We're driving and since I will be retired (U.S. history teacher) then, I'm looking forward to "soaking in" as much as possible of a part of the country I have never visited. And there is a lot of history in that area and even into NM area...Get it all... Welcome to retirement.. Texas Lizard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bgavin Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Q: Newbie question: how many of the bigger matches have RV accommodations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward R S Canby, SASS#59971 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 4 minutes ago, bgavin said: Q: Newbie question: how many of the bigger matches have RV accommodations? Your question probably deserves a new thread. Many matches allow dry camping on range and some have numerous RV sites. A few (for example Land Run) have electric and and water hookups. The New Mexico Championship this year will have paved RV parking with electric hookups and nearby water. Some matches are located in resort areas (for example the 4-Corners Regional) that have plenty of nearby RV camping with full hookups at commercial and government-owned parks. End-of-Trail, the international championship and Winter Range, the national championship have both onsite camping and nearby RV Parks. Naturally any onsite camping with utilities is in high demand. Bordertown, the subject of this thread has limited onsite camping but nearby RV parks with full hookups. At Bordertown my family stays at the Tombstone Territories RV park - mere ten minute drive from the shooting range. There are other RV parks in and around Tombstone. RVing fits in very well with the CAS sport. Major matches have been described as RV rallys built around a shooting match. There is much socializing in camping areas after the guns are cleaned.

C.N. Double Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Updates for our "new" Plainsman match-- This year's Plainsman side match is sponsored by SliX-Prings and SliX-Shot Nipples. The Plainsman categories include Modern Men, Modern Senior Men, Traditional Men, Traditional Senior Men, and Ladies (any age/rifle). The "modern" category allows any SASS-legal Plainsman rifle, but the "traditional" category prohibits the use of an ejector in the rifle -- detailed category rules. Don't forget to check the Bordertown website regularly for future updates. Even though the main CAS match is full, you can still sign up for any of the side events (including the warm-up).

Tn Tombstone Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 There are a few of us that will be shooting the Tennessee State on 10th - 12th and leaving from there to head west. We will be spending a little time where ever it is warm enough to ride motorcycles for a week or so then heading to Tombstone. See everyone there. My two favorite matches in one month. Way back when, I would run by T-Bones for a little informal match called Comin at Cha but he moved that one around so it does not work for me at this point. Already packing and loading. Heading to my home away from home in about two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.N. Double Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 All you Bordertown Wild Bunch shooters, plan to come check out the Bolt Action Military Match after we finish WB on the 2nd day. The course of fire will require 15 rounds, will be shot standing/unsupported, and includes targets between 75-150yds. Also, here's the round count for the 8-stage WBAS match: 196 Pistol 54 Rifle 36 Shotgun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
