Ranges for the standard .22 rifle silhouettes remain at 44, 66, 77, and 95 yards, optics allowed, and for those that are either unable to or not desiring to shoot standing, we still have a bench rest class.

.22 Pistol silhouette Ranges are 22, 33, 44, and 55 yards. Standing only - hey, it's full size pins here, guys. Pistol matches to be run concurrently with .22 rifle matches on the upper rifle range.

Standard classifications will apply for rifle, including senior rifle, junior rifle, benched rifle, and standing. Pistol classes includes a junior class for experienced youngsters, and a standing class for everyone else.

Fee will be $5.00 as always, with food and beverages available, including hot dogs and Frank's famous homemade chili.

And there will be a bonus shooting period for everyone at the end, as time allows.



And, lest we forget the Service Rifle Matches, here's your chance to exercise those old military rifles on our 100 yard range. Any service rifle, in original or altered configuration, from any country, will be allowed, including current production rifles, such as the AR-15, M1 Carbine, Saiga's, etc.

Course of fire will be slow (offhand), with rapid fire in Sitting or Kneeling (your choice), and prone position at the end.

And of course, there will be the ever popular "exploding soda can shoot" following each match!


The Service Rifle Schedule is as follows:

6/26

Next Date T.B.A.


Both types of matches will be held on Sundays, beginning at 2:00 P.M. , and are open to members and nonmember's alike. Shooting order will be first in, first out, and late comers will be accommodated accordingly.

bump. Next .22 silhouette match is next weekend. I won't be able to make this one, but they are open to the public if anyone wants to go anyway. I am planning on making the June 26th service rifle match though.

Nice! I'm usually up there at least one day each weekend, and my wife is also one of the bartenders there. Will be on vacation the next few weekends, but after that lemme know if you wanna check it out or need a sponsor.

Thanks. I was there Saturday with Ray C and may have talked to your wife since I was invited in for something to wet my whistle. Great club, very friendly and I felt very welcome.

I have the application and Ray C is going to sponsor me since he knows me from NVPL. He can verify that I am worthy of membership.

Looking forward to joining.

Sounds like a great shoot. Too bad I'm way out in the boonies with limited transportation options. No one going to Wolcott from East of Foxwoods, I suppose?
