Video of me shooting the Blackwater 3-Gun match on January 10, 2010. Great match, although it could have stood to warm up a little…

Cool video Chris but it’s making me a little motion sick! :wink:

Nice video. Seems like the guys up there can be pretty creative with all the things they have access to

Cool video. Looks like a fun shoot.

I’m jealous of the props, though we did get a couple of cars with some gas pumps for a local “stop-and-rob” setup at the range I belong to.

Cameraman needs one of these: Homemade Steadicam

Brutal! All this video was shot on a Kodak Z8i handheld camera, which is lightweight, compact, full HD, inexpensive, and the stabilization sucks. I may have to give that homemade steadycam a try.

The $15 from Wally World does wonders dude believe me.

Those plates on 3 and 4 were a killer. At least we learned that 25 yards and mod chokes don’t work at all with 7.5s or 8s. We’ll see what we can come up with for next month.

And yes we are extremely luck having Blackwaters support of 3GUN and shooting sports in general.

Great video.

Does BW hold this once a month?

The GA crew would like to shoot one of their matches one weekend.

The matches are held monthly, but they are not run by BW. Neal and I run these matches (Tidewater 3gun). They are usually shot on the 2nd Sunday of the month unless there is a conflict. In February the match is on the 3rd Sunday because of Valentines Day. For info you can go to http://www.blackwatershooters.com. They have bunkhouses available for people that want to stay on site if you are travelling.

Great shooting! What upper/optic combo were you using?

The upper was one of my builds - MSTN 17" barrel with SJC Titan compensator, JP Lightweight BCG, PRI Competition handguard. The optic was a Trijicon ACOG TA-11 on a LaRue mount. It’s been my 3gun rifle for the better part of three years.

I should have some more video up this coming Sunday.

Chris,
Very nice. Wes built me a 3GM upper last summer with:

Daniel Defense upper
Noveske 16" Light Recce barrel
Diamondblack coated Young Natl Match BCG with LMT bolt
PRI tan FF Competition tube
PRI/MSTN comp
Aimpoint T-1 Micro on LT high mount

I love it- light and handy, and I wanna try it in some comps…
