CDTSA 3 Gun
June 10, 2018 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
Directions to the range – On our website, we have a downloadable map to the Milo range. Please pay very close attention to the requirement to come down Range Road 223 and backtrack along Township Road 184. This keeps your dust out of our closest neighbours on Range Road 224, plus it’s a safer road (less hills). If this map is in any way unclear, please let me know and I’ll see if I can cook up a version that can be downloaded directly to Google Maps on your phone for turn-by-turn awesomeness.

Registration – This year we will be implementing Practiscore for registration and scoring. Details will be available later, but as in the past, people should start showing up at or before 9:00AM to check in, fill out guest passes, pay, etc. Registration will be followed by a safety briefing. We will begin the safety briefing at 9:30 AM sharp. Attendance at the safety briefing is mandatory. If you arrive after the safety briefing, you will be turned away.
Black Badge and other Certifications – We do not require holster courses. There may be parts of the courses of fire that are different if you do not have a holster course related to whether or not you start a stage with a round in the chamber of your pistol. We do, however, frequently require you to start with an empty pistol regardless of training or certification as part of the challenge for a specific stage. Our matches are set up to appeal to both 3-Gun aficionados as well as first-timers.
Round Count – Typically, we keep the match round count in the neighbourhood of 150, total. That is any combination of pistol, rifle, shot shells, and slugs. Prior to the match, we will announce an overall breakdown. For example “Match X on day Y will require 50 pistol, 75 rifle, 18 shot shells, and 6 slugs.” I will stress that you should always bring extra ammo. The round counts are for a ‘perfect’ score, and we don’t see many perfect scores. Additionally, if there is a failure of range equipment (timer, prop failure, etc), you may be required to reshoot a stage. I’m typically showing up to a match with probably 4x as much ammo as I need, but I like to make people feel good by missing a lot.
Amenities – We’re far enough from the nearest town that you cannot run off to get lunch, water, sunscreen, etc during the match. We’re an outdoor range. Sometimes it’s hot, sometimes it’s cold, sometimes it’s windy, sometimes it’s muddy. I would recommend bringing an entire change of clothes, just in case. If you have a cart for carrying all your stuff, bring it. Our range is built on a 1/4 section, so there’s some walking involved when going from stage to stage. Plan to move your stuff around by carrying it or using a cart. Bring lunch, water, sunscreen, bug spray, a hat, sunglasses, etc. See the rule book for information on carts.
Rules – Our official rule book is here: http://www.cdtsa.ca/uploads/1/2/7/1/…2016_final.pdf
Ammunition – See the rule book for information on permissible ammunition. The Coles Notes version is that we do not allow any ammunition with steel penetrator cores. If your bullets stick to a magnet, they will not be allowed. NOTE: The bullet cannot stick. Steel-cased ammo with lead-core bullets is 100% fine.
