North Texas April Rifle Match - Leonard, TX

Re: North Texas April Rifle Match - Leonard, TX

The support for this match has been great. We have registered/paid shooters from Texas, Louisiana and all the way from Southern California.

Still have some slots available - send in your registrations to ensure you get a secured spot.

** anyone in the north texas area that has up to (5) 55-gallon drums that you can loan me for the match please send me a PM.
 
Re: North Texas April Rifle Match - Leonard, TX

I was about to sign up but since I'm not from 'round these parts I had a question about a requirement:

Ammo - 125 rifle rounds total needed, NO FMJ, TRACERS, STEEL CORE, or ARMOR PIERCING bullets allowed.

I don't mean to be a wet blanket, but will a SMK be considered a FMJ? It has a HP and I imagine everyone is going to be shooting these types of bullets but I wanted to ask before I signed up and caused even more headache/heartburn.
 
Re: North Texas April Rifle Match - Leonard, TX

Looks like we are going to have custom dillos from Larue Tactical too... Remember that this match is limited to 40 shooters so get your registrations in soon
 
Re: North Texas April Rifle Match - Leonard, TX

Got you down TT - there are a few slots left.

Those slots that i am holding for people who have no paid, get your registrations in ASAP.

Once there are no spots left I will reach out to those that have a spot held and you will have 24 hours to register before i have to release it to someone on the standby list.

Some beginners might be a little shy because they don't want to get stomped on by the pros but don't worry about that. I'm not looking to do well, I just want to have some fun and meet some new people.

There are 10 slots left, if you are new sign up. You are not alone.</div></div>

this will be one of my first matches too
 
Re: North Texas April Rifle Match - Leonard, TX

I am still going to go watch but I am not going to shoot, I am going to be realistic and know my limitations. I am still not completely healthy enough to do any tactical matches so I am going to just have to wait until next year. Hope to see you guys there.
 
Re: North Texas April Rifle Match - Leonard, TX

Just a note for all those coming to spectate - understand that we are going to have 40 shooters actively participating. While you are welcome to spectate there are going to be limited areas in which the spectators have access to.
 
Re: North Texas April Rifle Match - Leonard, TX

no more detail than in the original post until the day of the event.

I could check your zero the day before the event, first shot of the day will be a cold-bore shot.
