This match is a going to the shot at known distance. We will shoot at dots from 100yds, 200yds, 300yds, 400yds and 500yds. The rules are simple; one shot per-dot IF you hit the dot you move to the next round, if you miss at any time you are out for that string of fire. You will have to sit out until the next distance is shot. Each distance has its own a jack pot. So you have <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">FIVE</span></span> chances to win!!!!!
Basically we are shooting five stages of fire (100yds, 200yds, 300yds, 400yds and 500yds) with as many strings needed until the last man is standing at that distance wins his jack pot. We will draw shooter order by you pulling your number out of a bag. This will happen at each distance. Every shooter will have two min’s of prep time and 1 min to shoot 1 round at there dot when there number is called to the firing line. We will have no sighter’s at any distance.
<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="color: #0000BF">Targets:</span></span>
We will use targets like the Caldwell Orange sticker dots or other paper dots out at 2 MOA or the nearest inch size we can buy per distance. To add to the difficulty of competition, we will drop MOA size based on the performance of the shooters. Also if a stage has a duel of two shooters we will go to closest to center of the target to brake the shoot out.
This is a VERY fun match!!! The match on 19 Sept 2010 had many great shooters and all had a great time. Last match some shooters did side bets on the performance of the next shot. This turns in to a fun and exciting bi-stander event.

<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="color: #FF0000">SAFETY
NRA Safety Rules:
1. ALWAYS keep the gun pointed in a safe direction.
This is the primary rule of gun safety. A safe direction means that the gun is pointed so that even if it were to go off it would not cause injury or damage. The key to this rule is to control where the muzzle or front end of the barrel is pointed at all times. Common sense dictates the safest direction, depending on different circumstances.
2. ALWAYS keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot.
When holding a gun, rest your finger on the trigger guard or along the side of the gun. Until you are actually ready to fire, do not touch the trigger.
3. ALWAYS keep the gun unloaded until ready to use.
Whenever you pick up a gun, immediately engage the safety device if possible, and, if the gun has a magazine, remove it before opening the action and looking into the chamber(s) which should be clear of ammunition. If you do not know how to open the action or inspect the chamber(s), leave the gun alone and get help from someone who does.</span></span>
