General Info:

March's match will be primarily rifle/carbine similar to February but with a different Course of Fire. There will be both shooting from a firing line and shooting 1 or 2 at a time in a practical style stage(s).

The 50 yard range is reserved this day for members to shoot, so there will be a pistol side match too, but it will be on the 100 yard range.

Targets will be a mixture of paper and reactive swingers.

Reservation link at bottom of the page.

Sporting Clays at the club is being held this day too from 9am to approximately 2pm...$12 for 50 birds.

The sporting clays course can also be shot by itself and does not require a reservation - just show up between 9am and approximately 2 pm and shoot.

If you are in the PM group and want shoot clays, it would be best to arrive before 10AM.
