Gentlemen,
The Seitzland Rifle Club is running a 3X600 prone reduced course tournament on Saturday July 14th. Sling shooters will shoot at the NRA MR-52 target and Tactical Rifle shooters will shoot at the NRA 100 Yard Smallbore target. The Smallbore target should be a real challenge for the TR shooters as it is a half minute of angle target at 200 yards. The entry fee for this tournament is $15 and $10 for juniors. The only prize will be bragging rights for the winners. Sign up starts at 8:00 AM and first round down range will be at 9:00 AM. The course of fire will be 2 sighter shots and 20 rounds for record fired in 22 minutes. There will be a 3 minute prep period before each 22 shot match. You will shoot this 3 times. We will run 3 relays and all competitors will shoot, score and pull targets. The range has a covered firing line so the hot weather should be not so hard on the shooters.
This should be a good tournament for novice shooters or for shooters who want to work on a load or for shooters trying to work out a problem. The scoring system is very simple and there will be help for shooters who are inexperienced on scoring and pulling targets. By shooting 3 relays the scoring will be done from the firing line and no competitor will have to come out of the pits and go directly to the firing line.
Tactical Rifle shooters will be allowed to shoot from a front and rear rest. Sling shooters will follow NRA rules for slow fire prone. Any questions about this tournament send me an e-mailJMeade@Comcast.net
The address of the range is 3938 Bowser Road, New Freedom PA. 17349. I hope to see you all on the 14th.
