When: Sunday, April 10, 10:00 to 1:00 pm
Where: Salmon Arm Fish and Game Club Rifle Range
Who: Members of Salmon Arm Fish and Game Club plus one guest each. Under 18s must be supervised by a parent
Fee: $10 for members, $15 for non-members, on the day of the event
Basics:
The targets are small eggs hung on strings at 100 yards. In each round of the event, each shooter will have 5 eggs and 5 shots to hit them. The score for that round is the number of eggs hit. We anticipate each shooter will shoot 2-3 rounds of 5 shots at 5 eggs, depending on time and number of shooters.
Rifles:
Any rifle is allowed, centrefire and rimfire. A forearm rest is allowed, either bipod or rests provided at the range or sandbags. Only your shoulder can support the back of the gun. Bring your own ammo and rifle.
Protection:
Eye and ear protection are both mandatory. Both earplugs and earmuffs are recommended. A supply of earplugs and safety glasses will be available.
Sight-ins:
If possible, have your gun sighted in before the event. Time will be allowed for sight-ins from 9:00 to 9:30 the day of the event, before the event starts.
Volunteer Opportunity:
We will need help on Thursday April 7 at 7:00 pm, at the range clubhouse to glue the strings to the eggs. Please contact Ed Dunfield at 250-804-9966 if you can help.
Register:
Please register by email at safgcshoot@gmail.com. Early registration will help us prepare for the number of shooters expected. Pop and snacks will be provided.
