Afternoon session is half full.

Can't make this one but please put on another match in the future

[john doe]

Morning now 3/4 full

and yes, as time and opportunity permits, there should be more.

Carbine/sidearm two gun in a 25-50 yard CQ style shoot might be next.

Saturday's targets will be somewhat toward the challenging end of the scale.

Weekday or evening shoots are a possibility too.

The Results:

Everyone in the morning group has 2 misses deducted from their scores to correct for for an error. There was target blocked from view and we didn’t notice why everyone was missing until the end of the session.

If anyone notices any other possible errors, send me an email.





We should definitely have a match for August, July is still possible, but I have some schedule shuffling to do first before I can confirm a date.

I wanted to thank and recognize Shawn for putting this together. He is a good organizer, explained things well, and put a high emphasis on safety. He also did a good job selling Oley Fish & Game- I liked the feel of the place and am considering joining.

Attached are some photos from Sat 11 June, 0900 slot. It was a good group and fun to interact with- all very pro 2A and interested in rifles. The shoot itself was a real challenge- much different than just plinking at the range. I really liked it.

I would definitely encourage others to come out for the next carbine event at Oley!









I can send more pics to anyone from the morning slot:
