Gentlemen,
Sunday, March 6 Texas Tactical is holding a carbine match at the Austin Rifle Club located in North Austin. I realize that is a bit of a drive for most of you, but if you have ever been interested in participating in a shooting competition then this may appeal to you. So far I have shot with these guys twice and it has been an absolute blast. You also learn a lot about shooting by watching the really experienced guys participate.
This is a great entry level competition for those who have never done something like this before, and the match fee is only $25.
The equipment you need-
1. A Centerfire Rifle, preferably with a sling or carry strap. (Any centerfire rifle that you might use to defend yourself or your family can be used)
2. At least 2 Magazines.
3. Approximately 100 rounds of ammunition. (bring extra just in case)
4. A handgun and holster (for transitions or to finish a course of fire if your rifle malfunctions)
5. Eye and Ear Protection
Classes-
1. IRON SIGHTS - This division is for rifles using conventional iron sights.
2. OPTICS - This division is for rifles equipped with scopes or any kind of electronic sighting device. IE: Aimpoints, Acogs, Reflex etc.
3. LIMITED - This is for rifles with limited ammo capacity. IE: Camp Carbines, CCUs, Lever Actions etc. (You may only load to 10 rounds maximum in this division.)
4. JUNIOR - This is for youngsters 17 years old and younger. (.22 Rimfire may be used in this division. IE: 10/22
5. BATTLE RIFLE - This division is for large caliber battle rifles.
6. .22 - This division is for .22 caliber rifles. This division is to allow people to shoot the less expensive rimfire ammo.
7. CLASS 3- All fully automatic weapons fall into this category, rifle can be of any length, but all rifles must be legally possessed, any iron or optical sight is allowed.
