Been almost all "egg matches" last few years. I prefer the traditional targets/ rules.

Think the current match caters to folks who like high scores

When I was a member there. Any thing listed on the calendar as a competition is open to the public. Non members pay a few dollars more than members. Hopefully one of the current members can let you know if it still the same.

 

[DaveP]

Think it is a couple bucks more for non members. Gate is usually open for matches. Usually.

Again it is no longer a traditional rimfire Silhouette match. Eggs instead of critters. It's shot SEATED for pity' sake!!!!
Scores are WAAAAY up though!!!

Any questions, contact Mark at below link.
He is great at helping new folks get started.

A Rimfire (also called small bore) Silhouette Match consists of shooting a total of 40 steel silhouette targets at various distances using a scoped rimfire rifle. Traditionally the match is shot in the standing position at different size animal silhouettes at 40, 60, 77, and 100 meters. Lately at Sanners we've been running a non-traditional "steel egg challenge" where the animal targets are replaced with small steel egg-shaped targets which are shot at from a seated position.
