Hello everyone,
I’ve got a few questions for the people that have competed at the SWN’s. This will be my first year in attendance and I would like to get some recommendations for decent and safe (my wife will be accompanying me) Hotels where other competitors will be staying.
I shoot F Open and will be competing in both mid-range and long-range and I’m also trying to figure out how many rounds to load for each.
Wednesday, If I’m not mistaken there are three 20 shot for record relays of mid-range (figured there would be at least 6 relays for nationals).
Thursday is Palma 4 Man Team so I won’t shoot on Thursday.
Friday is 15 shots for record at 800, 900 and 1,000
Saturday looks like 2 relays of 20 shots for record and then a 4 Man Team relay (not on a team yet).
Sunday looks like 2 more relays of 20 shots for record.
So if my math is correct (and I have doubts)!
Mid-Range would be 60 shots for record plus unlimited sighters on all relays.
Long-Range looks like 125 rounds for record and a whole bunch of sighters.
Plus since I’ve never shot there so it would be wise to go a day early and practice.
It'll be my first (hopefully of many) big matches and I don't know why but I was under the impression that when you went to a national match you loaded up like 600 rounds per rifle!
Can anyone confirm the number of shots for record?
Greatly appreciate the help and feedback.
