Twelfth Annual Pat Cannon Revolver Bang Ping

Postby selurcspi on Sat Jul 08, 2017 3:36 pm

It's July and the Revolver focused Bang Ping is here on Saturday the 15th.

This year, Pat Cannon will have a chance to win it, as I will be travelling from Shenzhen to Shanghai when shooting is going on. This also means we'll have a Guest Course designer.

If you don't have a revolver, take all but 6 rounds out of your AutoStuffer and play any way.
We'll separate the Men from the AutoStuffers in the results and in the Man v Man There will be a separate Ladder for AutoStuffer v Autostuffer.

OK. What's needed? Just like the Second rule of gunfights states......Bring a Gun!...... 9mm, .38, 41, 44, 45, will do the job. 500 S&W, 460 Linebaugh etc, might be a bit too much.

Holster, not needed for a Tyro, but you cannot shoot Man v Man without one. The trigger MUST be covered. Mag carriers are a big help, also we recommend you bring 4 magazines. If you don't have sufficient magazines, bring a friend with an Uplula.
Round count, in a perfect world 100 would suffice. If you have the slightest idea you might miss, bring more....lots more. I don't miss much but I still bring 200
Hearing protection, if you want to be able to talk with your grandkids bring it, learning sign language at 50 isn't easy.
Eye Protection, good quality sunglasses, safety glasses or prescription glasses are MANDATORY, they should wrap around the side or have side panels.
Think of your shooting glasses as your American Express Card, don't leave home without them. We're shooting at Steel, bullets shatter, pieces of them bounce.
Clothes...This is Minnesota, bring snow clothes, rain gear, sunscreen, shorts....you get the picture...be a boy scout.
Hydration, bring something to drink, it may be hot (or cold) so bring water or something else (non-Alcoholic).
Food, the town is six miles from the range and there are no facilities on site, bring some lunch, you might get hungry otherwise.

Start Time, Setup will be at 8:30, Safety Briefing will start at 9:30, if you are not there for the safety briefing, I'm sorry but you will not be able to shoot the match.

COF, Four stages, each of 4 strings with the best three times to count. The winner will be the one with the lowest total time for the 12 runs.
$15 for Non Members, $10 for Members. (Gopher Campfire Club Members)

You shouldn't be getting Pat's hopes up.

If the top 80% of shooters stay home because Selurcspi won't be there, I have a serious chance at first place.

Twelfth Annual Pat Cannon Revolver Bang Ping

Postby PhilaBOR on Tue Jul 11, 2017 8:23 am

I plan to be there. I wonder if 230 grains of .44 special will drop the poppers faster?

You better hope that no girls show up either.

I like girls, even if they beat me. I mean, shoot better than me.
