Last night we had our second Tuesday night Sporterifle shoot. We have enjoyed the experience and will be continuing on Tuesday nights and would love to see additional people out to join us.
The course of fire is designed to allow a wide participation from juniors, thru adults and including seniors.
The Target used is:
NRA A32 Target
The Sporterifle course of fire will consists of 30 record shots with a possible total of 300 points, fired slow-fire, single loaded from the standing position at 50 feet. Three targets shall be fired with ten record shots on each target. Each target shall have two shots on each record bull, with unlimited shots on the sighter. The time allowance shall be ten minutes for each ten shot target, including any fouler, sighting, and all record shots.
The scores are documented and sent in each week (postal match) and compared against teams not only within Western New York, but across New York State.
This new activity is a great opportunity to bring out your children, as juniors can shoot alongside us, (in fact, the league fees are lower for juniors to lessen the cost of bringing your family) and also a great opportunity to bring out your friends to shoot with us or for prospective members to come see the club. it’s a great way to spend a tuesday night!
The League fees are:
$2 Annual League Fee (Due at first Match Fired)
Adult Weekly Match Fees: $4 for members, $5 for non-members (this includes the ten-x range fee)
Junior Weekly Match Fees:$ 2.50
What to bring: A .22 Rimfire rifle, Any sights (including scopes) weighing lesss than 7 1/2 pounds and having a safe and reliable trigger. (Bolt guns are easiest to single load, but semi-autos work just fine)
Ammunition used, 30 rounds for score, you will probably want to bring some extra incase you want to shoot ahead for the following week if you won’t be able to attend, or if you want to get some additional practice in as well.
