Eddie,
All very good questions. We are not a formal group. We shoot non-sanctioned matches which we create based on interest and conditions. how much is the fee? $5.00 for LRGC members, $10 for non-members what style shooting are we doing? Not sure what you mean by this question? what calibers? You will need a magazine fed, center-fire rifle. Most people use 5.56, 7.62 x 39 or .308. how many stages? five to seven typically. what are the divisions (if any)? Nope. Hope this helps... |

Hi Eddie,
Due to the safety constraints of the range, there is no real "running and gunning" in our matches. Keep your eyes peeled for info on the matches at New Holland Rifle and Pistol Club. We have a sister program running up there and they have a lot more flexibility and a lot more real estate. It's run by Fargo007 who is one of the top instructors in the area. I can't recommend him highly enough. Gary |

Great job today everyone. Special thanks to all those who came early and stayed late to help set-up and clean-up. You guys are the best! You will notice two separate spread sheets one red and one blue. At lunch we discussed the fact that we should have given more points to those who eliminated a threat target. So the blue spread sheet is the raw scores under the rules we discussed at the match. The red spread sheet is how the scores would have looked if we doubled the value for neutralizing the threat targets. In the end, it didn't matter to our first and second place finishers. Great job Barry and Matt!
November Score Sheet On behalf of Tim and all our RSO Staff, thank you for being safe and for your support of our program. Happy Holidays, Gary |
