A maximum of four sighting shots can be used during the first string (if a competitor is not on target within two sighters they will be withdrawn from the line. This is a safety issue so everyone should be prepared before the match with the proper come ups.) Second and third strings will allow a maximum of 2 sighting shots. Squadding will be a conventional three relay rotation. All shooters will be required to score and perform pit duties.
There will be a 3 minute prep time prior to each string.

Sounds like a great match. Too bad I'm in Washington state.

Noone:
I guarantee you that Washington and Oregon offer way more High Power than most other states. Not too many states even have a 1K range for civilian use. Washington and Oregon both have them. And you are only about a half hour drive from the one in Oregon I believe.
We are pretty lucky IMHO.

Had a good turneout today considering the heat. 93 degrees +. The first fun match came off well, but based on suggestions, I think we'll add engaging multiple targets in the 60 seconds next time.

That sounds like a lot of fun. I would try it if I was closer, Iowa. But if I get to that area, I'll be giving you a ring. What part of Louisiana?
