Practical-Tactical Shotgun Match

Similar to an IDPA match but firearm used is a shotgun. Stages include steel and clay targets.  One stage is usually a “Walk and Stalk" stage where targets are engaged from shooting boxes with no preview of the stage (blind).   Most stages will have about 12 targets and the "Walk and Stalk" up to 25.  Reloads are on the clock and minimum 5 round capacity shotgun but no maximum limit on capacity.  Hunting and home defense shotguns are welcome.  Please remove plugs from hunting shotguns to allow 5 shells (4+1) to be loaded. See below in the More Info section for additional match information.

Sanners Practical-Tactical Shotgun Match (September 2019)

What a day for a match! the squads may have been small, but the competition was not. after the dust settled and the last shotgun hull fell to the ground, it was Tim H taking the overall top spot as well as top open semi-auto shotgun. behind him was Jeremy D taking second place overall and first place open pump shotgun. Lynn R took 3rd place overall. Nate W took first place in the limited pump category and Jake S took first place in the limited semi-auto category. The results are posted here:

There were several new faces today. I hope they had a good time and will return next year as this match was the last one of the year.

And a special thanks goes out to the RSOs & volunteers that donate their time to not only run this match, but show up early to set up the stages. Without them, this match would not exist. It's not easy moving & setting up steel, but I hope the reward of shooting the match is enough to keep them coming back.

Thank you everyone for tearing down the stages. it makes our lives easier and is appreciated.
