PRPC is building a dedicated range for shooting 100 and 200 meter metallic silhouette.
Because of all the disciplines (NRA pistol, cowboy rifle and .22 rifle, and IHMSA pistol) fired on different targets at different distances, the matches will be fired at a single target at each distance, equipped with a sensor and LED light to indicate hits. IHMSA will sanction this approach. NRA has indicated they will consider sanctioning.
Because the need to reset targets is eliminated, firing through a 40 target set only takes 30 minutes. Shooters will start on chickens when there is an opening, IHMSA style. Targets are T1 steel - -cartridges that damage them will not be permitted to fire.
Here is a link to the various NRA silhouette disciplines. (Note no 500 meter courses of fire will be offered on this range)
https://www.ssusa.org/articles/2018...wsletter&utm_medium=insider&utm_campaign=0518
The IHMSA disciplines are Big bore, Big bore 1/2 scale, Field pistol, Smallbore pistol, Smallbore pistol 1/5 scale.
Is there any interest (outside of PRPC) in attending these matches?
What disciplines are of interest?
What is a good weekend to have them monthly?
Thanks for any input or questions.
