Rimfire Rifle Match

Sounds like fun. I'll have borrow some mags

 

[Billsail]

What about a tube feed with a speedloader?

What about a tube feed with a speedloader?

I would contact Steve at the email included to ask. It's a speed match, similar to Walls of Steely without the 10 round restriction.

 

[lwshack]

Sounds like a good time

What size are the targets?

What size are the targets?

I understand them to be the Sportsman Team Challenge targets, on plate racks. Pull cord reset.

Wish I could go but we spend Easter with family

It's Easter? I bet they weren't aware of it. I wasn't.

 

[Dan S]

The Easter date was brought to the attention of the Bradford club. The date has been pushed back.

What size are the targets? I am trying to figure out which scope to use. I hope they can find a date that doesn't conflict with the USPSA matches.

I had sent an e mail and the proposed date (Not saying until confirmed) does not conflict with anything currently on the Northeast section match calendar.

Geeze Fred, they are various shapes and sizes, big ones may be 6", maybe not that big.

I found it easily. The distances will be limited to 30 yards

 

[Gammon]

I had no idea that this upcoming match had anything to do with the "challenge matches" as nothing in the announcement referred to these matches. It appears that the relatively small targets will respond better to crosshairs rather than the rather large dots I have available.

Sounds like a lot of fun. The last time I shot these targets was eons ago when you let me use that custom 10-22 you built for these matches. Sweet rifle.

 

[noxin]

Hah, I didn't even consider my 10/22 for this! I'll bring that if I can make it

Rhode Island 22 Rifle match

What happened to the thread?

What happened to the thread?

Fred,
The title was changed to reflect the date change. The guys that picked the date, didn't realize it was on Easter. The match has been set back a week.

Was wondering what was going to happen with the Easter conflict Where did the thread go as I wanted to shoot it.

[Gammon]

Thanks

I mentioned this match to some friends who couldn't find it on NES. Then I couldn't find it. Sounds like a lot of fun but I am a little leery of one in plates at 30 yds. Just have to practice.

 

[Dan S]

I don't think 1" plates will be used, particularly at 30 yards. Email and ask.

 

[TY43215]

I don't think 1" plates will be used, particularly at 30 yards. Email and ask.

I hear they will be doing Necco Wafers for the 30 yard targets. Can't wait.

 

[Gammon]

I hear they will be doing Necco Wafers for the 30 yard targets. Can't wait.

They won't taste very good broken on the ground.

No You got that wrong It's primed 12ga hulls. Ya got to set the primer off!

 

[Dan S]

Only for Fred!

 

[PMD]

Dan this looks fun.
I think I am free that weekend..
Do you know if there are Open and Limited classes?
And if you can shoot both?

Paul, I think it's just "Run What You Brung" I'll check with Mark. It's his brainchild.

 

[Dan S]

Paul,
I spoke with Mark, who is not the match director, but has knowlege on the match. Since it is a first time, there was no consideration on divisions. It is, like IPSC of old, bring what you want to shoot. Optics are a good idea, and big dot setups probably will not be optimal. A 4X scope with crosshairs will do real well.
Talk with Steve at the match, and give input for future matches.
I'm going to shoot one of my 10-22's for this.

 

[PMD]

Thanks Dan.
Sounds like the M&P 15-22 would work nicely as my Tactical Solutions X-Ring does not like hicap mags..
Need to decide on which sight..

 

[Dan S]

Reliability will be the desired characteristic over extreme accuracy.
