1956
The 1956 date was chosen to prevent M14/M1A1 and AR-15/M16 rifles from being used in this match. A survey of shooters indicated to us that people did not want these rifles to be legal for this competition. If you have a question about your rifle please feel free to contact us at the numbers listed below.
Top Shooters
We will keep a running total of shooters scores across all 4 matches this year. The top 3 shooters will be recognized at the VMRM pizza and beer party.
Match fee will be $7.00 and we supply the targets. The
matches are open to the public. Matches will be held rain or shine. We are
constrained by time so a limited number of relays will be run.
