Sounds like fun. I'll plan to attend.

I have a few questions coming to me about this match. First, to sign up, just send me an email with the names for who is coming. you can just show up also.
Next, this match is NOT a PRS/NRL22 type match. We can only shoot stages at a time. To save time we will have 5 shooters on benches ready to shoot. The first shooter will start, when finished, the shooter shows clear, and insert chamber flag, then the next shooter can start shooting. The first shooter will clear the bench and will be replaced with a new shooter, and so on. one stage will be a money stage in the match.
We will have a short sight in before the first stage. Most stages will have a larger target down to a 1 MOA target. We will shoot at 50yds, 100yds, 150yds, and 200yds. one stage will run from 75yds to 250yds A side match will be at 330yds with 3" gong. There will be sighters before record rounds. $5.00 to enter one shooter will take all.
