South Mississippi Practical Shooting

Had 32 entries in this evening’s classifier match where we tried out open squadding. Seemed like it went well and was pretty smooth. Look forward to doing more like these on the 1st Sunday of the month. Thanks also to everyone who helped with setup and tear down. Results are uploaded to USPSA and Practiscore.

MATCH DETAILS:
The match will be 5 stages similar to our USPSA pistol stages, only we will be shooting them with rifles. Scoring will be Time Plus.

.223/5.56/.308/22LR and pistol caliber carbines welcome.

We will have two divisions, centerfire rifle and 22LR.

We recommend an AR style rifle with 30+ round magazine.

There will be no mandatory reloads, and stages will not require more than 30 rounds, so minimal gear is needed to compete.

Just show up with a rifle, a 30 or 40 round magazine, ammo, and of course eye and ear protection and you will be good to go.

Recommend 150 rounds, bring more if you plan on missing.

Chamber flags required, we will have some on hand if you need one.

See you at the match!

See you at the match!

We had 61 shooters come out today for the Multi-Discipline pistol match, and by the feedback we received it was a huge success.  We had great weather, aside from some high winds, and some seriously challenging Pro-Am style steel stages.

Overall, the mix of USPSA, Pro-Am, and Steel Challenge stages seemed to be a nice change from normal, and provided a different set of unique challenges on each stage.  You really had to be on the front sight (or dot) today to do well.

Congrats to Corey Yates on winning Open, Gerwin Henn winning Limited, and Jason Welch winning Production.

Also want to thank Michael Morgan for bringing the Precision Tactical t-shirts and the coupons.

And last but certainly not least, a huge thanks to the setup crew, without whom this or any BPSA match would not be possible:  Gerwin Henn, Roger Henn, Chris Davis, Sandi Davis, Gerald Forbes, Lee Fraiser, Joe Borgstede, Nick Jamerson, and Kyle Watkins.

We’ll be doing it again soon!
