22 Rimfire - Youth Shoot Sunday afternoon April 17

One of the early objectives when starting the 22 F class program was to get more youth shooting.

But the competitive nature of the adults has kinda precluded all of that.....

So with all that in mind, I'd like to have a youth 22 rimfire shoot at my place on Sunday afternoon April 17th.

Sat April 16th was out due to the normal 22 F class shoot at Magnolia.

I realize that the wind may be a factor on a spring afternoon, but I guess we just gonna have to deal with it. Or we might not start still late afternoon say 4pm.....Time TBD

Only stipulation that I have on this one is no one over the age of 16 is gonna pull a trigger. I'd prefer to see more "sporter class" rifles also...Not Sinclair rifle rests, Nightforce scopes and match grade barrels and thumbhole stocks.

Coaching is obviously allowed

we can shoot 50 or 100 yards...which ever you prefer.

I will need some help running the match...and probably a few target stands

'Neck

If ya'll are out of 22 bullets on the 17th

I'd entertain having an adult only Vintage mil-surp "friendly" match

I have a 300 yard berm..actually its a 289

Choose your poision

I will help with the youth shoot.

Going to Alabama to get my "new" M1 on the 16th, if I make it back in time that would be a great way to break her in!!

I will certainly help with either of the two ...

Way to go ! My hats off to you 'neck.

I sure hope you get 6+ juniors to shoot. I will help.

Edited to add............. Sorry, I have to back out. I have a Range Usage & Safety course at Magnolia that afternoon.


.

We usually have choir practice at 4:00 on Sunday but I'll try to have both my junior's there. If enough sign up.

Sign up if u interested

We can start early afternoon to accomodate church folk

Can handle 10 shooters at a time pretty ez

I can probably scare up a few juniors myself

We will give it a week.

How long you reckon it will take from start to finish?

As long or as short as you want it to be...I can be there Sunday am to set up target stands and can stay till dark 30

I'd like to keep it simple.....Only rules are safety oriented

Get Lil Johnny a brick of 22 ammo and come "churn and burn"



I realize its short notice from an organization point of view....Sorry bout that...I'm a busy man.

If it don't work out, we can reschedule to another time...

I just wanted to provide an "opportunity" for some juniors to come shoot. The schedule at Magnolia R&P is pretty tight

well Geeezzzz...

Hurt a fella's feelings...no takers yet

U self-centered adults!...only worrying about your own 22 F class results....for shame for shame....



Guess its a bad time...ya'll will be too worn out from Big 22 match on the 16th I guess

Hang in there Neck..... Give more people time to read your posts.....

.

I should have said I'm in and got a jr shooter that said she wants to shoot , but you know how many times a 15yr old girl can change her mind in a day , so I'll have to wait till the day of to be sure she is gonna come.

Yeah I'm working on my 15 yr old daughter myself

kids have a whole lot activities competing for their attention these days....

well at least I can run my post count up a little on this thread while I wait...I've been taking it EZ on you folks the last few months

Yeah Neck you've been slackin on your post.
As long as you have one other shooter I'll bring atleast one of my sons, both if they both want to come.

Is this still on the books or what?

Actually...It really should not be on the books now...

Gotta make some improvements to the shooting platforms with box blade Sunday afternoon.

was gonna do it Friday night...but tomorrows rain is gonna really screw up my plans...and Sunday afternoon is the only time i'm gonna have to do it. Sat will be too wet to move dirt...most likely

If its a earth shattering disappointment, we will work around it.

I have 2 shootin platforms and i gotta fix em both...but the range can be open...

shoot me a pm if still interested and we will work something out

That's cool bro. Just wanted to make sure weather we need to be there or not.

Need some help? May can come lend a hand.
