Hello folks. Dennis will be the lead guy for our shooting contests at the Tonto event, and I will be helping him with setup, materials, etc.. Owl, if you have any 4" targets or 4" spots to spare, we may need those.
Dennis wrote out the info for each shoot event and decided to call them "disciplines". Not sure why he was inspired to use that term, but maybe Karen has been laying down the law since he got back from the Alaska wilds and he's had to clean up his act. So - here they are.
Scheduled Shooting Disciplines for Tonto Basin
1.) The Rimfire Shoot at 30 yards: ANY rimfire sporting rifle (or pistol), iron sights only- no optics. May use front rest, bipod, shooting sticks etc. Shooting rest must touch the ground.
