Eastern Nebraska Practical Shooters is proud to host the second multigun match of the year on April 26! This match is open to the public and will be held at Eastern Nebraska Gun Club (Directions (https://www.google.com/maps/place/Eastern+Nebraska+Gun+Club/@41.016299,-96.107645,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x87940c55bc3772af:0x77a8e343f5e43062)) near Louisville.
We will be using the 300 meter range for this match, so please know where your rifle hits out to 300 meters (further than 300 yards)!
Hopefully those of us shooting Heavy Metal will have fewer gun problems this time around... But you should shoot it with us! For the fun of it!
We have a strict attendance policy. If you are not in line to register and pay by 8:30AM, you will not be allowed to shoot!
Online Pre-Registration: (opens April 12 @ 8:00AM) https://clubs.practiscore.com/uspsa-april-multigun-match/register (https://clubs.practiscore.com/uspsa-april-multigun-match/register)
Please note that even if you pre-register you still have to be at the range and pay the match fee before 8:30AM the day of the match! It would be even better if you could show up earlier to help setup!
Online Payment will be available here: http://www.easternnebraskapracticalshooters.com/schedule.html (http://www.easternnebraskapracticalshooters.com/schedule.html) (There is a 3% surcharge to cover credit card fees)
Match Fee: $15.
Schedule Is As Follows:
- Setup will start at 7:15AM. We appreciate any help we can get with setup. The more people we have, the faster we can get shooting!
- Registration closes at 8:30AM but you definitely want to show up sooner if you can. We will, as always, do our best to accommodate squadding requests but your chances are exponentially better at getting those requests fulfilled if you register online or show up very early on match day!
- Safety and New Shooter Briefing begins at 8:40AM.
- Shooters’ Meeting starts at 9:00AM.
- Match begins immediately following the Shooters’ Meeting.
- After match, all shooters are expected to help tear down stages and put away equipment! Please stay to help!
Equipment You Will Need:
- A rifle chambered in 5.45x39mm or larger [an AR15 in 5.56x45mm is the most common].
- A shotgun chambered in 20 gauge or larger [a 12 gauge semi-auto shotgun is the most common].
- A handgun chambered in 9x19mm or larger.
- A holster for your handgun. It is highly recommended you get one designed specifically for your gun and not a universal holster. The trigger must be covered by the holster.
- Plenty of ammunition for all three guns. It never hurts to have too much ammo!
Not sure what division you have the equipment for [see Appendix A starting on page 62]? Want to get more in-depth with the rules? Read more here: http://www.uspsa.org/document_library/rules/2014/RifleShotgunMultigun%20Rules%201-1-2014final.pdf (http://www.uspsa.org/document_library/rules/2014/RifleShotgunMultigun%20Rules%201-1-2014final.pdf)
We also have a couple ENGC range rules:
- No shot larger than #7 in your shotgun. That means that only #7 shot and higher number birdshot types are allowed (#8 shot is very commonly used). Using larger (lower number) shot is grounds for a disqualification for unsafe equipment.
- No steel shot ammunition! All shotgun ammunition must be lead shot! We shoot steel targets at close range and steel shot has a much greater chance of causing ricochets. This is a DQ-able offense!
- No steel core, tracer, or armor piercing ammunition is allowed. This includes M855/SS109 "green tip" ammunition. Please make sure you are shooting lead core ammunition. Using these kinds of ammunition will also result in a DQ. This is because we are almost always going to have steel rifle targets at a match and it beats up our steel and carries a higher risk for ricochets.
If you have any questions please reply to this thread or PM me! I will do what I can to help you out. :)

Note that the online registration for this doesn't open for another couple of days. So in the meantime, you should instead go pre-register for the May All-Classifier match and the May Man-vs-Man match instead!
