This may not be the place for this post, but if you could, then get plenty of pics of the people using AR15's and their copies/variants. We could use the pictures to show people that the "evil, military assault weapon" is not only a hunter's tool, but also competitive shooters' choice.

There will be another Groundhog Shoot on February 2, in Punxsutawney, PA. Of course there is only one Groundhog making an appearance and you have to be fast because he is up just long enough to see his shadow.

He looks like this:

thats pretty cool, but i'll have to get better first!!!! i'm ashamed to say my rifle is better than me!!! great gun, but i just got it two weeks ago and have only had the time and place to shoot it once to dial it in at 100 yards.

“Getting better” is part of the fun of these shoots.

We had a novice show up with a .300 magnum (“I LOVE recoil!”). By the end of the day, he was shooting better than the folks giving him advice!

It is fun to see a “professional” check out the folks we call “old retired farmers” and decide he wants to shoot in the stock class so he doesn’t have to compete with them.

It’s a very good natured group and a great time at the range.

I hope to see some forum members come out this year.

Take care,
Matt

Looking over the rules it doesn't look like there are classes for semi auto's

Is this a bolt gun only thing??? Or am I reading this wrong?

I would love to attend one (or more) shoots, but I'm afraid I am lacking in the bolt gun department. I have a great little scoped AR that would be a lot of fun at this though.

This statement would lead me to believe that the action does not matter:

Bolts must be removed at all times until given the instruction to install bolts by the Range Master. Immediately upon completing a relay, bolts must be removed prior to removing the firearm from the firing line. If the bolt can not be removed, or there action is without a bolt, the action must be open and an open bolt indicator must be installed in accordance with this rule.
