December 30, 201114 yr Sorry to make a new post, but im going to dicks for ammo now and need to know. This is my first Steel shoot. Also i'll be Shooting my stock 1911, So can i shoot production with that? or do i have to go Single stack?
December 30, 201114 yr I think in steel there is just pistol, revolver, rimfire, carbine, each with an iron sights or open category. It's not like USPSA divisions. You would be pistol iron with your 1911 assuming you have no optics or compensator. They say minimum of 125 for 5 stages, but that's assuming you don't miss once. Sometimes they run 6 stages making minimum round count 150. To be safe I bring 200 rounds at a minimum.
December 30, 201114 yr Author Really ! Ill shoot revolver and pistol then No speedloaders for the 357 but they can wait an extra 3 seconds for me. Thanks brother!
December 30, 201114 yr Really ! Ill shoot revolver and pistol then No speedloaders for the 357 but they can wait an extra 3 seconds for me. Thanks brother! I'd pick up a few speed loaders, don't need 5 or more of them, but it's always good to have them, and if you only pick up 2 or 3 a lot of time when we set up the NJGF squads at OB we will help reload the speed loaders if someone need the help. Also if you think you can dump you wheel and load up again and have your next shot in 3 seconds, your doing better than 99.999999999999% of other wheel gun guys...

December 30, 201114 yr Author I should have about 1000 rds of light 38's loaded. How far are we shooting from

December 30, 201114 yr I dont remember hard numbers off hand but I dont think any further than 20 yards.
December 30, 201114 yr I dont remember hard numbers off hand but I dont think any further than 20 yards. Do they run official WCS stages or do they make up there own at CJ?
December 30, 201114 yr Do they run official WCS stages or do they make up there own at CJ? Make up their own. Bring enough ammo that you can have 5 full magazines for the 6 stages. You'll come home with extra ammo.
December 30, 201114 yr I dont remember hard numbers off hand but I dont think any further than 20 yards. Echo this. Haven't seen anything further than 20 yards that I can recall.
December 30, 201114 yr The pits at CJRPC are around 23 yards deep. Although there are two that are far longer. =)
December 30, 201114 yr Also if you think you can dump you wheel and load up again and have your next shot in 3 seconds, your doing better than 99.999999999999% of other wheel gun guys... That hurts my feelings harold.
December 30, 201114 yr From what I've experienced they'll have a couple courses that are spread out and distant. A couple that are mid range and closer. And then one course that's just an all out speed course that's close. But yeah usually nothing further than 20 yards and if it is at that distance it's usually one of those big plates. I like those big plates
December 30, 201114 yr Author I'll have to do some 20 yard practice shots tonight lol Shore Shot anyone?
December 31, 201114 yr That hurts my feelings harold. Dude, he's talking about doing that with no speed loaders Alexander..
