Had a great time shooting back at TASC again. This time I did a little better than usual shooting clean all day with no miss penalties. The usual suspects and some new ones also rose to the occasion so I finished fourth. I shot too slowly on the first stage and a failure to seat my mag on stage three cost me a lot of points.

Stage One is called ‘Must Get Milk’ you engage paper targets from the first box, then run to the second for steel, and then enter the barricades for some closer targets. A fun stage but went a little too slow and had a couple extra shots on steel.

Stage Two is “Out of Sight” I shot this one very well. The last array of targets has a head shot that you really need to focus on. I took three shots at it and scored the two I needed.

Stage Three is “Soup or Salad” where you have to start with an unloaded gun, holding a plastic knife and fork. Had a great plan on this one but didn’t seat my third mag and then took too long to fix it. Finished with getting all my hits though.

Stage Four is the classifier “Six in Six” which is three separate strings shooting the same three targets within six seconds. The first is at a great distance, six shots mandatory reload and six more. At this distance few of us got a shot in past the reload and I elected to just try for six hits. Second string is six shots strong hand. Last string included here is six shots weak hand. I did ok with 13 hits. A lot harder then it looks!
