Second Sat. of every month. Entry fee is $20.00 and winner of each class usually gets money, and lunch is usually provided to the shooters (but neither are necessarily guaranteed).

Match details: Shooting starts about 9:00 AM and ends about 3:30 PM. Five record shots on each of ten different targets (five @ 100 yards & five @ 200 yards), with as many sighters as you want to shoot on each target. Seven minutes per target (plus a three minute warm-up on the first and sixth target), with about 30 minutes between targets; extra time for lunch between yardages.

Includes "Custom," "Modified," and "Factory" class. We alternate months shooting group and score. For more information see: https://rbgc.org/content.aspx?page_id=22&club_id=265856&module_id=471033. Contrary to what that link says, we shoot in Jan & Feb -- unless the weather is too nasty.


EDIT Non-members are welcome to shoot in these matches, and non-members may come and watch without shooting -- but they may be required to sign a liability waiver.
 
Do they have a covered space with tables to load during matches? Wanting to shoot there and wondering if I need to bring a table
 
We're shooting group on 4/10: five, five shot groups at 100 yrs; repeat at 200 yrs. Commence fire about 9, but 8 is a good time to get there.

Thanks for all the info. I have already reserved a hotel room. Cant wait to shoot with yall.
 
Thanks to KMcG for driving from Dublin to Dawsonville to shoot with us today. He did well -- 25 shots at 100 yds and 25 shots at 200 yds -- overall center-to-center average of those 50 shots was ~ .26 MOA.

The next "open" match is Jun 12th; we'll be shooting group that day. Come shoot with us -- factory rifles welcome.
