Monthly Meet – March 23rd, 2024 – NMLRA Bullseye Targets

NMLRA Bullseye Targets – 6 Bull target and 2 Bull target

On March 23rd we will be doing some serious shootin’ under the watchful eyes of our range officers. We will be starting the registration sign in at 8.30am on Saturday, March 23rd and start the course of fire description and safety briefing with the goal of beginning the shoot by 9:00am.

We are having two shooting categories, off hand as it is known as and “supported” 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. Supported is the bench rest, shooting sticks, kneeling, sitting, prone et all shooting group. No prone this time as we gotta practiz with these other shooting positions. All the prone shooters went to Tennessee to try their luck up there anyway and they better report back on how good they done.

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 for prizes, just bragging rights.

First Relay:
10 shots at 50 yards, the NMLRA six bull 50 yard target. Two shots each bull for score and one for practizin.

Second Relay:
10 shots at 25 yards, 50 yard NMLRA two bull targets, five shots each target. Heck, may have to change this one up and go smaller since you all want to do some serious shootin’ after you wet them sights.

Scores will be added together for placement within your appropriate shooting category off hand or supported (bench-rest, shooting sticks etc). 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 or maybe a nice sit down debrief session at the Talking Rock train station.

So total of 20 shots total plus practice ones, Patch and roundball.
