.22 Long Range Rifle Silhouette Sept 30

[Hawkeye7br]

OK guys & gals, time for another long range rimfire match.
As Before:
9:45-10:15 registration
10:15 Shooters meeting
10:30 Final zero shooting practice
11:00 Shoot for score

This will again be a 40 round match, shooters can be squaded together. Still looking for someone to post that first perfect score!! Rifles can be magazine or tube fed. New shooters can contact me for a full description or look back thru prior posts going back to our April match.

Adult $15
Stand alone Junior $10
Junior with paid adult- free

We plan setup on Friday night, so there is minimal work on Saturday morning and we can have a timely start. Match runs about 3 hours. Shooter recap meeting to follow match with payout awarded at that time.

Hope to see all of you again!!

This will turn into an all day event when no one misses.

The 75 yard chicken at 110 or 165 should break any ties quickly.

I have a shootoff rack already built. We may just put it out for a fun option.

I kinda doubt it. It's not a cutthroat event, yet, most people are shooting sporter rifles, and attendance is good. But when the heavy guns start coming out and the perfect scores start going up, you will probably be able to get a match in in two hours flat.

Um, where?

The match? (ask better questions, get better answers )


Riley Conservation Club, which for reference to you is more-or-less Terre Haute.

Um, where?

Don't you just hate it when the OP leaves out vital info? What an idiot. Just ask his wife, she'll tell ya.

Yep, RCC is on the southeast corner of Terre Haute, just a mile off state road 46. Easy access, unless you take I-70.

I love that middle place and next to last place pays money!
These are the harder achievements to accomplish

This promises to be a good match, everyone that was new has had a month to tweak their gear, test new ammo, change scopes. We're set up to run 20 shooters easily, we'll have some swingers available for any extras. I'd like to keep the squads to no more than 4 shooters to keep people involved and the match running smoothly.

Weather forecast is for sunny skies, 70 degrees, and zero chance of rain.

 

[Litlratt]

What time Friday night?

 

[Armchair Operator]

Fine, fine, I guess I'll go ahead and shoot a perfect 40 this time...

 

[Hawkeye7br]

To be clear, we're not limiting entries. To the contrary, we have a plan B to allow bigger participation without the match dragging.

Set up will be Friday night. In the past we started at 6pm, but given the lesser daylight (and that we want a little practice after setup) I'm gonna start at 5pm.

Perfect scores will be decided by the shootoff. We may just put it up with a break point that all scores above "x" will advance to shoot-off. Will think on it......

 

[Litlratt]

Forecast of 72 and sunny. A beautiful day to shoot some steel.

 

[blacknwhite]

I'll be there, bringing 3 with me so we will have enough for a squad.

 

[Hawkeye7br]

We got set up quickly tonight, 11 people for set up & practice! We should have great weather and a lot of fun! We'll see how the scores play out tomorrow. 3 juniors & 2 women are in the mix.

Live report--this is a very humbling sport.
