I participated in the Walls of Steel at Wallum Lake Rod & Gun in Harris Rhode Island this past weekend. Most fun I've ever had with a handgun. It consists of 6 stages, with roughly 30 plates per stage. Shooting against a timer. They're holding another one at the end of September and I'll certainly be going back. If anyone else wants to go, let me know and we can make a day of it.

Here's a couple of videos of the fun. Enjoy...

It was a TON of fun. A bit of a learning curve though. Which is part of the reason I'm anxious to do it again. We shot it twice... One round in the morning, one in the afternoon. I managed to shoot almost an entire minute faster through the timed course in the afternoon vs. the morning session. I went through just over 600 rounds for the day, with my buddy shooting the same amount.

It was VERY well organized. Great group of people that were happy to give advise and help out. I was certainly impressed.

nice shooting gixer... I just watched your vid I can say your shooting is solid for someone at learning curve on this type of sport. I hope I can do that shooting match next year it looks interesting.
