Rango

April 28, 2013

MATCH RULES AND PROCEDURES:  

* All firearms to be handled ONLY in these designated areas: 1. Marked Safety Area (Outside range). 2. Load/Unload tables. 3. Firing line with RO present. * If you need to work on an EMPTY gun, please do it at a designated Safety Area. ( NO AMMO IN OUTSIDE SAFETY AREAS! ) * All SASS safety rules will apply. It is YOUR responsibility to know them. Current rulebook is available for viewing in The Telegraph Office. * All long guns should be carried muzzles up. This is not a hunting camp. You are in a crowded civilian range. Please pay careful attention to your gun handling OFF the firing line, as well as on. It may get a little crowded in here, so please exercise a little extra caution today. * Dry firing at the load/unload tables is prohibited. * Dropped rounds and shells are “dead”. Leave them where they fell, even if you have completed the stage. Someone will retrieve them for you. It's a muzzle control issue. * A round over the berm is a Match DQ. * Using any part of a wall or prop as a shooting rest is a Procedural penalty. * The shooter is responsible for staging/re-staging their firearms. A precariously staged gun that falls is not a prop failure. It is considered a dropped gun and a penalty will be applied as per SASS rulebook. * WAIT FOR THE BEEP! Do not try to anticipate it. Repeat offenders will earn a Spirit Of The Game penalty (:30 seconds). This is cheating by trying to get a head start and RO's will be on the lookout for it. * Cowboy Port Arms is defined as “ Standing fully upright, the butt of the rifle or shotgun AT or BELOW the gun belt and muzzle at SHOULDER level or higher, both hands on the gun, finger OUT of the trigger guard.” It's possible that other clubs are looser in their definition of Port Arms, but we see it as cheating if it's not the same for everyone. * Shotgun knockdowns must fall to score. Keep shootin'!

* Loading the rifle from the body is allowed, but ONLY to make up for an ejected round. * Loading the shotgun on the move is prohibited. You must have BOTH feet stopped before throwing shells into it. * Do not chamber rifle rounds until the gun is pointed downrange. This is now a 10 sec Minor Safety Violation. * Once a pistol clears leather & gets cocked, it HAS to be emptied. * If the pistol string is split up, Gunfighters will shoot the stage Duellist style. * This is a “No Alibi” match. Once you have hollered the start line or made a move for a gun, you are committed and there is no stopping until you have completed the stage.

• Several of us put a lot of hours into these matches for YOUR entertainment. Please show your appreciation by helping out where possible & hustling a little to keep the match moving along, so we can ALL get off the range together at a reasonable hour. There is no such thing as "shoot & scoot " in C.A.S.

The visuals may have been for kids, but the script was written for us big kids. The story of this animated movie is essentially a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the classic spaghetti westerns, but with lots of crazy characters. And though the story is predictable enough, it is presented in such a way that makes it a welcome change from the usual cartoon formula. Rango is rated PG for rude humor, language, action and smoking. Running time: 107 minutes. There was a champion reined cow horse named Rango in the '40's. Is there a connection to the movie? Who knows? Hope y'all hit what yer aimin' at! Stranger
