You will be shooting targets at various ranges from 25 - 230 yards. The size of the target will vary from 1/4 inch to 10 inch plates. You will have 90 sec to shoot each stage.
Emphasis is placed on knowing how to operate your scope, managing your dope and utilizing hold over and kentucky windage. Coaching is encouraged at this time. It is our objective for everyone to become efficient in the usage of their rifle and the scope. This is most enjoyable and satisfying way to be able to shoot at these varied distances.
Some of our new shooters have even had the pleasure of cutting a playing card on the edge at 40 yards.
Have Fun and we will see you at the range
