Monthly Meet – Blanket Prize, July 27th, 2024

Blanket Prize Meet

Bring a Blanket Prize as your entry fee! 

We are having two shooting categories, off hand as it is known as and bench to compete in classifications for fairness. We do not want to exclude anyone who wants to shoot with us but we will not compete against centerfire or scopes to be fair for example. Bench rest, shooting sticks, cover support pole, kneeling, sitting, prone et all shooting group. We will be shooting two relays, 10 shots each, patch and roundball, any caliber in these two shooting classifications off hand and supported. The classifications will not compete against each other but just bragging rights.

First Relay:
10 shots at 50 yards, we will have our clay pigeon setup and could add some new steel animals to knock down. Zero for a miss and 10 points for hitting the pigeon or steel knockdown.

Second Relay:
10 shots at 25 yards, five squirrel two shots each for score and remember it is a tough little bugger of a target so be ready to aim small miss small. They have a bullseye on them, small, we will be using to score so not so many ties we hope when it comes to the blanket prize selection process.

Both relays will be added together for placement within your appropriate shooting category off hand or bench-rest. Then we go to the prize blanket so you can choose your winnings based on finish and you choose what looks good to you.

First shot determines your scoring category. No changing your mind after first shot. So pick either bench or offhand.

So shooting safety talk start time: 9:00am, goal is done by noon so we can all enjoy time with our families this weekend and get out of the heat.

20 shots total,
Patch and roundball.

OUR THIRD RELAY:
With our successful pistol match we will be having a monthly match independent of the rifle match. Participation is voluntary if you have a pistol and want to shoot it for score. 5 shots, 25 yards big bull target. So bring your pistols for added chances to bring home the meat so to speak. This will be a separate match from the rifle and have its own prizes.
