Looking for advice.

I've never done competition shooting, but I am really interested in it. Preferebly some sort of rifle competition, as I don't have a lot of experience with handguns. Anyone care to offer suggestions/experiences with the different types of events? I'm a decent shooter, and with enough practice I'm sure I could be a great shooter. Just need to figure out what I need to practice with

Maybe some of the others can make suggestions. The rifle shoots seem too disciplined and boring to me. But to each their own. For that reason I like the USPSA Three gun Matches over just plain IPSC pistol only. That way I get to handle a shotgun, rifle and pistol. Our clubs web site is cowboy, but if you go to bottom of page. You will find a little 1911 and CAR-15. Click on the CAR-15 and it will take you to my clubs USPSA Three Gun Page, pictures and rules. Hope it helps. It really is lots of fun.

Thanks for the information. I've watched the 3 gun shoots before, and they didn't really spike my interest too much.

Pulling back out in hopes someone else can offer me some advice.
