Green Mill sportsman’s Club Shooting Range, Erie CO
In person, 8:00am – 8:45 am at the range, limited to 32 shooters
This is a “Quarter-Scale tactical field match” using quarter-scale steel targets that range from 35 yards out to 242 yards. The match consists of nine shooting stages firing 8 to 20+ rounds from supported and unsupported positions (e.g. standing, sitting, kneeling, prone, tripods, barricades, rooftops etc.) under time pressure. This competition mimics long-distance shooting in field situations and closely approximates long-range PRS style competitions.
The ballistics of a .22LR closely align with the ballistics (wind drift and drop) of a .308 (175g SMK) at 1⁄4 of the distance. In other words, if you manage to hit the 1⁄4 scale IPSC target at 232 yards with your .22, the elevation and wind call needed to “ring steel” will closely match the elevation and wind call needed to hit a full-size IPSC in the field at 938 yards with a .308. A detailed knowledge of your ballistics as well as good wind reading skills are required to make first rounds hits. The course of fire is fun and challenging and will help any shooter hone his or her marksmanship skills.
Who may shoot:
This match is open to Green Mill members as well as the public 18 years and older. A youth 12 years old an older may also shoot this match if a parent or legal guardian accompanies them AND shoots with them. Non- members must sign a liability waiver to participate.
Firearm Requirements:
This match is limited to .22 LR rimfire rifles only. Rifles may be semi-auto loading or bolt action and for safety purposes, all eligible firearms MUST be equipped with a detachable box magazine – No exceptions.
