New Stage Ideas for Mini - Matches

[Rush]

I reckon we need a beat up old wreck of a car to sit and in and shoot out of/from behind, seen a few good setups like that on Youtube

[Lennard]

We had a car on the range before, but it's not exactly the safest thing to have on a range.
And it would be impossible to insure that we don't get ricochets.

[Rush]

Ah yup, makes sense. If it was used right and only in certain situations surely it could be made safe? Or is that the reason its not there anymore?

[Lennard]

I wasn't there when they had the car, but to my understanding it was taken away because it was unsafe.

[Adrian]

That is correct, the car became to much of a problem, the bullet would usually travel around inside the car and exit taking someone out with a ricochet.

How about...
A couple of sliding targets (bit like the one that was on a rope a while ago), that slide into and out of view.  Once chance at it.  Put a no-shoot inbetween.   Shot through a window.

A rabit hutch covered in black, so you can't see the target - have to aim without site picture unless you go prone.  Put a puddle in front of it to stop going prone. Use  mini targets

A speed stage, with say 10 targets set out a bit like a steel match, compulsory mag change. Two if you want. Finish on a long distance popper.
Could vary it by forcing targets to be shot in sequence, on either side of the range - left right left right left...

Roger that on the car. I spose if a similar situation was wanted you could just sit on a seat and shoot through an existing window in a wall etc

Id like to see more poppers too personally, they seem fun and I like the idea of one quick shot then on to the next one. Last week I got to the popper and it had fallen over already though (think that happened for a few people?) so I guess they can be a bit finicky?
