Wow - a couple of veteran shooters brought this cool sport to our club, and we had our first Speed Steel shoot today. What a hoot!
It's fun, challenging, and did I say fun?
We had about 30 shooters, some with various semi-autos, a revolver shooter, and a couple of folks with pistol-caliber carbines. So cool. Lots of smiles! That the day was sunny and warm was welcome. I shot my 45 1911 Kimber. I made use of six magazines. Started the day with them all loaded and went through the danged things every run. I ended up going through 150+ rounds of ammo, gave 10 rounds to another shooter who had run dry too.
Nicest bunch of folks you could hope for. Older, young, men, women, different races. Everyone just enjoying a fun day at the range, slinging pistol ammo downrange!
This sport is a new thing for our club, and I am glad to see it here! I think the monthly matches are going to be very popular.
Regards, Guy
