FUN PISTOL SHOOT/ REVOLVER MATCH
revolvermatchflyerfor2006.gif
Objectives To provide a handgun shooting venue friendly to beginner and intermediate level shooters
To create a safe, supervised environment
To help shooters increase their gun-handling skills
To create a venue for the use of revolvers without penalty for their lack of load capacity (stages are 6-shot neutral)
Procedures Stages are shot under the supervision of a Range Safety Officer
A timer is used to record the overall time used by the shooter to address the target stage. The shooter has the option of requesting that a timer not be used.
Penalty points in the form of additional time are added for targets missed or for procedural errors.
Participants have the choice of including or excluding their scores from the tabulation prepared after the conclusion of the match. Scores are distributed by e-mail to those choosing to participate.
A maximum of 8 shots may be taken before a mandatory reload on all stages.
When First Sunday of every month with setup starting at 8:00 a.m. and the shooters meeting starting at 8:50 a.m.
Shooting commences at 9:00 a.m.
Feel free to come early and help set up.
Who Members of the Lemon Grove Rod & Gun Club and non-members are invited.
Where At the shooting facility in Alpine located on Sequan Truck Trail owned and operated by the Lemon Grove Rod & Gun Club
What to bring Any semi-auto pistol or revolver capable of holding 6 rounds, holster, 120 rounds of ammunition, a minimum of 4 magazines or speed loaders, eye protection (shooting glasses), hearing protection and a desire to have some fun.
Holsters must be attached at the belt level unless it is a cowboy rig.
No shoulder holsters or cross-draw rigs are to be used.
Fee Members pay $5 to shoot
Non-members pay $10.
All participants are expected to help in the conduct of the event by helping with setup, tear-down, target taping and score keeping.
Ammunition It is requested that no magnum ammunition be used as it is hard on our targets and also hard on the shooter.
Lead bullets are recommended over jacketed bullets as they reduce the likelihood of bullet fragments returning to the shooter area when metal targets are being used.
There is no minimum caliber or power factor required unless you are participating in the revolver match.
In this event the minimum power factor is 120 as measured by the ICORE test procedures.
Less experienced shooters may use .22 caliber ammunition, if that is their choice.
Range Rules A number of “common sense” range rules are used for the safety of all participants:

  • Handguns are handled, i.e., placed in your holster, only at the “safety area” designated by the Match Director.

  • The range is a COLD RANGE, which means that all firearms are in the unloaded condition (an open magazine well in the case of semi-auto pistols) and in the holster at all times other than when shooting under the supervision of a Range Safety Officer.

  • When engaging the targets, shooters must observe the “180 Rule” which means that loaded firearms must be pointed down range at all times.

  • When moving between shooting positions, the shooter must have his/her finger outside of the trigger guard.

    		•
    Other Information

    At the initial address of the targets, beginner shooters are encouraged to use the “low ready” position.

    Intermediate shooters will normally draw from their holster.

    Shooters are encouraged to state their preference to the Range Safety Officer.

    In moving between shooting positions, each shooter is encouraged to move only at a pace comfortable and safe for the shooter.

    Targets generally consist of metal targets and NRA D-1 “tombstone” cardboard targets.

    The scoring protocol and rulebook used is that published for the International Confederation of Revolver Enthusiasts (ICORE).

    The Range Safety Officer can answer any questions participants have about the rules.

    Before loading your magazines, check with the Match Director regarding the maximum number of rounds that can be loaded. In general, this number will be less than the capacity of your magazines.

    If you would like to have further information, please contact the Match Director, Roger Snipes at (619)445-5572.
