Ten X Youth Shooting Program
We are planning to soft launch our Youth Shooting program at the end of August, with an official launch in September. The group will shoot on the second and fourth Fridays of each month, starting at 6:30pm and running until 8:00pm, give or take, based on attendance. In order for this very important initiative to be successful we are going to need several instructors, as well as range officers and other volunteers to make the program work. If you have experience as a three-position shooter, or if you are an NRA Certified Rifle Instructor, we most definitely need your help. We also need certified NRA Range Safety Officers whose only responsibility will be to run/monitor the range. If you aren’t a certified instructor or you are not a certified range officer, we still need your help. Members can help to get the range set up, help the young shooters to set up and break down, etc.
There will be an initial meeting of […]

By Gail Fechter, on April 24th, 2017 Well this past Saturday we opened the outdoor range. Thank you to all that came out and pitched in to get the place ready for the season. We were able to clean up the kitchen, stat house and cut down some overgrown trees. With the pistol range under water between 25 yards and 50 yards in some spots, and it being just a bit to cool to do any painting, we were limited to placing the target stands in for now. Painting can be done when the weather warms up a bit. New targets were made for both 25 and 50 yards, and the water was turned on and ready to go. So all and all it was a pretty good day.
FYI – Depending on how much rain we get in the next few days there still may be some standing water around near the 50 yard targets, so just be prepared for some soggy spots. As far as the rifle range goes, well it looks like it will […]

By Editor, on April 23rd, 2017 The next General Membership meeting will be Monday, May 1, 2017 at 7:30 pm at the Indoor Range. The old saying is that April showers bring May flowers. Hopefully, we will soon be done with showers altogether for a while. Because the outdoor range looks more like Lake Ontario than a shooting range:
With May upon us, we are moving towards the outdoor shooting season and the WNYOPL League. We had a clean up party on April 22 to help get the outdoor range into shape. Thank you to Mitch V. for heading up this project.
Speaking of projects, we have accomplished much in a few short weeks. More on that in this month’s newsletter, but a public thank you needs to be made to the following members: Al H., Roy S., Dale S., Matt G., Mitch V., Jim M., Jim G., and Bill F., among many others.
Please take a moment to read this month’s newsletter. You can download it by clicking this link.

By Editor, on March 26th, 2017 Happy Post-St.-Patrick’s-Day Weekend! The April Newsletter is attached below for downloading.
Spring is rapidly approaching now, which means we will start shooting outdoors later in April. A new gate combination will be included in the paper newsletter mailed to members in good standing. If you do not receive your April newsletter in the mail before the General Meeting on April 3, you either did not pay your dues, pay your work assessment, or your address information needs updating.
Many thanks to member Matt G. who worked very hard to ensure that Ten X won an NRA Development Grant in the amount of $3,000 to fund a junior program. Matt also was able to secure a monetary donation from Cabella’s to assist the program. This is why it is important to be a member of the NRA and we would be happy to help renew your membership in NRA or help you join. Ten X is proud to be an official NRA recruiter club.
As we look to move outdoors, we […]
