Below is an email that went out a few weeks ago regarding the upcoming NRA and CMP High Power matches at the scenic Deep Creek Rifle Range. The Deep Creek Range is widely known for its (typically) good conditions and high scores. There have been 14 NRA national records set there in the last 6 years, including Mr Gosnell's F-Open record of 200-17X last year. Consider taking a vacation to Montana this year and shooting in some of the matches.
We hope to see you on the firing line!

Missoula Matches
This year the Hellgate Civilian shooters and the MRPA will be hosting a total of four tournaments with nearly the same format as last year. (For 2017, I anticipate getting the prone Memorial Day weekend matches moved to the fourth weekend of June and having the Memorial Day weekend be all XTC and pistol matches). Most of these tournaments sell out, and pre-registration is required with payment to hold a spot on the line. The match programs are linked below and the last page is the registration form. New this year is the option for convertable sighters in some of the slow fire matches - see programs for details.
