    Hey everyone - we are having really cool informal sniper match Sat Sept 1st
    8AM check in at the HQ office. A few spots are still open. Unknown distance shooting and known distance will be shot on our "frontier range" Shots from 250 to 1300 with angle shooting. Pics are avalable of this range on our facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Peacemaker-National-Training-Center/139375819442377

    Lot's of targets out to 800. If you have not shot long range and or feel you have a rig that will work, bring it out. We will be available to help you. Caliber's must be .35 or under.

    Also see a great shooting demo of the Gunwerks Rifle System and the G7 BR2 rangefinder...

    Hope you guys keep doing these, as they sound great. This is the same day as Alleghany Sniper Challenge and I will be at that match, but I will certainly look to attend these in future.

    A little bit more notice on the events would be nice too. :innocent0 Makes it easier to get a kitchen pass. :lol2: Sounds like a good match though.

    Hi - we did not realize this was the same weekend as Alleghany Sniper Challenge....If you go tell those guys we did not know this was there date. We try to be careful about things like that. We will be holding these matches a lot with lots of variations. We'll post them on MD shooters soon.

    On supressors, just bring your legal paperwork authorizing you to use it.

    I've shot at this range and it's gtg. Rolling hills and lots of space make it great. Even if your just going to go out to have a day of shooting it's worth the trip.

    Serious post. Broke ass mechanic here. Would I be wasting my time with a Mosin? And surplus ammo?

    check this video out of the sniper match and PNTC's new "Frontier" range. This is different than our 1000 yard range on the main complex. If you want to get a sneak peek of the Gunwerks system and G7 BR2 see the end of the video. Thanks to Drew Blitz for filming and editing this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ga1JTqUH51E

    We will anounce our next match date soon. It will be in Oct. We will have these matches frequently and one "Mega" shoot each year...

    Everyone - The next long range challenge match is Sat Oct 27th - Registration now open. 4 Stages of fire - you may range targets with range finders. Wind meters permitted.

    This looks like LOTS of fun but I don't think I have enough MOA to get out to 1,200, even with a hold over. I need an additional 14 MOA for that extra 200 yards, yikes.

    Maybe another time...you folks have fun.

    Match details said that "70% of targets will be set inside 800 yards" so you might as well come out and get some trigger time and practice milling targets. :party29::party29:
