This looks like an awesome match. I'll know if I can make a little closer to time. Very interested though...

I had better start jogging or something. I hate to run when I can walk, and walk when I can ride.lol

Awesome.

I signed up. Looks like the weekend before my own match but what the hell.

BHTC will furnish five steel silhouette targets and stands for use during the match. They are 24hx12w. I would only ask that the AR's be kept away from them under 300Y.

Way to kick it up a notch Sean!

 

[Hogstooth]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

An added change to the rules, NO AP OR PENETRATOR AMMO ALLOWED IN THE CARBINES!!

 

[targaflorio]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Tracer or Incendiary ok?

 

[Hogstooth]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Please don't comment just to keep this at the top of the forum, and NO! Tracers or incindiary are NOT allowed.

I'm in......just registered

 

[flatlander]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Just registered also

 

[Hogstooth]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

I will be posting up the round counts, mags needed, and some other details for the match here in a couple of days.

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Can we ask which direction the range will be 1/2 hour past Kinston? East/West/North?

Will watch for the updates on round counts. Thanks.

 

[Hogstooth]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

The Range is about 20-30min NW of Kinston

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Just registered time to see if an old Marine can still hang. Hopefully Blade Tech Holster minus lock that holds firm is not an issue.

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

About how far out are you anticipating carbine engagements to reach?

 

[ajwcotton]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Save me a spot I can't get on your website till mid June. This will be a fun pre deployment event

 

[Jon Lester]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Dang Sean thats waaayyy out east! This match is closer to England than my side of Va.

 

[Hogstooth]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Cotton- No Problem man, looking forward to seeing you again, let me know if you want to come down and work on sum stuff prior to deploying.

Ratbert- I'm not gona tell you how far your going to engage with an AR, you had best come prepared to shoot as far as you need to with an AR. You know I can shoot one pretty far, I will try to keep them under 500yds for you.

Jon- WHAT?!!! Too far to go? that can't be right, well I guess that means that you are willing to let me use that old 1100yd range in your back yard for the match then right? LOL!!

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Alright guys I have your magazine and round counts for the match, as follows:

100rds Day 1/ 70rd Day 2 Precision Rifle

80rds Day 1/ 100rds Day 2 Carbine - 5 magazines minimum

50rds Handgun per day- 4 magazines minimum

Load outs will be given per day of what you need in your magazines, DO NOT come with loaded 30rd mags!!! You will have to down load your mags, mag capacity for the match on carbine mags wil not exceed 20rds and handgun will not exceed 10rds.

This is designed to force you to transition or reload during the course, you will have to manage your gear and equipment and deal with stress.

Any questions, concerns, or need recommendations PM or email me.

 

[branson1369]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Now that is a round count!!! Damn why has all the shooting evloved so much now that I am old. Looking forward to pushing the oldest part of my kit... me

 

[Hogstooth]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Make sure you have a holster that has some sort of retention to it, if your pistol flies out of the holster at any point when it is suppose to be secured you will DQ for the MATCH!!

It is going to be hard enough for you to maintain safety with 2 rifles, I don't want to have any issues with holsters during the match.

You will be moving, running, and climbing so your holster has to have retention and be secure. I recommend safariland and blackhawk SERPA holsters for anyone who might need direction.

Any questions email or PM me

Sean: I am building this into my schedule. Sounds fun. Now I need help with my 1911. My gunsmithing skills have a long way to go...
Should I be working on my p90x?

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Sean,

How is pre-registration looking? May be a few from over here in AL that are interested if there's room.

Thanks!

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

So far there are 16 shooters registered for the match

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

If one was flying in what would be the best airport to fly into? Raleigh-Durham?

 

[bp78]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Kinston is a 1.5hrs drive from RDU. It's probably your best bet.

Kinston has a jet port - no idea who flies there these days.
New Bern is 25 mins away, US Air flies there through CLT. I believe some ATL direct flight go thru New Bern too.

 

[DT1]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Last time I checked, Delta flys into Kinston (regional jet).

 

[flatlander]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

The cheapest would be RDU, but there are regional airports at New Bern, Kinston, and Greenville, NC

 

[Hogstooth]

Re: Vapor Trail Multi gun match Sept. 16/17 in N.C.

Sorry guys but I am going to have to cancel the match, I just learned that my Wife's Company lost a major contract and she will probably be out of a job in the next few weeks.

I will be having to work additional OT at work to try and fill the gap, I won't be able to run a decent match with all of this going on behind the scenes.
