BIG BORE RANGE CLOSED – ORPS (11am -4:30pm)

October ORPS is coming up

October’s course of fire is set, and this one is going to put both your positional shooting and your zero to the test.

Sunday, October 11th. Big Bore Range closes at 11:00 a.m. for setup, with shooting starting promptly at noon. Please bring cash for your entry fee.

Targets run from 25 to 100 yards, with some as small as ¼ inch, so make sure your rifle is fully sighted in before you arrive. With targets this small and distances stretching out to 100 yards, you are going to want to know exactly where your rifle is hitting.
