Alright Rimfire PRS shooters. You asked, so I’ve responded. I must be a glutton for punishment. Here we go…
On March 22nd, we will be holding our next twilight Rimfire PRS match. We are doing this in conjunction with our monthly match #3. It will be 8 stages again with a round count between 80-90. The idea is to gather everyone to test their endurance and discipline with only a few hours sleep between matches. Thank you Travis Schmitter for adding to my workload!
There is on-site camping available with electric or without electric hook ups. There is also primitive camping available. We have a new , state of the art (heated) bathouse facility right next to the range. There are also several hotels within a 30 mile or so radius of the range.
You do not have to participate in both matches if you do not wish to. You may choose one or the other, but wouldn’t it be cool to say you made it through both?
There will be a match fee discount for those that do participate in both. There will also be an additional set of trophies for those that shoot both. These will both be for PRS points for those chasing them.
