Now that spring is upon us & one can now shoot w/o shivering, would anyone be interested in a .22LR (only) match? I'm thinking both rifle & handgun with separate classes for irons & optics in order to make things more even.
Maybe have separate classes for shooters under 16? Good way for a family shoot together, maybe even have a "family high score" catagory? I should be able to get a section of the Hobson Pike TWRA Range reserved just for us. I was able to do this once before. Thoughts? Suggestions? |
I like the idea. Now that I'm more ambulatory, might even be able to attend!!! 
Let me know what I can do to help out. David Tennessee Firearms Association TFA Forum |
| Bob , I've accualy been talking with the guy that does the IDPA matches at Maury Co. gun club and he's all for it . One of that main reasons is we can't shoot rifle calibers on the pistol ranges , and it would keep the cost of shooting cheap . He also said that sense it was my idea I get to get every thing thought out and ready . I'd be very interested in atteneding one before doing mine . I've been looking at late may early june as a possible date . |

I've been looking at late may early june as a possible date . Well, I think I can rule out May for this one due to everyone needing some lead time in planning their schedule(s). I've got a FNRA banquet on 4 June, so it would be the middle of June before I could realistically see this one happening. Not to mention I also need to speak with the TWRA about reserving their 50 yard range before I do anything. I did run the last one there & it went pretty smoothly, IMO. Hardly any fighting & name calling over the scorekeeping.................... 
But any thoughts on classifications? I don't think it's right to shoot irons against optics in either rifle or handgun, IMO. Some might worry with the Marlins/Rugers shooting against the Anschutz's, the Buckmarks against the S&W 41's. Not sure there's much I can do on those points, IMO. But I'm always willing to listen to suggestions. |

Just happened to get to the range today to try out my new CZ 452 Target. Here's my result @ 50 yards with the first 5-shot mag after I got the scope dialed in. Probably won't be good enough to use in a match, I guess?
