Starting in November 2015 Pikes Peak Practical Shooters and the Pueblo West Sportsmans Assn will begin hosting Precision Rimfire matches on fourth Sundays.
Right now we have four matches scheduled. Nov, Dec, Jan and Feb. This is the normal Tactical Rifle match weekend, but we don't shoot TR Matches on this weekend during the Winter months.
So... to keep us shooting and as lots of people have asked to turn on the rimfire matches again, here we go.
Two rifle divisions. BOLT/MANUAL ACTION and SEMI
22 Long Rifle only. No 22 mag or 17s. They tear up our steel.
All shooting prone or bench. Up to the shooter. You can even shoot off sticks/packs/standing/ect. You can build your own shooting challenge based on your training needs.
Any flavor of optics allowed. Suppressors allowed and encouraged.
No time limits or bonus points for finishing fast.
The close target will be 50-60 yards. Far target will be 220 yards. Target shapes and sizes will vary from month to month. All targets are steel biathlon type just like we have used at numerous NSSF Rimfire Challenge and Chevy Truck Sportsmans Team Challenge matches. Plan on 2-3 MOA sized targets at all ranges.
Minimum round count will be 75-80, max will be 100. This will allow you to show up with two boxes of ammo and complete the match.
Depending on how many people show up will drive the need for additional matches. Right now we also have access to 8 dates in 2015.
As always, eye protection is 100% required.
Set up will start at 8:00 and shooting will start at 10:00.
$15
Here are a few of the targets we will be using. Ignore target placement in photo. All targets will be up against the backstop. When you hit the white target it falls leaving daylight. I just stood these back up to show what they look like. Target bank #1 targets are 5.5 inches, target bank#2 has 2 and 4 inch plates. Expect many different shapes and sizes.
