January 5, 201016 yr Please forgive these (probably) obvious questions from someone who has never seen a 2x4 match. Is this shot with pistols or rifles, what is the range and are there any limits on caliber? If I shoot a 9mm, am I going up against a guy with a S&W 500? Thanks!

What is a 2x4 stake cutting match?
January 5, 201016 yr I realize that they are cutting a 2x4 stake in two, I just don't know the rules and parameters. Now if it was a steak cutting match, I would be all over that!

What is a 2x4 stake cutting match? Here is a thread that covers it all with pictures. viewtopic.php?f=24&t=2327 A 9MM would probably beat a S&W 500 since the semi-auto would be faster than a revolver. We have one guy that wins most of the time shooting a 9MM really fast. Additionally, you have a team mate to help you. Sometimes the matches come down to taking out a splinter or a hanging board so accuracy can count more than power. Of course, a hit with a 9MM is better than a miss with anything else.
January 5, 201016 yr I realize that they are cutting a 2x4 stake in two, I just don't know the rules and parameters. Now if it was a steak cutting match, I would be all over that! Only because you asked in the 1st thread Looks cool. I may be in for one of these.
January 5, 201016 yr That sounds like a lot of fun! I am definitely going to try and make one with my son! We might not be accurate but we have a ton of mags!
January 8, 201016 yr I took a tree down in Fort Dix a few years ago using a Browning M2. Ammo and firearm courtesy of the US Marines.

January 9, 201016 yr Who could afford to cut stakes with a M2? $10/round. Maybe 5 shot string? Could get expensive.
