Any Vintage Rifle Matches scheduled for 2017 yet?

[Greg_D]

Any updates?

What kind of match are you looking for? I shoot in 2-3 rifle matches per month.
I primarily shoot these matches:
>>CMP GSM (200yrds)
- Garand
- Springfield 1903/1903A3
- Vintage (M1917, Mausers, etc.)
- Modern Military
>>CMP EIC Service Rifle. Across the Course (XTC), 200yrds, 300yrds, 600yrds
>>NRA High Power Service Rifle, XTC
- Service Rifle
- Match Rifle
>>NRA Mid-Range, 600yrds Prone Only
- Service Rifle
- Match Rifle
- Palma Rifle
- F-class

Let me know what your interests are and I'll tell you who hosts some upcoming matches.
If I'm there I would be glad to squad with you and help.
Most matches encourage anyone interested to just come out and shoot a match.
Everyone is really helpful, we will even let you borrow a rifle, a sling for your rifle, and or shooting mat.
The targets are larger than you think, the scoring area is a 37 inch circle at 200 and 300yrds.
At 600 yrds the scoring area is a 60 inch circle.

I resemble that remark.

Saturday November 19th at RBGC is the Fall Vintage Rifle Match.

We just held our third WWI vintage match at MRGC in Macon. Lots of good shooting albeit in non-traditional matches. But it was fun.
