We are now shooting steel targets rifle and pistol. No AP ammo please, any caliber 8mm or less center fire rifle. Pistol is any reasonable caliber that you would CC, Please no hand cannons. This is the most friendly shoot you will ever attend, if you have never been to a competition this is a good place to start.
We start each match at 10:00am sharp! We start by shooting to zero rifles until about Noon with a short break for lunch.

There are two courses of fire, the first is on the firing line under the covered area , the second is using a prop such as a vehicle, spool or anything else to make you find a good shooting position and take you out of your comfort zone.
We have targets for scopes and iron sights, The scope targets will be more of a challenge than the iron sight targets of course. You get 2 shots at each target with a spotter making corrections to help get you on target. Targets are from 200 to 500 yards with a round count of 16. The second course of fire is at the same targets you maybe closer to the targets or further from the targets, the round count is also 16 for a total of 32 rounds of rifle ammo. You will on the second course of fire engage pistol targets that will count for part of your overall score. Minimum rounds is 4 (bring more 20 or better) pistol targets are 25 to 100 yards. Yes 100 yards can be shoot with a short barrel CC pistol (maybe not with the first couple of rounds). The course of fire is designed to build your skill and confidence with a rifle and pistol and to be fun. You will see a lot of interesting rifles on the line, from WW1 to present.

The cost is Gents $20.00 ladies shoot free under 18 shoots free.
It's been amazing to watch shooters skills build though the years as well as a lot of fun!
