The 2 day match is March 21st and 22nd. You can join the IBS at the match or right now. IBS membership is not required for club awards in the match. If you are chasing SOY points or are planning to set a new record, than yes you would have to be an IBS member. The match is run at a nice pace so everyone shoots and still has alot of time to BS. The format is, 6 min unlimited sighting period followed by 5 rounds in 10 min for score #1 tgt. You will be given a 2min unlimited sighter period, followed by 5 rounds in 10 min for score #2 tgt. You will clear the line of all equipment and the next relay will shoot. After all relays have fired, you will go backup and repeat what you shot earlier with the exception of the 6 min sighter period. It now becomes 2min sighter instead of 6 min. 4 targets, 20 rounds for score plus sighter rounds. We will go over this at the safety meeting. Registration fees cover your entry,pullers if we have enough and your meal. Like i said, it's a nice easy, friendly run match. I suggest you review the rules on the IBS web so that way it isn't overwhelming for you. If you need anything let us know. If you want to see some real good groups in some real windy conditions, you will. the majority won't be from a 30cal eithier. We have alot of real good shooters over there and a wonderful fellowship together.
