100 Rd Burn Down 2013 @ Heartland June 30th

Guys, a few of you need yo call Lee Matthews between 5-7 today and tomorrow and talk about this match.

840-1000 or *1000 (first one is easier to get into)
 
I will be there tonight! I'll even have some non-window Magpul Pmags with me for sale. I'll be the one in the kilt.
 
This match was great! Thanks to David and Ben at Heartland, the RO's and all the shooters! Can't wait 'til next week!
 
Awesome match! One thought on time saving tips, perhaps, especially during these big turn out matches, have everyone sign up with their first gun. Once everyone is in, if it looks like there is going to be a ton of folks, limit the second gun amount or close it off, and or, have two separate score sheet stacks, that way all the first guns can go through, and the folks shooting second guns can all go after everyone has gone. Just my thoughts.

Yep, I always shoot twice because I CAN. With crowds like last night's, I wouldn't mind if I only got to shoot once. I just need double-practice.
 
The original protocol for Second Shoots (SS) was that they can be done until there are 40 total entries. If more people showed up, then there'd be fewer SS's

This is easier said than done, but it's usually not a problem.

The great turnout we had for a 5th Sunday match was NOT expected!

The rifles take longer to run and that adds up over 4 stages x 9-10 shooters. But we don't usually have have but one or two rifle shooters, so again, it's not usually a problem.

Also, a "time-out" limit will be looked at, like 60, 75 or 90 seconds. Most stages should be completed in 30 or less, if not 20 or less.

Further, if we have folks assugned or designated to tape certain arrays, the RO can simply ask what the score is. Any doubt or question, the RO can look at a specific target and make the call. The new scoresheets have target arrays separated and would be easy to score: "Array 1, two Deltas," and so on. If we have enough tapers, the range restoral time is shortened, as long as everyone remembers to get back up range in a timely manner so the next shooter can get started.

Thoughts?

The great turnout we had for a 5th Sunday match was NOT expected! This is a good thing. Let's be prepared to handle more shooters when possible.

The rifles take longer to run and that adds up over 4 stages x 9-10 shooters. But we don't usually have have but one or two rifle shooters, so again, it's not usually a problem. Most rifles are a second-shoot and apply as above. If we hit forty, the shooter can choose just rifle or just pistol.

Also, a "time-out" limit will be looked at, like 60, 75 or 90 seconds. Most stages should be completed in 30 or less, if not 20 or less. I doubt this would save enough time to make a significant difference in the time we finish.

Organization speeds things.
Last night took longer to find the hits, judge the close ones, and tape because the targets got so ripped up. Perhaps having replacement targets readily available to swap would help.
Pasters are faster than masking tape as well.

Got there as quick as we could. Some of our jobs require us to work on Sundays.
