[matt2143]

Sweet I am in! See you guys there!

 

[GBanta]

Steve thanks for hosting this. Been learning a lot during these matches.

 

[trebark]

Steve - 100 rounds....really? You do know there's an EVERYTHING shortage right?

Capn'-
Last year, we did a broken scope, so anything is possible. I like the no stock idea...

Steve-
With ASC the preceding weekend and a business trip to NYC a few days before this match, I'm going to sit this one out, as I need to spend some time on the home front. I think - hope - I have enough points from the prior matches to qualify for the finale, so I will see all you guys in October for the big wrap-up!

-James

 

[41mag]

Unfortunately I will be traveling on business that Sunday. Good luck to all you guys that make it to the match. Steve runs a great shoot!

 

[bohem]

Have a great shoot, Guys! I'm sure the P-team will have some tricks up their sleeves for this one, I won't be there for it either. Same weekend as the GAP Grind.

Yes its going to be fun. At the start of the day we will take away your rifles but not your ammo. You will be issues a pair or vise grips a small nail and a hammer. Good luck!

And Steve isn't running this one I am.

 

[trebark]

And Steve isn't running this one I am.

Can you show me how to use that breecher shotgun again? ;-)

 

[trebark]

Tom is round count really 100?

 

[jbailey]

Can you show me how to use that breecher shotgun again? ;-)

That was one of the best bushwacks ... I'm easy to bushwack, but Tom and Steve did it with such strong acting. Tom Jr especially deserved some acting award for that performance.

Tom-
Sorry to miss this one! I'm up in NYC just prior to the match on business and if I come back and immediately go to a rifle match, my wife will not be happy. Especially since the finale is on my (and your) wedding anniversary.

 

[tmpohuski7]

Tom is round count really 100?

60 will probably do you good but I am still Thinking of adding the Mayberry Mad Minute stage from last year.

What is this Mayberry Mad Minute you speak of?

 

[scatterbrains]

Im in see you guys then

 

[jbailey]

What is this Mayberry Mad Minute you speak of?

Lot of shooting in 1 quick minute. Have to be quick single feeding your rifle... guys worried about burning out their barrel should sit this one out

 

[tmpohuski7]

The Mayberry Mad Minute was a stage we used last year were shooters had 1 minute to shoot a B27 for score with as many rounds as they could get off. The catch was single feed only for bolt and semi-auto. It sounded like the first morning at Gettysburg.

What distance? What was the most shots fired?

 

[jbailey]

What distance? What was the most shots fired?

I thought it was at 200yds vs. a piece of paper with many small targets on it. Freddy got off something like 17rds. This is from memory.

I like Tom's term: sounded like Gettysburg! All 25 shooters on-line at once, dumping as many rounds thru their pipes as possible. Amazing amount of smoke, dirt, splash, and of course noise.

 

[bohem]

Eric

Last time I shot it the distance was 300yd on a B34 for score. I had 18 shots fired in 1 minute with the bolt closed and my finger on the trigger for the 19th when the cease fire happened.

I believe that Freddy had 17 fired with 16 hits for the day's high score.

 

[19Scout77]

Cool. Brings back fond memories of shooting the Infantry Trophy Match...aka the Rattle Battle.

 

[SteveInMd]

Josh is correct, it was a B34 at 300 yards. I think everyone liked it based on the sizes of the smiles they had when they got up off the line.

 

[Shrek183]

Have the standings been updated? Inquiring minds want to know!

 

[SteveInMd]

The roster is full, if you would like a spot on the waiting list email me, mayberrymatches(at)gmail.com.

[matt2143]

Man this match did not fill in the time the previous matches did......

 

[herr.baer]

Have any e-mails gone out to those that made it in yet?

 

[SteveInMd]

No emails have been sent. If the registration form took your info your in.

Steve B.

 

[herr.baer]

Cool... thanks for the quick reply. See you at the match.

 

[aiming4results]

I have signed up for this match but now I have scheduling conflicts. Would anyone like to take my spot on the roster?

 

[jonesturf]

Is there a final round count for Sunday?

 

[tmpohuski7]

60 will do you fine.

 

[SteveInMd]

[capnswervon]

That's great Steve. Thanks a lot!

The Capn'

 

[aiming4results]

Any takers?

 

[scatterbrains]

I am not on the list? I need this match for finals eligibility

 

[matt2143]

So we do have to shoot three even if we have a win?

 

[SteveInMd]

Matt,
Match winners are automatically qualified for the final even if they haven't shot three matches.

Steve B.

 

[walnuts]

Are the scores reset for the final shoot and everyone starts at 0.
It sounds like if you shoot one match and win you make the finals
but have no chance of winning the series with out three scores going
in to the final shoot. If the scores are not reset to 0 for the final,then this
becomes a shoot out between the top 5 or 6 guys and the rest of the final
match shooters are just sending rounds down range with no hope of an
overall win.

 

[fargo007]

I'm out for this one guys.

You all have a great time.

Steve, pick a shooter at random and measure their X count on a paper target stage. Odd, Finals at NH. Even, Finals at Mayberry.

--Fargo007

 

[matt2143]

The way it reads is you keep the top 3 scores and you must shoot a match at both venues. The 3 scores are added up just for determining finals eligibility. Although I would guess there may be a place for the highest scores of the series (cumulative) but I believe the finals match is for determining the winner. I guess since if you came and shot only ONE match and were automatically enrolled in the finals then what would be the point in going if you carried your scores with you...... (unless they take your average percentage, i.e. 64% from the one match you shot but I do not really see how that works). I am just guessing here, if this info is wrong please correct me.

 

[fargo007]

The finals is just another match (of the best shooters) that counts in a cumulative way toward the series.

The top shooters will be INVITED to the finals. The list of these top shooters begins with those who came in 1st place in any series match. It continues in descending order by series points scored.

Qualifying into the finals means only that - that you have a seat at the finals. Your score across the series still matters, and you still have to shoot at both clubs or you are unqualified to win the series.

As it happened last year, the guy who won the finals (match) also won the series, but it's totally possible to not win the finals, and still win the series.

Hope that sheds some light on it for you.

[matt2143]
