belly (prone) match, from 200-1200 yards at various steel targets. great chance to get dope for your rifle. there are 4-5 stages each with 5 or so pieces of steel each and you get 3 chances to hit each piece. there are 1-2 folks in each squad calling shots and giving you holds if you miss. around 10 in each squad. everyone shoots at first target one by one, then at 2nd target, etc. fun, casual and again great chance to get some dope for your rifle. targets are clearly marked and distances are given.

then they have the PRS match in april that has some belly shooting but also positional shooting. on top of, thru, side of, and under various barricades and the like. some stages have multiple positions you have to move to and from.

i'm in squad 1 for both matches if anyone wants to join in the fun.

Dumb question: Is semi ok or only bolt?

Eh, they haven't had a target over 1000 yards in over two years. More like 200-900 typically, blame the 6mm guys.

why do you say that, because of lighter splash being harder to see? def harder to see my 6.5creed splash vs 308, ~20% less mass hitting out there.

Speed3 · Jan 29, 2018

I'd like to get in on the LRC stuff too....need to get a load worked up quickly though.

If only out to 1k, I might be able to use my .308 if the 6.5CM load isn't right.

Haha I was gonna bring my 20" bolt gun. Maxed the scope and hold over at 1050 with that one though. I can reach 1200 with the 6.5 with hold over.

Any idea when the website is going to open up for registration? I’d like to get it on my calendar and have a buddie who would like to shoot it with me but needs time off work to do it. Being our first outing is there any suggestions on gear to bring? Round count?

Practiscore is already updated with most of the matches. You can go ahead and register now. Peacemaker is usually slow to update their website, but they keep Practiscore updated. You can register for March LRC now.

i think we're still talking LRC, right? bring your rifle and bipod and have your dope (drops and windage) printed out or on phone etc (but don't count on cell coverage). 75 rounds (5 stages, 5 targets per stage, max 3 tries per target). one or two mags though you can single feed also. snacks and beverages (there is nothing nearby).

you can bring or borrow all this: tripod and spotting scope, rangefinder (they do give you distances), kestrel (wind and enviro's), shooting mat. rear bag (sock with bb's works).

Most targets 2 MOA? 1 MOA?

Tripods aka bald eagle rest ok to use? Wondering if my 6BR tube gun might be a better choice.

i think they were all 2moa or larger. if you mean shooting off a tripod, i haven't seen anyone doing that (at the LRC matches) but guess it would be allowed, certainly isn't easier than prone. and this is all for fun anyways.

I have seen some very interesting methods to shoot this match.
