There will be some travel to other clubs, but we will do postal matches as the winter progresses. Shooting will start at 7:30 so come at 7:00. COME AND SEE HOW WE DO THIS. There are three positions used -Prone, Kneeling and Standing. Ten rounds are fired at a target fifty feet away. There are no time restraints. We have some very good shooters. Only the top four shooters’ scores count for record. For the new shooter we have a lite rifle category. A single shot 22 caliber rifle weighing eight pounds or less with any sights are allowed. The same three positions where ten rounds are fired at a larger target than the heavier rifles is used. There are less restrictions than for the heavier rifles. COME AND JUST OBSERVE. COME AND JOIN US. Only the top four scores count as the match results so low scores cannot hurt the team. Contact Jack Donnelly at (781) 953-4798 with any questions or concerns.
