Come join us at the Ascension Sheriff's Range Sunday for our monthly match this Sunday, November 26th.
The first event of the day will be the monthly Across the Course match and will include the Iron Sight Challenge.
Bring out those M1A's, A2's, Garands, or something with iron sights and shoot the Across the Course match. A special prize will be given to the iron sight division winner. And of course you can shoot your scoped rifle if that is what you would like to do.
The second event of the day will be the monthly F-Class Match.
The weather looks to be very nice with a low of around 50 and a high of 65.
Registration will begin at 7:30.
Targets need to be setup by 8:30.
Safety brief will begin at 8:40.
First shot will be at 9:00
The Across the course match is sanctioned by the NRA. Scores will be turned in to the NRA.
The course of fire is the National Match Course which consists of 50 shots for record and two sighters at each stage.

After the 50 shot-match we will hold the F-Class/prone match. This will start around noon, if you are shooting this match only, please arrive at 11:30. The match is shot at 300 yards. You can take up to 5 shots for sighters and there are 15 rounds for record. The record rounds must be fired in a 15-minute period. This match is shot prone and you can use a sling, bipod, or rest for support. Just about any rifle up to .35 caliber is legal, unfortunately the rules do not allow for muzzle brakes. Flash suppressors are fine as are suppressors. Entry fee is only a couple of dollars and you can find out how you and your rifle perform at 300 yards. NRA rules now allow suppressors in the tactical class.
