    I hope that you decide to shoot the matches with us this year. We usually have between 40 and 60 shooters. We run two pairs of shooters at a time so things progress quickly.

    The first match of the season is scheduled for this Thursday April 9, 2015. Lets hope that the weather cooperates!

    Thanks to everyone who came out to the RBRR .22 Bowling Pin match Thursday evening. The rain held off and we had a great turnout.

    We are currently shooting a 22 rifle bowling pin side match immediately after the pistol match. I believe this is scheduled to be done for the rest of the season. The same rules apply and it also has only a $1 entry fee.

    I hope everyone is able attend the next match! Bring a 22 pistol, a 22 rifle, $2 and lots of ammo for a fun low cost evening!
