Where is WEGC?

Go to the bottom of the page. From Costa Mesa about 70 minutes.

15 FWY north,4 miles past the 210, exit Sierra, turn left, go under Freeway. Go north on Sierra about one mile, look for West End sign on right side.Enter dirt road , cross creek bed (there's no water this time of year) and go in about one mile.Check in with the guy at the gate, he'll direct you where to park.

About parking, there is very limited parking on the firing line, it's easier to park in the lot below and carry your gear up the hill.

BTW, anyone need target stands? I'll bring them with me if anyone wants some (Shameless plug).

This is the latest email from the Match Director. It will be a 2x25 (50 rounds plus sighters).
3 relays of 7 shooters.
He's limiting entries to 21 shooters, so get there early!
I'm going to let him know that there will be 10 shooters from CaPRC.

"Greetings,

We will be holding a modified Mid-range match on the 15th of August.
The course of fire will be 2 strings of 25 rounds each with unlimited
sighters. In addition to shooting, you will be required to score and
serve in the pits. It should be a good day, we will provide easy-ups,
but it will still be hot so bring plenty of water to drink.

Sign-ups: 0715 to 0745.
Fees: 10.00 for members, 15 for nonmembers.

We will have to limit the match to 21 shooters, so give me a heads up
ASAP

Thanks

Guzman"

I should be back from Vegas by then. I'd like to shoot this match.

CamW,

Do you have a list of the 10 shooters or is it just the 1st 10 that show up?

It's first come, first served for EVERYBODY.
I seriously doubt he will really cap it at 21 if more show up.
There's always a way to squeeze more people in, even if they have to trim some bushes to get the 8th lane visible.

Somebody needs to bring some hedge trimmers and a hack saw....

I'll be a the range on Saturday running a pistol match, I'll see what I can do about the branches in the way.
Maybe some shotgun tree trimming? Anyone care to join me ,I'll bring the ammo!

Sorry guys, boss is on vacation and I have to cover charge, so I will not be able to attend... :x :x

I'm out guys. Gonna get some stuff done i've been putting off.

See you guys the following week in T-town

Is this match filled up yet?

shooter65 wrote:Is this match filled up yet?

From the thread it looks like its first come first serve. Get there early your on the line.

shooter65 wrote:Is this match filled up yet?

I'm pretty sure there are plenty of space on the line. Some people backed out.

Anyone know how long the match is going to run? Never done an F class before...

Good question but I would assume early afternoon.

Hey guys some "things" have come up and I’m sorry but I need to FLAKE on this one..

Shaun.

Steve Raeder and myself will be there.

I was at the range today, looked at the tree branches in the way after my match. Everything was"too". I was too tired (I had 58 shooters) , it was too hot and the branches that need cutting were too tall.
I'm going to see what the range master can do about the branches, but it looks like 7 shooters at a time on the line for Sunday.
See you guys tomorrow!

Why don't I start loading ammo before 10 the night before a match...

So does anyone have an AAR?

Good question...

I guess that this will end up being like the Area 51 match a few years ago that nobody talks about because it never happened and we were never there....

Here's the AAR from Charles Guzman, Match Director


15 August Modified Mid-Range After Action Report

15 August we held our second mid-range match of our new schedual. For those of you not yet
aware the High Power Discipline now runs two kinds of matches. The months of Februrary, April,
June, August, October and December we run a Mid-range match. This match consists of 2 strings of
25 shots each for record with unlimited sighters. Shooters will have 30 minutes to acompliish this
task. The months of January, March, May, July, September, November we shoot our normal XTC
match.

Thanks to all who showed up today, the match is a work in progress, today seemed to go pretty
good. We beat the 100° temperatures by finishing at 1300 and by the use of club easy-ups. It was
down right pleasant. These F-Class guys know how to live! Thanks to Cameron and Lyle for setting
up the easy-ups and extra tarps.
The service rifle class was taken by Marco who managed to drop 4 points over the two strings
resulting in a 496-21X, second place was Mike B. with a 485-20X. Remember, "Every Marine is a
rifleman" and Marco proved it once again.

The F-class was taken by Steve who shot a 488-18X, second place was Mark with a respectable 485-
17X. For those of you who are unfamiliar with F-class targets let me explain. The X "Ring" on an F-
Class target is a 3" circle. The 10 "ring" is a 1.5 " bigger around giving it a diameter of 6 inches.
This means the when you look at a score of 488-18X, 18 times they were able to hit a 3" circke 556
yards away 18 times! and all but 12 shots out of 50, hit the 6" circle. On a clam day, with no wind,
well, that's one thing but to do it with wind blowing and switching directions on you is a whole
different ball game. Hats off to these F-Class shooters.

In the pits

Jeez...nice tent city....Now all you need is misters to spray you every so often...Looks like you need some cover for those pits...In Cuyama somebody built a 2-3 foot overhang on the top to provide some much needed shade...makes a big difference...
