2015 Missoula Rifle Matches at Deep Creek Rifle Range
Marksmen, We hope you can make it out to some of the matches this year at the Deep Creek Rifle Range in Missoula, MT. The schedule of events is listed below. Over the last six years, there have been some incredible scores fired and a number of NRA national records established by individuals and teams in Missoula. If you want to participate be sure to register early. Registration forms are the last page of the match programs. Programs are sent by email request to jameydan[at]gmail.com All tournaments are sanctioned by the NRA as either Regionals/State Championships/Registered, so that a competitor can be eligible to set a NRA national record.
The Memorial Day Weekend Ironman matches are a sell out each year and it is anticipated that the Northern Rockies Long Range and F-Class Tournament will also be sold out again. We are also hoping to see two to three legs awarded at the CMP Montana State Service Rifle Championship in June.
Lastly, new shooters are always welcome to attend.

Schedule of Events
Memorial Day Weekend May 22-25th, 2015
This weekend includes something for nearly everyone, from pistol matches and across-the-course rifle matches all the way out to 1000yd matches. We have also included a mid range team matches at 600yds that are ripe for some team records. Be sure to be a NRA member and form up an eligible team! If you have any questions about teams, be sure to email us.
We are going to have a fun grand aggregate award for this tournament and the winner will be crowned the Ironman. All individual rifle scores for the weekend will be compiled to determine the Ironman. We are also going to encourage F-Class and prone only shooters to participate in the standing slowfire, sitting rapid fire and prone rapid fire matches so that they can post scores in these matches to count towards the grand aggregate. The prone and F-Class only shooters can choose to use any NRA legal rifle they want to use for the 200-300yd XTC matches and then switch to their prone/F-class rifles for the remainder of the weekend. Contact me for additional info.
