AGC Member, Joe Benskin - Several months ago it was brought up about using jacketed bullets on the Silhouette range. With the issues we are having on the silhouette range, I think this needs to remain a match exception so it is being controlled by the match director. V.

4 Minutes Continued Volume 15 Issue 1 January 2015 Page 4 VI. NEW BUSINESS Incident Report - AGC Chief Range Officer, Terry Humbargar - On November 26th, Chief Range Officer was on duty and cited AGC member John Steinmeyer for rule number 6 which states: Range officer commands are to be obeyed immediately. John was shooting a diamond target at 25 yards (on a target stand that was too high for that distance) with a scoped AR. I observed him fire three shots that hit approximately 3 feet from the top of the 100 yard impact berm. I went to him and asked which diamond he was shooting at. John said he was shooting at the top diamond. I asked him to shoot at the center diamond which would keep the rounds lower in the impact berm. The member was argumentative towards my command to shoot at another target. I then cited and informed him that he was suspended from club privileges until the next BOD meeting. No additional shots were fired and he did pack up his gear and leave. The majority of the board did not feel that there was a violation of club rules. A comment was made by AGC President, Emmanuel Boyd: We should not argue with our range officers as they are in place to protect the safety of the range. AGC/CRC State Match - AGC President, Emmanuel Boyd - I have a brochure stating that there will be a Silhouette State match in May. AGC member Scott Dahms will run the match. Scott explained that part of the match will be run at the AGC and the long range portion will be run at Colorado Rifle Club. In order to run the match, he will have to attend an RO class to become RO certified e Motion to approve the match to be run be Scott Dahms once he is RO qualified. VII. VIII. IX.
