Hello all. I would like to bring to everyone's attention to a 22LR competition that has been going on for a couple of months now. It is called the Utah Cheapskate 22LR. We run this down at the Hobble Creek Shooting Range in Springville. We try to put on a shoot at least once a month, but sometimes once every other month. It has grown quite a bit since we first started out. Anyone can come shoot with us, and the fee to shoot is cheap ($2-3, hence cheapskate  ) The money just covers the range rental, no one is getting rich off of this. We run this competition for good fun and just to work on our rifle skills with cheap ammo. It doesn't matter if you have a less expensive semi auto 22 or a $1000+ bolt gun 22, we do this for a good time. If anyone wants to come, the next competition will be held on March 17th from 0900-1200 at the Hobble Creek Shooting Range. We have people come from Utah, Idaho, Wyoming and New Mexico. If anyone wants to come, just IM or email me and I can add you to the Facebook group and if you have a membership at Sniper's Hide you can register for the match there.
I hope to see as many people as can come to this. Info: Location: This match will held at Hobble Creek Gun Club as they are much more accommodating than the Provo range. Time: 09:00-12:00 The next Utah Cheapskate .22LR match will be on Saturday March 17th. Because of the varying skill levels we will split the match into beginner and advanced groups. We will have room for 12 shooters in the advanced and everyone else will be able to fit into the beginner group. If you have finished in the top 8 in either of the last two matches you have first priority for a slot in the advanced group. If there is still room after that then anyone else is welcome to shoot it. If things work out I would like to be at the range the evening before to help any of you set up your gear, get DOPE, and answer any questions you may have. The beginner COF is as follows. Stage...................Position.......Distance.....Time......Rounds....Points Cold Bore............Prone...............25............15..............1...........30 Hostage...............Prone..............25............30...............3..........60 KYL.....................Prone..............25............40..............4...........50 Speed Dots..........Prone...............25............25..............5...........50 Windows.............Prone...............50............60...............6...........60 Bugs....................Prone..............50............50...............5..........TBD Silhouette............P/B...................50............100............10.........100 Group..................Prone..............100..........100.............10.........100 The advanced COF will be similar to what you have seen in the past except we will push out to 200+ yds. Please let me know if you have any questions. Semper Fi http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=3101658#Post3101658 |

That sounds like great fun, I'm going to see if I can get a group of 4-5 to come down. Do you run any IPSC or IDPA type matches using .22s, that would be a hoot. Thanks for posting! Not yet, but we are looking to integrate 22 pistols and carbines into the competitions. That will probably be in the next few months. We look forward to see you there! |

According to Rocca on the hide thread if we're members of the range we can participate for free? Is that correct? I live just a couple miles from the range so I'm thinking a membership would work great for me. At this time no, but we are trying to get this worked out with Springville. |

Okay there will be another match on April 14th at the same range. Here is some info. It is a match/charity shoot for Corbin Allred. The 22 match will be first, and there will be a Class III shoot after. There will be prizes because we are being sponsored by High Desert Tactical.
We would like to see as many people to come as possible. |
