Saturday, August 7 we will be holding our monthly USARB Benchrest match at Mattawan Michigan, Southern Michigan Gun Club. We open the gates by 8 am, we ask that all shooters be registered by 930 am. and we start shooting at 10am. Our range faces east, to the morning sun, so an adjustable umbrella is a good idea to bring with you. We require Eye protection, and although we don't require Ear protection it's a good idea to use it. We will shoot 3 targets for a match at 25 meters, and a second match of 3 targets at 25 meters for an aggregate. For those that wish to stick around I will have 50 yard N50 targets with me and we can run 3 of those afterward as well. (And although N50 allows rimfire, we don't. We can only use air rifles at this range!)

The N50 will be a little less formal, as I have some things to take care of at the range in preparation for the "Great Lakes Invitational" match in September. The Deadline to preregister is July 31, so get your spot reserved quickly.

Greetings All,

We are getting real close to this weekends match at SMGC outdoors 25 meter USARB match. August 7th will be the date, Saturday, 10 am start time, I open the gates about 8 am. We can get here, and register, draw for benches, get our flags ready, etc. Please arrive by 930am. We’ll shoot 2 matches of 3 targets with a brief intermission between. We shoot 25 rounds for record, with unlimited sighters per target in a timed 20 minute session. We require eye protection and advise of ear protection however that’s up to your personal preference. I plan to stick around a little bit after the match to get a few things done for the Great Lakes Invitational. That being said, after the match, if you wish to also shoot a few N50 targets I will have them and the scoring plugs with me to try your hand at that. I saw a few real nice rifles a few weeks back do some amazing stuff at 100 yards. I’m sure 50 yards and a smaller target would be a great challenge.

Let me take a moment to remind everyone, we have a few openings for the Great Lakes Invitational and I’m closing registration down as soon as I can get a hard answer on Tee shirt and Trophy prices. So if you're still on the fence about getting to the Best Match East of the Mississippi this year, you should consider that most of you aren’t as far away as the latest person to sign up. We had a fellow Navy veteran from Southwest Virginia speak up recently and we will meet him in September at the GLI.
