WEST WALKER SPORTSMAN'S CLUB

Invites one and all to a .22 rifle fun shoot
(.22 Handguns are also welcome)

Saturday, May 31, 2008

 

Will be held on the Charter Range

Hours will be 10AM to 3PM

Cost: $5.00 per forty target match

Bring plenty of ammo and don’t forget your hearing and eye protection

Mark your calendar and we hope to see you on May 31.

 

We are going to have a .22 rifle fun shoot using IHMSA .22 targets. There will be 10 chickens at 25 yards, 10 pigs at 50 yards, 10 turkeys at 75 yards, and 10 rams at 100 yards. We will be doing this shoot under IHMSA range commands where you will have two minutes to fire five shots at the first five targets, then two minutes to fire five shots at the next five targets. After that you will move to the next station and do the same thing at the next ten targets until you have fired on all forty targets.

Parents, bring your kids and have a fun day of shooting. Hit the steel target and watch it spin in the air as it falls down. Guys, bring your buddies out and challenge them to see who can hit the most targets. Bring a new shooter or someone who’s never shot and introduce them to a new form of recreation.

Due to possible target damage this shoot is limited to .22 long rifle ammo only. No .22 magnum or any .17 caliber rimfires will be allowed. Sorry.  .22 Handguns are also welcome.

Eye and ear protection will be required when on or near the firing line. We have some of both to lend out, but it would be better if you brought your own.

We will give you a score card so you can keep track of your hits and misses if you wish. Any style of .22 rifle is welcome. Bolt actions, semi-autos, single shots, pumps, whatever. Scopes, iron sights, red dots, whatever you use to sight your gun is welcome. The folks who are putting on this shoot will be at the firing line to answer any questions you might have, and to make sure that all firearms are handled in a safe manner.

So mark your calendar on Saturday, May 31st from 10:00 till 3:00 for a fun day of shooting steel. Hope to see you there.

If you have any questions about this shoot you can contact Chris Hackett at pl8shootr@sbcglobal.net and he will hopefully answer them to your satisfaction.
