Boulder Rifle Club Long Range Rimfire Match ***CANCELLED****

[Starbuck]

Well, how about having Roy’s shoot plus NRL 22 COF on another Saturday or Sunday. I’d be for that as GM member.

I would not step up as MD or participate in an NRL 22 match. Sombody else could do that at Green Mill, but not me.

I've shot NRL22 before and it's not my cup of tea. Many people like the format, but I do not. As MD of the BRC RF match, I appreciated the independence in running an "outlaw" match, not having some other entity to pay money to, to track the scores, dictate my COF, and so on.

This is not to say that Green Mill could not host a second "tactical" .22LR match, but if I were to get involved, it would have to be an outlaw match.

Can Pawnee Sportsman carve out a .22 area that goes to 500? they have space by the cowboy action and long-range area

I think more than one at GM is the right answer, more traffic at GM vs Pawnee especially 22 wise

I don't see why you couldn't have more than one 22 event a month

Pawnee has the distance, but also relentless wind, and little natural terrain where shooters can spot misses. Those issues are bad enough with the Mile High CF match run by the BSO sniper - Paul? - if that is still taking place out there. Anyway, it would prolly suck for a .22LR match.

I also agree that location wise we could get more participation at Green Mill. Let's see if Chris W. weighs in and Roy.

GM has the advantage of being close to Denver-metro, so there’s that. And a classy range with bathrooms w/ running water.

 

[Hoser]

Time will tell, but Pueblo is planning on running a rimfire ELR match in 2022.

What about Ft Carson range? Coordinate with Pikes Peaks boys?

Cheyenne Mtn is a nice facility that could host a .22 match. It's too far away from home for me to try to get there on a regular basis. I am a road trip pussy and am not ashamed!

Dunno why someone local to the Springs hasn't already set up a RF match there. My guess is that Hoser has it all covered with his Pueblo matches, right next door.

I was more offended by those damn piano keys than the mud flap girls.

Hope everything works out.

 

[Krob95]

You mean wind indicators it was a great match and I hope to see it come back in some form Sam.

TriggerTime/Paul is supposed to do a .22lr long range PRS out at Pawnee this year. Or so I've been told by Nate at TriggerTime.

What about Great guns In nun? I was just out there recently and they have a 300 yard range.

Interesting. A one-time match or monthly?

A dude named Kyle - the guy was hilarious- ran an NRL 22 match at Great Guns probably six or seven years ago. I shot it - the first and last NRL 22 I ever shot!

At this point I took it as one time or one time, yearly.

Those piano keys had holes in them like swiss cheese.

@Starbuck, was all that Steel yours or the clubs?

 

[Lowlight]

Ya,

the Nunn / Great Guns range would be good too

 

[308pirate]

Wish I could doxx them

Fuck them

Do it

 

[Starbuck]

@Starbuck, was all that Steel yours or the clubs?

90% or so BRC steel, and the rest mine including the MFG's, 12x20 6-hole flapper (post #25), and a few others.

Shout out to AA Targets! @banks74

Does the 300y range at Great Guns have intermediate berms? If not then it would likely not be allowed to put targets at the intermediate distances, unless portable backstops were used like we had at the BRC match. These were mostly 36x48x1/4 AR550 and were a big struggle to set up and tear down, at 10.2# per SF.

This would of course be a non-issue if we could find a silhouette range with intermediate berms already there, like at Green Mill or the CRC.

I own a set of hostage targets, 50 yard kyl, and a fair amount of single pieces

Thanks but organizing targets is the easy part - I obviously need a venue first!

 

[Starbuck]

I am preparing a proposal to the CRC to create a new RF match on their silhouette range, which goes to 500m.

Not sure we would want to shoot that far, but I'm happy to discuss via PM. Please don't derail this thread with your theories and opinions on appropriate RF target distances, please PM me to discuss.

More importantly, If anyone has a personal relationship with a member of the current CRC Board, please shoot me a PM. Thanks.

 

[Starbuck]

I am pleased to announce that the CRC has approved my Long Range RF match proposal. This new CRC match will give competitors a chance to stretch things out, so to speak. Check out the link below:

Rifle Competition Events - Colorado Rifle Club - Long Range Rimfire Match

Match Description: This match is designed to be fast-paced, fun, safe, and to challenge competitors’ practical field shooting skills, such as wind reading, rapid target acquisition, magazine and DOPE changes during shot strings, and optionally, shooting off a tripod. This is not a PRS/NRL style...
