I am pleased to announce the addition of two new Tactical Rifle Matches, a new Highpower shooters clinic, and a reschedule of the 1000 yard prone match to the TRC Highpower schedule! The two new tactical rifle matches have been put together to provide civilian, military, and law enforcement shooters with an opportunity to shoot a prone rifle competition using semi-automatic rifles or bolt action rifles generally thought of as being “tactical” in design and use. The first match program, Mid-Range Prone Tactical Rifle Match, has been designed for “AR-15” based rifle platforms and offers a challenging course of fire out to 600 yards. Bruce Johnson will be the new Match Director for the Mid-Range match, I think many of you know Bruce from his years of shooting many different types of programs at TRC. The second new match program is the Long-Range Prone Tactical Rifle Match which offers a very challenging course of fire out to 1000 yards. Both programs will be run from a tactical perspective. To support the tactical rifle matches and the X-course matches we have added a shooters clinic to the schedule which will be offered 4 times a year. The clinics will be run in a practice session format so that we can accommodate both new shooters and experienced shooters during the same program.
Lastly, we have moved the 1000 yard Prone Match to the four 5th Saturday’s of the year. Traditionally, in the calendar the 1000 yard match is the day after the NRA X-course match so it makes it difficult for shooters to schedule and pretty exhausting if you want to shoot both matches in the summer. Ron Zerr has volunteered to be the Match Director of the 1000 Yard Prone Match. Ron has just relocated to Tucson from Texas and he brings a wealth of experience with him, so we’re looking forward to seeing more shooters out for the program. Ron is looking for some feedback, so he’s added some questions and thoughts for you to think about and provide feedback on, if you are interested in helping Ron evolve the match program.
I’ve put in the new schedule, below and all of the changes are already up on the TRC website Calendar.
