Saturday, June 5th Stemmers Run is having another bowling pin match from 1200 until 1500 at the Associated Gun Clubs pistol range in Marriottsville. Anyone is welcome to come, you do not have to belong to the club or have an AGC range badge so if you've been thinking about checking out AGC this is a great opportunity to do so and maybe win a little money.
The entry fee is 5 dollars and we have 6 divisions:
-Open Semiauto Centerfire
-Limited Semiauto Centerfire
-Open Revolver
-Limited Revolver
-Open Rimfire
-Limited Rimfire
We shoot at polymer knock down targets shaped like bowling pins from 25 feet. Since they are polymer knock downs we don't want to tear them up so no wadcutters or hollow point rounds are permitted, it's round nose only. No 357 or 44 magnums either, but that's also for your own good as they go too fast and won't knock them down. Your best bet is slow and heavy with 40 or 45, though 22's will easily knock them down if you hit in the right spot.
Each shooter gets 5 heats per entry (you can enter multiple times in the same or different division) where you shoot at 6 bowling put cutouts. You are limited to 6 rounds per magazine but you can have as many magazines as you want, this puts folks with subcompacts on the same turf as those with high capacity double stacks. We time each heat and average them. The person with the best time in their division wins half of the entry fees. Some folks have almost payed for their range badge this way. It's a fun day and a great introduction to shooting and reloading on the clock.
