The ORSA 250 - JULY 18

**2Alpha** · 05-24-2009, 05:47 PM

Announcing the first annual "ORSA 250," to be held 18 July. This will be a high round count Single Stack and Production USPSA match. There will be 7 stages, lots of targets, and guaranteed to be lots of fun. $35 entry fee, cash pay-back awards. Go to orsaap.com for the registration form.

Note - the title for the previous thread regarding this match indicated the date was 18 June, that was wrong - it is 18 July!

Looks like it's shaping up to be a great match, I hope some of you all can make it.

Is there any discount for ORSA members?

**ar15m4guy** · 06-24-2009, 06:05 PM

How hard is it to become a member of the ORSA? Is the waiting period a long one? Do they accept most anyone?

**BigJ45** · 06-24-2009, 09:55 PM

Since the money will be paid back out as prizes I think the entry fee is the same for everyone. However as far as bigger matches go this one is practically free to shoot. Most big matches are at least $100.00 to shoot. You don't have to be a ORSA member to shoot the match ar15m4guy. There is some delay to getting approved for membership and going through an orientation though.

I just became a member earlier this year. I went to one of the CMP courses and picked up an application. You get accepted faster if you have a sponsor, but membership in a similar type gun club or such will also work. It took a couple of months for my application to get through the board meeting and then they require you attend an orientation. Also if you don't get a sponsor you have the first year of membership to make friends and get them to sponsor you when you renew. My application process only took a couple of months using my membership in FFG sportsman club as my sponsor. Check their website to get the latest info on joining.

High round count single stack field courses would be a blast. Im way out of practice but some guy Jason beats me on my good days anyway...

What time do you think last shot will be fired? I have to work that night and would have to be able to get back to Nashvegas in enough time. I would love to shoot this if I can.

I hope I am able to make this match. It sounds like it's going to be alot of fun. It's going to be a long drive though.

Tim, I hate to predict a time for it to be over, but if you need to cut out early we will let you shoot through on the last couple of stages if it would help. Jason
