Perfect weather on Saturday and had a great time. Very interesting to make three passes on the same stage and see how consistent (or inconsistent) one could be.
The steel plates made it quick to move through a stage. They didn't do identical plates on a rack (except for one stage) but varied the size of the plates and the distance. It's amazing how different each stage could therefore be.
Another interesting thing: one was always counting on hearing the "ding" for hit feedback. Sometimes if you hit a round plate dead center, the "ding" was greatly diminished and you thought you missed so you cracked another round on it. This happened at some point to alot of people.

I'd like to take a moment and thank everyone who donated time, money, materials and to those who shot the match. For a hurriedly thrown together event, we managed to raise a little over $10,000 to send to the Wounded Warrior Project to directly help injured vets.
When we get everything sorted and a final tally, I'll post the final total. Thank you to everyone who contributed to a great experience for a great cause. I hope to see you all again next year, and bring some friends along!
