Re: Kentucky Members Shoot - Ideas Wanted
Per KYS338, he is handling the “registration” for the event, so please make sure that you communicate with him via PM or Email and provide him with your details.
We really want to offer this opportunity to Snipers Hide members, but if we can’t fill the 25 slots, then we have other avenues that we can use to pull shooters in from. As such, please advise KYS338 of your status ASAP.
In terms of the shooting,
I can assure everyone, and I know KYS338 will agree, that we are going to do everything we can to accommodate shooters from 100 yds to 1,000 yds. We are looking at:
- Paper Targets at closer ranges for zero confirmation
- Steel Targets at set intervals (most likely every 100 yds) for dope verification
- Steel Targets at random distances for ranging / unknown distance shooting
- Fun Targets like balloons, golf balls, or clay pigeons set at random distances
Per KYS338, we are also looking at some type of informal / fun match at some point during the course of fire for those who want to participate.
Our goal, weather and logistics permitting, is to get the layout and details for the course of fire confirmed by Feb 6. Obviously we have some issues which are not helping at the moment, but we will get it taken care of!
My first responsibility at the shoot will be to act as RSO, and do whatever it takes to keep things running as smoothly as possible. As time and duties allow, I will try to help out anyone, especially the new shooters, however I can.
This could obviously lead to “Bigger and Better Things” at Rockcastle in terms of having a regularly scheduled event for Long Range Shooters. As such, we want to try and make a very strong first showing which I am sure with everyone’s help we can make happen!
Thanks,
M Richardson
