Rimfire Sporter match at Lincoln Ikes
« on: April 07, 2013, 08:57:16 AM »
This Saturday (the 13th) is the first Rimfire Sporter match of the year.  Match starts at 11:00 following the Vintage Rifle match, with sight in starting as soon as the vintage event is done. 

Pretty much any sporter type rifle is allowed - see below for more info.  If you have a target style rifle you can still shoot, we'll just put you in an unofficial "unlimited" class.

I gotta see if I can rework some things and try to make it out. Sounds like fun! The old Mossberg has yet to see a range since I've owned it  :-[

This appears to be very "kid" friendly.  Yes?

Absolutely.  That's the whole point of this game.  The target itself is very big, so anyone can shoot and hit it.  The 10 and X rings are tiny, though, so it's still a challenge for expert shooters.

Bump....if you want to attend but don't have an appropriate rifle let me know.  I'll have a loaner available, if you provide the ammo.
