Vintage Match at Magnolia this Saturday (9/11)

We are having a Vintage Match at Magnolia Rifle & Pistol Club in Byram this coming Saturday (9/11). This will be the last Vintage Match for the year so I encourage everyone to come. We had a great time at the last match, though there were several sore shoulders afterward . The match will start at 9:00 a.m. so I need all competitors there by 8:45 a.m. Any help getting set up would me appreciated . The match fee is $10.00 and ammo will be available to purchase at a reduced rate for the match. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

P.S. If this is your fist match at Magnolia, please make sure to bring a signed and noterized affidavit provided by CMP http://odcmp.com/Competitions/Affidavit.pdf

What type rifles can be shot in the vintage match?

Any pre-1960's military bolt action rifle including 1903 Springfields, U.S. Model 1917, K98 Mauser, Swedish Mausers, Argentine Mausers, British Enfield No. 4s, Mosin-Nagants, etc.

Can a friend of mine shoot his AR just for funsies? I'll be shooting my 1903 Springfield but I have a K98 and ammo if anyone wants to play with it.

I think we "draw the line" at VB matches. ONLY vintage bolt-action rifles. Sorry.

Target size and distance please....

shooting position? prone, standing kneeling? Don't know much about it

I mught dust off the ole cosmoline soaked Springfield 1903

It is the standard 200yd HP match just only using VB rifles.

M1GarandFan.... What time are you getting there in the morning?

Hey, in your list of VB rifles... You left out my poor little Yugo mauser....

Don't forget to bring your "sick" AR for the "Doctor" to look at......

Neck, put on some extra headbands and grab a few towels, and come shoot your '03 with us tomorrow.

Hey SGF,
I plan to try and get there by 7:00 a.m. I already got ice and drinks today instead of trying to do it in the morning and get delayed like usual. Gotta get things together tonight, just got off job #2 a little while ago. I'll make sure to bring the "patient" with me. Also some 25m targets too.
Sorry for the omit on the Yugo. I should have included it along with my Argentine Mauser
