Baller A_B Posted October 14, 2018 Baller Share Posted October 14, 2018 Pulled the course today. Nothing else better to do than send some lead down range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller MrJones Posted October 15, 2018 Baller Share Posted October 15, 2018 +1 on that! Shot my first outdoor match since early June today! Looking forward to cooler weather... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Bill22 Posted October 15, 2018 Baller Share Posted October 15, 2018 @A_B we need to hangout sometime Edit: don’t you know that you are supposed to take the picture before you paint the steel. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller A_B Posted October 15, 2018 Author Baller Share Posted October 15, 2018 @Bill22 yea but we we just setup and my ski bud and I thought it was a nice pic to close the ski season out with. He shoots in 3G competition and I shoot for fun. Just to the left out of frame is a 100+ yard shot we have been working on when the backhoe runs. We should have a little more time to work on that now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Bill22 Posted October 15, 2018 Baller Share Posted October 15, 2018 @A_B This is one of my first steel matches a few years back (turn volume down). It was a good run for me, not super fast but a fun stage. I think it was only 3-4 misses, those pesky dueling trees are much harder than they look.

Baller MrJones Posted October 15, 2018 Baller Share Posted October 15, 2018 3 gun and water skiing. An excellent combination if you wish to blow a lot of money on toys... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Bill22 Posted October 15, 2018 Baller Share Posted October 15, 2018 That is exactly why I never got into 3 gun. I only shoot pistol and slalom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Fast351 Posted October 15, 2018 Baller Share Posted October 15, 2018 @A_B I hope you're not shooting the rifle that close. I shoot 3 gun, USPSA, and ski. Unfortunately the season is pretty much the same for all here in Minnesota (I don't shoot indoors, like my lungs too much). I need a winter hobby.

Baller_ Wish Posted October 15, 2018 Baller_ Share Posted October 15, 2018 What is 3 gun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jimbrake Posted October 15, 2018 Baller Share Posted October 15, 2018 @wish - slalom, trick, and jump. With a gun. Duh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Wayne Posted October 15, 2018 Baller Share Posted October 15, 2018 @Wish this should explain it https://www.3gunnation.com/ Essentially it requires that you are skilled at 3 firearm types (pistol, shotgun, rifle). It’s like 3 event skiing but with bullets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Wish Posted October 15, 2018 Baller_ Share Posted October 15, 2018 Ha!!! This actually showed up on my FB feed hours before I even asked. Wasn't sure but guessing this is it as well. BTW..she's 13...WOW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller A_B Posted October 16, 2018 Author Baller Share Posted October 16, 2018 @Wish I saw that before and posted it on my FB as well. @Bill22 good shooting. I’ve looked at adding a tree before but I like to control the splatter and those look like they can go sideways a little more than I am comfortable with. @Fast351 not our first rodeo. My friend added a red dot to his 7.62 and later shot from about 50 yards at paper on the plywood to get the site setup in the right zip code. Another hour or two of backhoe work and we will have a nice 150-yard backstop to zero in on. I’d like to setup a 600 yard shot at some point. No doubt it can get expensive. I have 2 new skis in my AR. But it’s a sweet shooter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Wish Posted October 16, 2018 Baller_ Share Posted October 16, 2018 @A_B Ha!!! Now that I think if it...it was your post that I saw!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Bill22 Posted October 22, 2018 Baller Share Posted October 22, 2018 @A_B This is what it’s supposed to look like. This is a friend of mine, he’s not too slow, he earned his USPSA Master’s rating in Limited. The best stages are at 0:30 – 3:09. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller MDB1056 Posted October 23, 2018 Baller Share Posted October 23, 2018 Skiing and shooting are great fun and addictive but can leave you penniless! I'm only a pistol guy, but the costs for 3G competition are staggering . Ammunition costs for practice are huge, then high end ammo for competition. Would be great fun but I can't afford both. Will stick with skiing and pistols. 4 calibers is plenty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
