What is Rimfire Steel?
The NSSF Rimfire Challenge is a .22 rifle and pistol program created to introduce new people to the shooting sports and provide a pathway to shooting competition. The NSSF Rimfire Challenge can provide individuals or families with a fun and exciting first-time shooting experience. For more info on NSSF Rimfire Challenge go to their website: http://www.nssf.org/rimfire/#&panel1-3
A typical club match at Sanners Lake will have 3-4 stages where .22LR pistol and rifle are shot at steel targets at distances of approximately 10 yds for pistol and 15 yds for rifle. Each stage will consist of 5 strings for rifle and 5 strings for pistol. Best four strings for each stage count towards the shooter’s final score. Our club level matches at Sanners Lake follow the general guidelines of NSSF Rimfire Steel Matches though at times may have some small deviations.
Divisions: Open - optics on either/both pistol and rifle; Limited - iron sights on both firearms
At Sanners we also recognize categories of: Manually Operated - DA revolver and pump or lever action rifle with iron sights; Cowboy/girl - SA revolver and period correct pump or lever action rifle with iron sights while wearing a cowboy hat.
What to bring?
.22LR pistol (semi-auto, DA or SA revolver), .22LR rifle (semi-auto, pump or lever), 350-400 rounds of .22LR, ideally 5 magazines or speedloaders for each firearm, and bag or case for each firearm. Contact match POC for availability of loaner equipment for the match.
