Falling Steel Fun Shoot - Saturday, September 3rd

On Saturday, September 3rd there will be 5 stages of falling steel for your shooting enjoyment. The set up will be such that you can shoot as much or as little ammunition as you like. We know it's hard to come by these days and everyone does not have a huge stockpile. 

We will be doing advance registration. It allows us to balance the squads for a smoother match flow. Email us at yorksignup@gmail.com and tell us you would like to shoot, and if there are others you would like to shoot with who they are. Thanks. 

This is a laid back event and you can do just about anything you like as long as you're safe. You will not need a holster. You may use one if you like. We don't use timers, but you can if you like. You can shoot any standard caliber handgun or carbine (no magnums or anything faster than 1300 fps). Shotguns are fine to use with low brass 7.5 or 8 shot. 22lr is OK. .300 BLK subsonic is ok. You can switch guns between stages, Two or more people can shoot as a team. Just be safe. Kids and new shooters are welcome.

 All guns should be unloaded before entering the club grounds. Handguns will be carried without any magazine inserted in a holster, bag or case. Long guns will have chamber flags (which we have for sale) and in a cart, case or on a sling. Eye and ear protection is mandatory, at all times, even for spectators (which are welcome). The entry fee is $20 for 18 and over. $5 for under 18. 

Be there before 8:30 am if you want to shoot (after 8:30 if you want to be a spectator). We will do a match briefing at 8:45 and be shooting by 9:00 am.

Saturday, July 2nd Falling Steel Fun Shoot

Sign up is extremely light as of Monday, 6/27, so if you're on the fence, you need to make a decision quickly and email yorksignup@gmail.com if you intend to shoot before Thursday 6/30 at noon.  That is when we will decide to have the Fun Shoot this month or not.  We're still hopeful, but if it's too busy of a weekend for everyone then we're not setting up 150 pieces of steel. Thanks.

Long Range Egg Shoot Canceled

Match canceled.  Too much going on this weekend.  Sorry.

On Sunday, June 5th we will be hosting a Long Range Egg Shoot.  This is the one on the rifle range where you use a 22lr to shoot egg size, and shaped steel at 50. 75, 100 and 125 yards from the benches.  Do not underestimate these targets.  The eggs are about 2" tall.  We've had people see how hard this is and quit.  But if you have a decent 22lr and know your dope this is really fun, quick and requires some skill.  It's a perfect starter sport for those wanting to shoot 22lr PRS and good practice for those who do.

Email yorksignup@gmail.com to sign up.  Be there by 8:30 at the latest.  8:00 if you want to help set up. The match fee is $20 for adults.  $5 for under 18.  Everyone starts at 50 yards.  A few minutes later you will shoot 75 yards, and so on.  

Bring spotting scopes if you have them.  We will need volunteers to spot or score when they're not shooting.

I have a two page document with some tips for beginners that may be of interest to you.  If you'd like a copy of that, and/or you'd like to sign up email me at yorksignup@gmail.com
