That's awesome.
I ran my first multi-gun match last Saturday (dang, but that's a bunch of work). Here's the stage and scenario:
__________________________________________
BCSC Tactical Match
Stage: “B-R-A-I-N-S!!”
Scenario:
It’s finally happened. A mutated strain of Pediculosis pubis is causing zombie-like symptoms in those bitten after 4 hours...but doctors have an antidote if you can get there in time. Your best buddy has just been bitten and has passed out. You must carry/drag him to the aid station, clearing the way with your handgun. Once you drop him off there, you see other zombies on their way. These are the Type II...fast, scary and on the hunt. You find a rifle, a few mags and go join the fight. Remember, the only way to kill a zombie is…shoot ‘em in the head.
Course of Fire:
Stage begins at P1, standing, hands at sides, holstered handgun loaded to regulation capacity, additional magazines on body. Rifle is staged at P2, empty, mag loaded with 5 rounds next to it. Additional full rifle magazines on body or at P2.
Remember: At least one shot must be to the head on all targets. At the buzzer, engage with handgun T1-T2 with at least 2 shots each, tactical sequence. Pick up dummy and carry / drag from P1 to P2, engaging T3-T7 with at least 2 shots, on the move, strong side only, tactical priority. Drop off dummy at P2, engage T8 (who is feasting on a doctor) with at least 2 shots. Empty remaining rounds into T8 to slide lock / empty. Stage empty handgun on top of barrel at P2, muzzle downrange. Pick up rifle, load with 5-round mag, move to P3 and engage T9-10 with at least 2 rounds each. Reload and advance, engaging T11-T16 with at least 2 shots each, avoiding no-shoots, any sequence (do NOT break 180 rule).
Scoring: Vickers Count, all targets must have at least one head shot, otherwise targets will be scored with a miss.
Minimum Round Count: 16 rifle, 16 pistol
Set-Up Notes: 19 IDPA targets, 1 barrel, 1 dummy
Hard cover to be incorporated in T3-T7 and T9-T16. T3-T8 should be < 3yd shots. RSO to confirm handgun is empty at P2 before picking up rifle, must not allow shooter to reholster handgun until stage is complete. Watch 180 deg rule at T9-T16.

Zombies are the ideal "PC" target group.
There are very few of them who will pursue defamation through legal channels and any bleeding hearts who take up there cause would be laughed at.
Meanwhile, they are real human, if gruesome, images to use on targets and even objecting to putting cross hairs over them is laughable.
They can be placed for inclusion in any scenario and everyone will support killing them.
And it's a lot of fun...no worries about repercussions from moral issues to cloud your enjoyment ;D ;D ;D ;D

Now they need to do a cross-promotion with these guys: http://darkotictargets.com/ (http://darkotictargets.com/)

Of course Bob Hope was way ahead of his time on scooping out Zombies.

One of my local gun shops has 3D zombie targets that bleed when you shoot them. I guess it was a couple of these. http://zombieindustries.com/shop/category/bleeding-zombie-targets/

Looks like robots are the bad guys. One was blamed for the Japan Nuke disaster....and here is a comment.
Its the Robots fault
That's right, blame the Robot. He has no union to back him up. He can't sue for defamation. Next we'll see that he's also having an affair with a reality TV star!
Space Aliens might be more of a problem. Here is a link to a story about some lawyers who are forming an anti-defamation league for them.

Starting to look bad for Zombies too...here is their league home page http://zadl.org/
