BRFGA Shooting Activities

 

Perhaps the most popular club events are the Fall "Turkey Shoots", held each Sunday at the range from 10 am to 2 pm starting in late September and running into November. Events, where competitors shoot at targets not live turkeys,  include .22 rifle at a mechanical silhouette target; a shotgun “card shoot”; clay pigeon (skeet); and hunting rifle 100-yard benchrest and offhand. We'll also hold hand gun events if there are enough competitors. The entry fee is $2 per event, or $3 for two. Prizes include frozen turkeys, hams, chickens, and pork roasts. The snack shack by the rifle range offers coffee, soda, donuts, hot dogs and burgers for nominal charges. The Turkey Shoots, which help provide funding for the association, are open to the public as well and shooters of all ages are cordially invited to participate. For more information call Barry Gibson at 633-5929.

 

 The Shoots normally run from the last Sunday in September through the first Sunday in November.  See Calendar Page for details.
 
 

 

 The Summer .22 Shoots are held every other Wednesday evening at 6 PM open to the public from the end of May through early September at the rifle range. Events include iron sight and scope rifle at 50 feet offhand, 100 yards benchrest, and 50 feet novelty, plus pistol offhand at 50 feet. Fee is $5 for the evening. These are fun shoots, .22 firearms only, and no particular level of shooting skill is required in order for members to participate and enjoy. At the end of the summer ribbons and/or small prizes are awarded to the first- through third- place winners of each event.  

 

After a hiatus of a number of years, the Association again competes with the Lincoln County Rifle Club for Interclub Shoots.  Events include offhand .22 and big-bore pistol at 50 feet; big-bore rifle at 100 yards, military rifle, .22 rifle offhand, bench-rest varmint (smallest group), and a skeet competition. It's lots of fun for both clubs (but those LCRC sharpshooters are tough to beat!)
