    Default Duelling tree challenge Saturday 08h00 Irene

    Come join us for some semi-competitive shooting fun at Irene shooting range on Sat 4 Jan 08h00. We are going to use LoopSoosStroop’s duelling tree and set up a little impromptu match to see who has the best balance between speed and accuracy. Two shooters line up next to each other and at a signal draw their weapons and shoot at the three metal discs on their respective sides of the duelling tree. When one shooter hits a target, it flips 180 degrees to become the other shooter’s target. The purpose of the exercise is to win the “duel” by flipping all 6 metal discs over to your competitor’s side. See http://www.gunsite.co.za/forums/showthread.php?34956-Duelling-tree-First-range-session for demo. Beginners welcome! So far we will have a Glock 19 and a Ruger GP100 on the range.

    Sounds cool, but I have to ask - why Irene? Especially given the experiences from last time?

    No reason why we cannot encourage/educate/enforce range safety (especially on the handgun range where we will be) while we are there?

    Is your barrel 4"? Managed quite a few hits with a .38 snubby last time, your rollie might just work well!
