Match starts @ 10;00 am
We do not use paid target setters, so come and help set targets or stay a little bit after the match and help put them away
Match 1, 40 shots
Match 2, 40 shots
This lets folks that shoot both divisions (HUNTING RIFLE and MATCH RIFLE) shoot both rifles
If weather is really awfully we may decide to shoot one [1] 60 shot match
Shooters who know this sport will help you get to know the course of fire and help with zeros
You may wish to see if you can get a good 40 yd ‘zero’ before you come out
Most shooters use standard velocity ammo 22 LR only (CCI Blue box works well is many rifles).
You will be shooting Off Hand without the use of a sling or special shooting coat
Distances are 40 yds for the chicken, 60 yds for the pig, 77 yds for the turkey and 100 yds for the ram. We shoot the same course of fire as Hi Power Silhouette but our targets are 1/5 as big and 1/5 the distance so this is great practice for Hi Power Silhouette [HPS]
Gate opens @ 8:15am and closes @ 10:15am
Match fee is $10.00 to include all matches shot that day
