I think a major part is ammo cost. You can count on around 75 rds of pistol and rifle, prob 50 bird shot, some days will be more. Add that to match fees, gas getting there, adds up, along with spending a day doing it. Also, a lot of people cant put the money and time into it to get good, and...
SMSPS is trying to keep 3gun going at MCTA after loosing our old range in Poplarville. Turnout is low, and we have been screwed up by weather a lot. We normally shoot last Sunday of the month, with the first Sunday of the following month as backup. That being said, a lot of our guys will be out...
Each stage is different, but 25 pistol (if double tap), 10-15 birdshot, 15-20 rifle, with an occasional slug.
That is figuring hits on targets, misses add more.
Registration is open on PS for the Feb. 3gun match in Poplareville.
Rumor has it that if weather allows there will be a return to the "big gulley" for a stage. Be sure to bring a rifle sling so you can keep your hands free for getting in and out.

Registration is open on PS. Four stages scaled down a bit from usual so we can get out a bit early, but should still be challenging and fun. Have added .22rf to PCC division for those that want to shoot, but don't own all the equipment. Don't forget the time change.
SMPSA plans to restart outlaw 3gun matches on Labor Day weekend, Sept. 4. Four natural terrain stages, with rifle shots at 2-300 yds, SOMETIMES to 425 yds. depending on what stage designers come up with. We will continue HM scoring in order to allow conserving ammo.
You will need a couple of...
Thanks ta2d_cop for setting it up, looks good.
I don't post on FB, but have no problem using them to our benefit.
I know ammo is hard to get, supply wise and $$ wise. We are a fair drive for almost everyone, so we try to make the match worth the drive/expense. We have scaled down some, and...
Sorry we had to get rained out. We set up all but paper and a few rifle steel on Saturday, and I got most of the targets on first stage finished Sunday morning about the time the thunder started. Was working on second stage when the rain came in. It stopped for a few minutes, then the flood...
Registration is open on P S for March 6.
4 natural terrain stages, with distances from a few feet to 425 yds, depending on what stage designers come up with.
So come on out and test your skills. First time shooters shoot free.
