If we could work a Air Rifle match in, an along with the High Power and Smallbore, at the Mid-South Regional in 2015, who would be interested in shooting it? More than likely be shot on Friday. Just putting our line in the water right now.
Let us know,
Mark

That is a lot of rifles to tote. How many classes of air rifle are being considered? Just 1 or all 3?
I'd prefer to make Friday a HP Match day along with Sat.

I love the idea but just don't know how we would be able to fit all the gear we'd need to bring. We haul 3-4 people in one vehicle every year. Even with only three shooters last year we BARELY were able to cram everything in to make it home. If we added air rifle, Tureau himself would be bringing SEVEN rifles (HP std & hunter; SB std & hunter, open, sporter and target). We would have a minimum of 17 rifles if we only brought 3 people! The best we've ever been able to do was 16 rifles on a trip to Houston for the Texas air rifle championship. The idea is good, the logistics are tough.
I agree with Dee; I'd be happy to shoot a 3-day match, or a 4-day match, or a 5-day match... Just need to limit the required equipment.

Maybe you have too much stuff!

It was just a thought. I don't want everyone to rent a U-Haul to get here. Lets drop it.
Stay Safe All,

maybe add SB CLA? That's only one gun and Dustin could shoot Tureau's gun. I think it would be great to have a match like that. Been wanting to do one for years. Logistics are tough, but it is GREAT to see others interested.

Mark,
You guys can always host an air rifle regional at another time of the year. We need more big air rifle silhouette matches.
