Cowboy Rifle and Hunter Pistol Silhouette Matches

Match details:

• See the Calendar for dates and times.

Entry Fee:

• $10.00 per match.
• $5.00 per match for Juniors (under 18).

Match details:

• The matches are open to everyone; NRA membership is not required. Advanced Entries are not required.
• Typically, iron-sighted lever guns (Cowboy) or scoped handguns (Hunter’s Pistol) are used. The course of fire is the same for both categories and we shoot them side-by-side. If you don’t have the correct gun, bring what you have as long as it’s a pistol or rifle chambered in 22 LR or a pistol caliber cartridge. For example, you can shoot a scoped bolt 22 or 9mm AR carbine. You just won’t qualify for prize money.
• Two matches are held each day. 22 LR in the morning and pistol caliber in the afternoon.
• Sign up for the 22LR match starts at 9:00am
  Sight-in starts at 9:30am
  The 22 LR starts at 10:00am
  After the 22 LR match completes, there will be a short break to reset the range before the pistol cartridge match. This is usually around 11:30am or noon.
• After this break, there will be a 30-minute sight-in period for the pistol cartridge match.
• Sign up for the pistol cartridge match ends at the end of this sight-in period.
• After completion of the pistol cartridge match, competitors are asked to assist with teardown and cleanup.

Rules:

•     22 LR cowboy rifle silhouette and hunter's pistol silhouette will be fired concurrently.
•     Pistol cartridge lever action rifle silhouette and hunter's pistol silhouette will be fired concurrently.
•     If you don't have the correct equipment, the match can still be shot for fun. Pistol cartridges are limited to typical straight wall chamberings. Cartridges that cause target damage may not be used. For example, an AR pistol chambered in .223 Rem is not allowed. However, an AR carbine chambered in 9mm Luger is allowed. Check with club leadership if you are unsure your firearm may be used.
