UCOA Multigun

 For those of you who do not know we have a multigun match once a month at our club. Tentative dates for this year are April 16th, May 14th, June 11th, July 9th, August 13th, September 10th will be our 3rd Annual Man vs. Man Steel Challenge and the last match of the year will be on October 8th. The matches are held at the U.C.O.A. club in Findlay, OH located at 6943 Twp Rd 243. The matches start at 12:00 p.m. and setup starts at 8 a.m. Chamber flags are required for all long guns. If you do not have them they will be available for $1.00 each. The matches consist of one rifle stage, one shotgun stage, and one pistol stage there will also be 2 multigun stages consisting of rifle/shotgun, shotgun/pistol or pistol/rifle. NO STEEL CORE AMMO. Rim-fire caliber pistols and rifles are allowed at the matches. This is a great chance for shooters to become more familiar with all of their weapons and put them into realistic scenarios. The maximum round count for the matches is 150 rounds rifle, 50 rounds pistol 25 rounds birdshot and 25 rounds of slugs. New shooters should arrive by 11:30 for a safety overview. We will be using the 100 yd range for the rifle stage at a few of the matches this year. Anyone that has questions can feel free to email paul.ruhland@ucoa-findlay.com

The matches are registration only and registration for the matches begins on the Monday after each match. If you want to shoot our match you will need to email me and register. We are limiting the matches to 40 shooters so we can move along quickly and allow the match to run smoother for everyone.

For the matches to continue into the future we will need some people to help with setup and also to be Range Officers for the matches. If you are interested in being a range officer we would provide you with a training class. Range Officers are the people that run everyone through the stages. We will need at least 3 Range Officers every match. If you are interested in becoming a range officer or in helping to setup the match please email me.

The cost of the matches to $25.00 per shooter. If you setup and tear down you shoot for free. This will be limited to the first 5 shooters that email me on the Monday after the match. All shooters will pay $25.00 at the beginning of the match. If you helped setup and tear down after everything is put away I will refund your $25.00. If you stick around and help tear down you will be refunded $10.00. If you wish to leave that is fine and the $25.00 will be your match cost.

Feel free to email me back with any questions you may have.

Thanks,

Paul Ruhland
