[QUOTE="Mitch H., post: 2288457, member: 5662"] I will not be back to this match or any other at Oil Capital. I decided, against the warnings of several shooters, to take a new rifle shooter to this match. She wanted some trigger time with her new rifle so I saw this as an opportunity for her to learn with it. The first three stages were fun and creative. Kris got to learn about mechanical offset of a scope on close targets and got smoother with her rifle transitions. When we got to the last two stages, the other squad was on stage 4 so we went to stage 5. I was told by the RO on the other squad we would wait in the heat for them to finish stage 4. I asked him why we would do that when we have an empty bay and he said so they wouldn't have to wait on us to finish stage 5. We were then told we could wait or we could tear down the stages by ourselves. Since we had six shooters on our squad and they had three shooters left, either squad would have had to wait an equal amount of time. I guess the locals think their time is more important than the visitors to their range. This is the kind of ridiculous behavior that has kept any serious shooters/competitors from shooting at this range. I truly should have listened to my fellow shooters when they told us not to go to this match. [/QUOTE]
