This match was ran very well. The stages were challenging and a lot of fun. I'll edit the posts above tomorrow with the target ranges and other info. I finished up 16th out of 48 shooters which wasn't to bad considering its a brand new range to me and the scenery is 100% different from desert type shooting.
Thanks to Upslidedown for taking the video footage.
Here's one more photo from stage 3:

Heck yeah brother! Had a blast out there, despite the 94* heat and gusty winds... Lol. Glad to have you out here man!
Great times for sure look forward to getting back out there. Frontline Defense is a pretty nice facility!
Nice shooting LW...lotta green stuff there...I'd be to distracted by the scenery...beautiful down there.
For sure. It was the hardest part of the adjustment throughout the day!

What cartridge/yardage?
"An armed society is a polite society"
"...shall not be infringed" What's the confusion?
243win. Shot 115 DTACs for part of the match and 105hybrids the other half. (my stock of DTACS ran dry). Shortest shot of the day was 159yds, longest shot 1000yds. Most were between 400-700yds. I would post the course of fire if I had internet, but I just don't have it yet at the new house.

Cool,looks like 0 recoil for a 243.

"...shall not be infringed" What's the confusion?
Just about. Might come off .3-.5 Mils when in a solid position.
Mind you the rifle weighs in at 17lbs.

Been watching some of the videos.
PRS Rule 1.3.3 states:
I've yet to see a video of a competitor using a semi-auto rifle. Have you seen any in your matches and if so, how were the transitions/movements handled?All transitions and movements during a course of fire must be done withopen bolts and an empty chamber. An exception will be made for Semi-AutomaticRifles but only at the discretion and approval of the MatchDirector. If the MD does permit transitions and movements with a hot rifle,the weapon must be on safe; NO EXCEPTIONS.

You don't know what you don't know.
A semi-auto must be placed on safe for every transition.

I'll try to get the score sheet posted. I placed 16th at this match and was beat by one gasser in 15th. I think bolt guns handle better and are easier to shoot in these matches.

Do you have any trouble getting solid rests with a 17 lb rifle? It doesn't look like you have a super long barrel, where does all the weight come in? You run the bolt like a f'ing master.
The matches look like a lot of fun, longrange has gotten into them locally. I would like to try but I pretty much need a new rifle. The movement and changes in stage add another element that make it look like a ton of fun.
The rifle I have now was built for single shot competitions. It could be converted, but not without spending some serious $$$ to get it to mag feed.
Weight actually helps with stability. 2 things driving the weight in my rifle is that I run a Heavy Varmint Profile barrel Length is 26" and the Gen ii Razor hd weighs almost 4lbs.
Having your stock inletted and bottom metal installed isn't to big of a deal. You should 've able to get it done for $200-$300 tops.
As far as running the bolt, there's been a lot of dry fire practice and the Mausingfield is a more than exceptional custom action.

For this match scoring was pretty interesting as with the way it's thought out its dang near impossible to have a tie at the end.
All stages were 99secs
All stages had 10shots
Every miss adds 30secs to your final time
Your final score is your total time for all stages added together.
The score sheet shows of of these factors for each stage plus how you ranked on the individual stage against all other shooters. I need to work on my stage to stage consistency as I had just as many stages that I ranked in the top 10 as I did in the 20-30 mark.
This may not open very well and therefore be hard to read with that the difference between my 16th place and 1st place was 13 hits. 6 more hits would have put me in 6th, so take out the mistakes made due to being unfamiliar with the range and wind reading in the lanes cut out between the trees. Also some self induced items like shooting 2 different bullets due to the DTACs drying up for the time being and I feel I will be much more competitive at the next match over at Frontline Defense!

I don't know what they use to be honest. Maybe practiscore or something.
