Long Range Egg Shoot Saturday, September 7th

    On Saturday September 7th we will host a long range egg shoot.  Eggs are steel targets the size of large chicken eggs.  There will be 10 eggs for each shooter at 50, 75, 100 and 125 yards.  Oh, you think that's not long range?  Well it is when you're using a 22 long rifle.  That is the only caliber acceptable. 

     At each distance there will also be a sighter plate.  When it's your turn you will be allowed 15 rounds to shoot at the eggs and/or the sighter plate.   Each hit on an egg is worth 5 points.  Each round not used is worth 1 point.  Spare rounds at one distance may not be used at other distances.

    You may use any type of 22lr rifle, and it may be scoped.  You will also be allowed to shoot any position including from the bench with bags or rests.

    Cost is $20.  If you have earned pistol committee credits they may be applied for discount.

    To sign up please email yorksignup@gmail.com with your name so we know how many people to expect.  We will limit the match to 40 shooters so we should be done by noon.

    On match day please be at the rifle range by 8:30 to pay up and get ready.   8:15 if you want to help set up.
