Club Rifle
Atglen Sportsmen’s Club will be offering Club Rifle again this year to complement our small-bore silhouette program.
For those unfamiliar with it, rifles used are .22 caliber rim fire of any action with either open sights or a 4X or less scope. We’ll be using the larger ½ scale silhouette targets. at the standard distances of 40, 50, 77, and 100 meters.
The match will follow our existing format of 80 shots.
The Club Rifle event is not NRA sanctioned or registered and no classification book is required.
