Hunter Pistol Silhouette
The game goes like this: Steel targets of the typical silhouette animals are set at 40, 50 75 meters and 100 yards. They may be fired at with any handgun weighing no
more than 4 ½ pounds and with a barrel length of no more that 10 ½ inches. Calibers from .22 to .44 are allowed, but no bottle-necked cartridges are allowed. ie. no .223,
30-30 etc. .22 cal. is limited to long rifle, high velocity only and no hyper-velocity “such as stingers, vipers etc.” ammo is allowed.
The firearms are shot standing, offhand with no artificial support. One shot at each target in order just as in the Smallbore Rifle Silhouette except the shooter has 2
minutes instead of 2 1/2 in the rifle game.
Come on out and bring your handgun, either scoped or open sights, and give it a try. Centerfire and rimfire will be fired as separate classes, so you will need at least 40
rounds for each class fired in addition to rounds needed for sighters.
Cast Bullet Match
Cast bullet match. This match was originally set up for the old black powder cartridges such as the .45-70 or .40-65 but we have opened it up to include any center fire
rifle shooting cast bullets with iron sights. The course of fire is 10 shots off hand at 100 yards and 2 -10 shot targets across the bench at 100 yards.
Special note: For those of us who don’t hit the target very well off hand at 100 yards, I’ve got some really big targets for the off hand stage.
Muzzle Loader Match
There will be a variety of targets shot from 20 to 100 yards both off hand and across the bench.
This match is open to any front-end stuffer with iron sights, no optics allowed. When we first started having this match, no in-lines were allowed. There was some
grumbling from the in-line owners so about 2 years ago we started to allow in-lines. Guess what…… no in-lines have ever showed up. I would really like to see if an in-
line could out do the old side-lock guns. Bring your in-line and prove me wrong.
If all goes as expected, I will have a target that will “level the field”. Loaner guns will be available to anyone that would like to try it.

What the heck is a .22 Rifle Fun Shoot?
Matt Van Steen
On Saturday February 25th, we plan to have a .22 rifle fun shoot (weather permitting of course). It will most likely be cold, but as long as the roads
aren't icy we'll be there shooting.
This match is designed to give shooters a chance to their .22 rifles fast at reactive targets - similar to the steel plate match for pistols. The targets
will be placed at 30yds and will be a variety of items - steel plates, bowling pins, clays. There will be around 20 targets to engage as fast as
possible. The match will be timed and scored like the steel plate match. Any targets left standing will incur a 10 second penalty.
There will be three classes of rifle - lever-action, bolt-action and semi-auto (no magnums). Each rifle type will have both iron sights and scoped
classes. That way everyone is competing against the same type of firearm.
This is the first time I have run a match like this so it will be a bit of an experiment. We will have hot coffee and donuts and plan to start shooting at
10am - so please show up by 9:30am to get signed in.
