Default New guy from chandler, AZ

Hi everyone, Mike (MR.B) here,
I started shooting like 40? years ago (sometimes every week match night) but recently getting back into it after about 20-25 year layoff. been shooting local matches again with my semi auto's and recently one range is starting a "revolver night". I have a 629-1 4" that i haven't shot in many,many years that I'm going to give it a try with (never shot a revolver in a match shoot !) I have some reloading questions that I'm going to ask on the ammo thread,. just wanted to introduce myself and say HI !

Welcome.

You have a great range near you, Rio Salado Sports Club. They put on Steel matches every Tuesday Night. It's USPSA style and people shoot their autos and revolvers.

They also put on a revolver only match the first Sunday of every month.

Great bunch of guys and some of the best shooters in the world shoot these matches. They are also great for beginners.

Their main range is also open to the public.

Check out the ICORE match on the first Sunday of the month at Rio. It's Revolver only. Most guys shoot .38s but a good load for the .44 would be fun to shoot. Get yourself a few speed loaders and a holster and have at it.
Great bunch of people shooting there.
