300 yard Reduced 3x600 in Northern NJ

[Belly Benchrester]

The ANJRPC has given me 3 dates at Cherry Ridge Range in Highland Lakes NJ. This will be the first ever year cherry ridge range is having 3x600 F class and sling matches. F Bench will also be incorporated for shooters with the physical handicap to compete from the prone position.

Trophies/awards and a raffle of some cool prizes will also be given away for the buy in of $20 dollars to shoot the match. We are urging new shooters to dip their toes in the competition waters.

Attached I have added a match bulletin.

Thank you!

WE just got silver mountain targets last year for the across the course matches, however at this time if the match was tomorow we would be using manuals.

From now till june if I can get the logistics for E targets for 3x600 for both sling and F to work out, we will give it a go.

Huge shoutout to G96 cleaning solvents for being our first supporter of our inaugural 3x600 season at cherry ridge. G96 products are a Passaic county NJ based company, where the range is also located! Local companies supporting local shooters is cool to see! The best CLP and the market too! Smells like bubble gum and works really well on carbon.

The winners and competitors of these matches will be receiving plenty of goodies! More to come from some great companies! We’re trying to put the Win back in winning!

Thank you Jim Kelbly for donating 30 and 34MM picatinny scope rings to our prize table!

One of the classiest companies in our sport.

Just to confirm, the matches will be shot at 300 yards, yes?

I've shot many XTC matches at Cherry Ridge but not in the past year - did they add a 600 yd range?

[Belly Benchrester]

We had a great time! See you at the next one

All 300 yards

So what does the 3 x 600 actually refer to?

 

[Ned Ludd]

So it isn't just me. The "3x600" label is extremely misleading when describing a 3x20 @ 300 yd match.

How misleading can it possibly be when the title says 300 yard as the very first word? Also….it’s a reduced 600 yard target. most match directors label it exactly as I do as shown in the picture attached.
