What time are we supposed to start setting up at Magnolia's Saturday 10/15/11 Match? Is it 7 AM or 8 AM?

It's typically 7AM, but Cliff will post a thread with all the particulars.

what kind of match is it?

Outlaw Steel, usually 5 stages.

All the targets are steel. No Paper. Courses of fire are straightforward, fairly low round count and usually shot from one shooting box. Steel makes scoring easy. If you do not have a holster, you can start from low ready. You shoot each course of fire 5 times and they drop your slowest score. There is a time penalty of (I think) 5 seconds for each missed target and I have missed close targets trying to go too fast. There is usually what they call a field course meaning a course where there is at least one reload and some running(or walking fast) from one shooting box to another. That field course is just shot one time and always seems to have the Texas Star at enough distance that it is really a challenge.

The courses of fire are never exactly the same every time and that makes it fun. Come out and join us. If I can do it anybody can. I just use a stock Glock but people use .22 Handguns also. Bring what you have. People are friendly and will lend you equipment to make it through the Match. Reactive targets are fun and you will get to shoot a lot of them.

Looking forward to shooting this. It will be my first steel only match.. I have shot 2 USPSA matches and love it. I am ready for the weekend!!

Ive been wanting to shoot in a pistol match again but theres always something that comes up. Firing up the grills early sat morning for my buddys wedding party. Cookin some hogs.

Yall have fun and be safe!!

will try to make it. Does fairly low round count mean 200? This is not the same as the Clash of steel then. I see there is a penalty for misses does that mean you can only shoot the number of times you have targets?

The minimum number of rounds I would bring is 200.
