Full description and what we offer
Messuite Tactical Maneuvers organizes Run & Gun biathlons—shooting sports events that combine fitness and firearms proficiency. These aren't casual outings. They're designed to expose weaknesses in your equipment, your technique, and your stamina.
A Run & Gun is a biathlon event with a predetermined course of 3-8 miles featuring shooting stages every half mile to 1.5 miles. Stages involve handgun only, long gun only, or combinations of both. You carry all your own ammo, water, and gear—no restocking along the way.
Scoring is based on both run time and shooting time. The match director determines weighting (typically 50/50, though shooting can be weighted heavier).
You can run or walk the course. These events can be done solo or as 2-person teams, and participants can bring family and friends as long as they start and finish together.
| Course | Distance | Stages | Ammo Count |
|---|---|---|---|
| Saturday | ~6 miles | 7 stages | 75 rifle, 50+ pistol |
| Sunday | ~4 miles | 5 stages | Shorter course |
Rifle distances extend to 600 yards. Every participant receives a t-shirt and awards are presented at day's end.
Range Officers needed—sign up like participants do. Free meals provided: supper Friday, three meals Saturday, two meals Sunday. RO arrival: March 27, 8:00 AM.
These events are not for beginners. You need established shooting fundamentals and firearms handling experience. New stressors and equipment failures will test your mental toughness. If you can't handle things when they go wrong, these events aren't for you.
