Precision Pistol (Bullseye) Clinic

SRPA will host a Precision Pistol clinic on 5 June 2022 from 0900 – 1300.  This event will replace our normal monthly match for this day.  The goal is to help you try out the sport and see if you enjoy the challenge.  Perhaps you will decide to participate in the monthly matches. 

Precision Pistol is all about accuracy.  It isn’t a run ‘n gun or speed match.  You will find the skills you gain are applicable to other types of handgun and rifle shooting.  We know it can be daunting to shoot a pistol at long distances.  Some of you may be concerned about needed equipment to get started.  You might be skeptical of shooting one-handed.  That is completely understandable and why we are conducting this clinic.

You can shoot any 22 pistol or revolver with either iron or red dot sights.  It is also totally acceptable to shoot two-handed until you gain experience.  There will be an NRA instructor and other experienced shooters available to help you try the sport.  NRA RSOs will manage the line.  Unlike a regular match, the clinic will be 22LR only and shot at 25 yards. 

The course of fire will be:

• Slow fire segment:  Instruction and trial shots, then 10 rounds on stationary targets in 10 minutes
• Timed fire segment:  Instruction and trial shots, then two 5 round strings on turning targets in 20 seconds per string
• Rapid fire segment:  Instruction and trial shots, then two 5 round strings on turning targets in 10 seconds per string

We will repeat this sequence as desired.

The fee is $5 for members and $10 for non-members.  Bring your 22 pistol and ammo.  We will have a few target pistols for you to try if you wish.  You may want to bring a spotting scope or binoculars.  Ear and eye protection is required.
