Saturday, August 3rd Falling Steel

On Saturday, August 3rd, we will be hosting another Falling Steel match.  This match will consist of 4 stages of steel targets that must fall to score.  Each stage will have 25-35 targets and the shooter, or shooters, will have 60 seconds to knock down all that they can.  I say shooters, because it is possible to shoot this as a two person team, with both shooters attacking the same array simultaneously this month.  We will also allow shotguns (with prior approval) this month.

The cost is $20 for an individual, and the same for a two person team, so that's only $10 per person.

We've done these type of falling steel matches for a couple of years now and they are fast and fun.  There is no movement allowed and no holsters.  A minimal amount of equipment is required.  To increase your speed and have even more fun find a partner and shoot as a team.  It is a crazy good time.

This is a great match to shoot with your kid, spouse, or non-competitive shooter as a teammate, but it's fun for singles too.  There won't be any type of payout so what difference does it make?  Just be safe and have a good time.  That's how and why we keep the entry fee low.

We have 2 new divisions for this match.  TO Shooter's Choice and Open Shooter's Choice.  These divisions allow you to pick which type of firearm you (and your teammate if applicable) shoot on each stage.  Maybe a shotgun or two is better on one stage, where a PCC is better on another.  Mix and match til your heart's content.

Divisions include:

Stock Auto (10 Rounds)
Stock Auto 140 (140 mm mags, so up to 17-24 for most pistols)
Open Auto (red dots and 10 rounds)
Open auto 170 (red dots and 170mm mags so up to 31 +/- rounds with some pistols.
Stock Revolver (6 rounds and iron sights)
Open Revolver (unlimited rounds and red dots permitted)
PCC (Pistol caliber carbine, and carbine style "pistols" too)
Limited shotgun (with prior approval only)
Open Shotgun (with prior approval only)
TO Shooter's Choice (with prior approval only)
Open Shooter's Choice (with prior approval only)

All of these divisions may be shot individually or as a two man team.  Let me know when signing up and if shooting as a team let me know who your partner is.

If you have any questions or to sign up please email yorksignup@gmail.com

Please plan on being at the club not later than 8:15 to pay and register.  Mandatory match briefing will be at 8;45 am and we will be shooting 9:00 at the latest.

July FunShoot

This Saturday, July 27th  we will be hosting our monthly FunShoot.
We will present you with 6-7 stages of 20-30 falling steel targets each.
Setup will be this Friday (the 26th) at 5pm. Remember, the quality of the event depends on setup turnout.


This month we are doing a little something special, to honor (humor) an old friend of the FunShoot, the "Makarov Challange!". Show up with your Makarov in 9X18 and squad together to shoot for score!

I'm also thinking of newtons......


Fee will be $20 for adults, $5 for anyone under 18.
Signup by 8:15, shooting at 9ish.

Boilerplate follows:

Firearm choice will be standard pistol caliber handgun, standard pistol caliber carbine, or shotgun (7 1/2 lead shot or smaller). You may bring all 3 types to the shoot, and you can change the choice of guns on different stages, but only two guns max per stage.
Yes, .22's and  .300 BO subsonic are acceptable.

York is a cold range. Unloaded firearms are carried around the range holstered, boxed, bagged, slung, carted or in a sock. Long guns require a chamber flag, and they will be for sale.

Bring family and friends, we are very new shooter and kid friendly. Spectators are welcome!

Everyone on the range MUST WEAR EYE PROTECTION WITH SIDE SHIELDS. We will be shooting steel, and it creates little flying bits of metal that can hit you on occasion. There will be eye protection for sale.

cheers

York's July 14th 3 Gun Match Sponsored by Just Right Carbines

We will be hosting this month's 3 Gun Match, July 14th.  It will be 6 stages and all 3 guns will be used.  We could be using slugs, rifle and shotgun slings this match, and we do expect to use most of, if not all, of the 200 yards available on the rifle range.  The match fee will be $30.

The match day schedule is as follows:

7:00 finish set up (help is always appreciated)
8:00 registration begins
8:30 registration ends (anyone arriving after 8:30 is a spectator)
8:45 mandatory match briefing
9:00 shooting begins

To sign up for this match email us at
 yorksignup@gmail.com with your name, division, and squad requests.  You should receive a confirmation within a day or two.

Don't take too long to sign up.  We do have a maximum number of shooters we will take for each of our matches and we do expect the matches to fill quickly.  Conversely, don't sign up if you don't intend to shoot, and if something comes up and you're not going to make it please let us know as soon as possible.  The Thursday before the match at midnight is the cut off for backing out without penalty.  People who persist in not showing up after signing up will not be invited back.  We want to benefit as many shooters as possible this season.

Thanks 
Buddy & Chris Webb
