    i'd email the match director just to be sure they allow folks who haven't done this before. i think the answer is 'yes' but you should check.

    this is a ton of fun and you don't need a bunch of experience to do it. the biggest thing is safety - finger off trigger unless shooting, muzzle always pointing downrange, etc.

    if your first time, leave all your guns (unloaded) in bags or cases until you talk with a RO (range officer) who will walk you thru loading and getting ready. at each stage let the RO there know you're the new guys and they should let you go last or at least not first so you can get the hang of things.

    pretty sure you can find some videos of past events on youtube.

    I'm not sure how to interpret that. I was thinking an answer might go like this...

    100 rds pistol
    100 rds rifle
    25 rds of #8 shot
    10 rds of slug

    Then again, this could just be my ignorance.

    Damn auto correct.

    150 of each.

    It depends of how your team shoots the stages. You may shoot more of one gun then your team mates.

    150 is just a good safe number

    Standard 3 Gun matches its usually good to bring 100 Pistol and Riffle and 60-75 Shotgun, last time it was seven stages and if you like to get your gun on like me, bring 200 pistol and riffle and 100 shotgun.

    Most of our crew is tied up this week with the FNH-3 Gun Nation Event out in WV. As soon as I get the stages and exact round counts, I'll post them here.
