September Rimfire Challenge Results

The September Rimfire Challenge is in the books for the Modified Benchrest Challenge.  The weather was great except for the wind gusts.  It proved most challenging for the most experienced contestants.  

If you have not had a chance to experience a Rimfire Challenge, come out on the 3rd Sunday of the month.  The range is set up with a short sighting in period from 7:00 am to 8:30, Safety Meeting at 8:30, and the Rimfire Challenge runs from 9:00am to Noon.
 
The next Rimfire Challenge is the KNOW YOUR LIMITS (KYL) that will test your limits.  KYL Targets are 8 swinging steel targets at 50-yard line, ranging in size from 2” diameter to ¼” diameter in ¼” increments.  Any firearm chambered for the .22 Long Rifle cartridge may be used.  Front bag or rest only, shooting off the bench.  This is a timed event for best score.
 
See you at the range!
