That would be so cool to shoot this event. But it’s too far for this old guy to travel alone.
Will some kind sole be posting updates and results ?

Are people allowed just to come and watch?
Yes.......But if you have a gun that will make the 17lbs with a scope that will give you the MOA to get it out to 1K, you should compete in at least 1 of the day's matches......The 1st time I ever squeezed the trigger at 1K was at Williamsport at the World Open. I went up by myself with some decent equipment and a sound gun in 6.5-06 imp....Joe Salt got me on target early Fri. and then I was off to the races......I had a HOOT.......Give it some thought.

Regards
Rick

Thanks Rick, unfortunately, old age is against me. I have the equipment, just can`t see the targets anymore.

I thought it would be neat to see others shoot and see everyone having a good time.

Planning on being there. It’s a great match for those of you who have never shot it. Beautiful range, solid benches, great pits, beautiful facilities, good people. Now the weather…you take what you get!
