I'll be there.......

[nb forrest]

I can't wait. The weather should be perfect.

[dunndw]

Whats the hardware requirements as far as sights on the rifle?

[RWF]

should be, irons, red dot or low power scope. it all should be fine.

if they get a "long" range stage about 100 yards most should be under 30 yards.

good luck

[dunndw]

So I'd be "legal" with a aimpoint,EoTech, or a Meprolight?

I know GGC 3 gun matches are irons only

[RWF]

i have used EO Tech there before and i know of at least one shooter who will have one saturday.

[dunndw]

Well...if I can drag my lazy butt out of bed Sat I might try it. I've never shot 3 gun.

[gsbell]

It will be worth the trip. Robert will have some good stages for us.

[dunndw]

how long of a drive is it in the real world from the Donelson area? Google maps puts it at 1hr 9min...

I plan on being in Gallatin also but I won't be shooting Irons. I mostly shoot a low power variable scope...

[gsbell]

Depending how far you are to the highway I'd say an hour from that area. I'm off OHB on the south end of town and it takes me 10 minutes just to get to 65 and then another hour to get out there.

[rstandley]

dunndw; No complaining about the drive. I will be leaving Hermitage at 6:00AM so I can setup the stages.

I will be using the IDPA classifications to score the match. Standard sights on the shotguns. Red dot or scope on your rifle will score you in ESP, iron sights will score you in SSP. CDP guns will be allowed to run 10 RD. mags. for scoring in ESP.

If you want to run a Heavy metal setup bring a.308 or 30-06 rifle, 5-7 round pump shotgun and 8 round.45 pistol. Scored as CDP.

I have round and mags restrictions on the woods walk. 4 10 round mags max on body for pistol and 30 round max for rifle. speed reloads ok. 8 shotgun slugs required on woods walk.

High cap. "standard factory" may be run on all other stages in ESP.

Please limit pistols to approved IDPA or USPSA production only. Dropped offset holsters ok. No USPSA speed holsters please. I have some 3-gun rules posted on Gallatin Guns website, I will be using these.

Bring your setup, we will put in some class.

1911

5.56 AR with Aimpoint or Eotech (depends on my mood)

Remington 870

That is if the honey doesn't honey do me. She's supposed to be going to a family thing in Joelton...there's my chance :-)

Great shoot today gentlemen. Had a ton of fun, met some nice shooters. My two pieces of advice for people thinking about attending a match is:

1. wear comfortable boots

2. pack food and water

[tnroadrunner]

dunndw I belive we were in the same group. I was the old guy with the AMSOIL vest. It was a great shoot.

[gsbell]

Good match by Robert. I had a good time, didn't shoot worth a damn but still had fun!

Thanks go to Jeff Stone for running the last stage for me, as I had to scoot.
