shooting has grown exponentially. Along with this popularity, the number of matches and requests for sponsorship for these events has increased.

Our club understands and appreciates that there is a finite amount in our sponsors' budget to support these type of events. We are humbled and truly honored they have decided to sponsor our event this year.

I thought I would get on here and share some words about this match. This was my first time at this range and shooting this match. I have to say that this is one of the smoothest run matches I've ever attended. The RO's were top notch and really kept things moving. The whole NorCal crew running this match did an excellent job. The food was excellent, the amount of swag given away to every competitor was awesome (mug, REALLY nice hoodie, etc etc.).

Stages were very well thought out and made competitors think to make good hits. The winds on the long range were amongst some of the trickiest I've ever shot in as well. All in all the match was excellent although not easy (in a good way) and I will definitely be back next year. Huge thanks to Vu for putting this on and his whole crew! See you next year!
 
Wow, what a match! There is a reason that all matches are measured up against the TBRC because its that good! Vu, and the RO's did an outstanding job of putting together a seamless match that was challenging and fun. I have to say that the dueling spinner stage was maybe one of the funnest stages I have ever shot! Thanks to the NorCal crew and all of the sponsors who made this a match that no one will forget.
