This Saturday I am finally heading to my first PRS match. I never have been in any sort of competition with shooting and I have no clue what to expect. I just figured since I am a man of lots of questions, I'll do fine finding my way around. But I was curious what others take as far as a case and mags.
I only have my Pelican hard case which my rifle is broken down in. I noticed in the rules that the rifle cannot be out of the case until at the platform. Not sure what that means exactly. Does it mean I have to put my rifle away when I am finished shooting between stages? Or is there usually a bench, or somewhere that folks leave their rifles un-chambered? Would I be better off going to these matches with a nylon case with the rifle fully assembled?
As for mags? I know they have each stage ranging from 10-12 rounds. I only have one 10 round mag, plus 2 rounds on the side of my rifle for manual feed. Should I have 2 mags, or could I get away with one for now?
