Our group meets once a month over the summer to shoot competitive benchrest using .22 rimfire rifles only at 50yds. All matches start at 1pm
for the first relay and a second relay (if needed) will start shortly after 3pm. Each relay shoots two of
the Smallbore Rifle 25-bullseye targets below, in a time limit of 30 minutes per target, with a 5-minute sight-in time allowed preceeding the first target.
All competitors are asked to bring their own rest, ammo and for safety reasons, an ECI (Empty Chamber Indicator) to indicate the rifle is safe and unloaded when not in use. You can use your own wind indicator but ribbon flags will be in place. Benches are wood and it's a good idea to bring a seat cushion.
We can accomodate 10 shooters on a relay so first come gets to choose their bench.
There are two classes of rifles which are recognized: Light Rifle Class: Any rifle with any sights which weighs 8.5lbs or less; and Unlimited Class: Any rifle with any sights which weighs over 8.5lbs.
