"Patriots Assemble!" is the rally cry as Zombie hunters are called to register for Zombies in the Heartland – Pandemic 2013 / 3 gun match presented by Hornady, Magpul and the Nebraska National Guard from May 31 through June 2, 2013 at the Heartland Public Shooting Park in Grand Island, Nebraska. Registration is limited and filling fast.

Back by popular demand, the match will feature 10 competitive stages, and five side match stages. Event sponsors will provide new and reactive zombie targets developed specifically for this match, with most targets falling over, moving, or exploding. Shooters will compete with pistol, rifle and shotgun. For a complete list of rules/equipment requirements, please go to the Zombie Guide aka Rules and Regulations.

The CQZ Shoot House will feature a maze of walls, smoke, lights, sound, and reactive zombie targets. Competitors will be armed with an airsoft M-4 with green laser and over 100 rounds of airsoft ammunition. Access to the Shoot House costs an additional $5, with proceeds donated to a military affiliated charity.
