This is our Battle of the Bulge shoot. So named due to the usually very cold weather.
J.C. Garand course B(55 rounds Minimum).
200 yards, with pits.
Scoring is done in the pits.
All shooters will work the pits(pull targets, & score).
Come out & shoot those old War horses!
Sir, I have never been there. I have been seriously thinking about getting into some comp shooting. Will rules on weapons,ammo,and other things on how the shoot works be posted here ? I am a long ttime shooter and looking for another outlet for my passion
Here is a link to last years thread on the shoot.

Cost should still be $ 0.50/rd.
If you have any more questions I'll be keeping an eye on the threads.

Pete, thank you for your response. The closest to a "military issue" rifle would be my ar15 with iron sights. When funds allow I will be purchasing a Garand. But I don't see that happening by the time of the shoot. It really sounds like fun.
You can come on out & watch, it'll give you an Idea of how our NRA Service Rifle matches run.
We have them once a month from April to Oct.
Your Ar 15 is welcome there.
There are also Club Garands that can be borrowed for the shoot.
Pete, Thanks. I think I will do my best to make it to the Garand Match this month. I will bring my ar along and maybe I can shoot after the "Match" just to see how I score agianst the ww 2 rifles. And gather some intell on other shoots,also meet some good people. I hpoe to see you there !
The match starts at 1:00 P.M.
Sign in at Noon.
Tomorrow's forcast is partly sunny, with a high of 25degF.
DRESS FOR THE COLD!
There will be hot coffee, and bean soup available.
