Mark these dates on your calendar. All matches will be in the morning, and additional details will be posted here as they become available. We don't have firm information on exactly which matches will be shot at which date yet, with the exception of the September 19th date. That one will be our own home-grown "Karabiner Challenge", which will mix traditional Swiss rifle discipline with a slight flavor of American-style high power shooting. The most notable changes will be inclusion of an off-hand stage at 100 meters, and a reload from charger during a 300 meter rapid-fire stage. It ought to be a lot of FUN!!! The top five shooters will each get to carry a trophy home for their efforts. And the top three shooters will also be entitled to full or partial refunds of their match fees (100% for 1st, 50% for 2nd, and 25% for 3rd). Hope to see you there! EDIT - see the last couple of posts for updates on the Sept. 19th "KARABINER CHALLENGE" match.

Set-up will begin around 07:30 on the High Power range; we'll start shooting when the light gets good enough. We'll be shooting the "Feldstich", which is a new match for this year. This match replaces the "Feldschloesschenstich" which was discontinued by the sponsor. This match is, however, the exact same format - cammo field targets, 300 meters prone, same course of fire, same scoring requirements. This IS a medal match. See you there.

We will again be shooting the "Feldstich" match on the cammo targets for those who missed the first match, or failed to medal on the first go-round, and also shooting the SSV or "Federal" match on the bull's eye targets. These are both medal matches. Set-up at 7:30 AM, and shooting as soon as the light is good enough (8:30-9:00). Come on out to Mill Crek Rifle Club and join the fun - last time we had 8 shooters, 4 of whom scored medals (two of those were first-timers!) We will have a several diopter-equipped rifles for loaners, first come/first served. Bayani C Trp 1/2ACR Bayreuth, FRG '84-'85 NRA Patron Member FFL 03

Same time, same place. We had two more medal winners last time out, including a first-time shooter who scored his medal with the K31 issue sights on the first attempt! Who says you need a diopter? (Well, it sure helps, anyway ). Bayani C Trp 1/2ACR Bayreuth, FRG '84-'85 NRA Patron Member FFL 03

This will be the last chance on the Feldstich and SSV for those who have not made it to any of our earlier matches. ALSO, several of us will be shooting the SRDC Postal Match on this date. If you have enrolled for any of the classes in the postal match, come on out and shoot it with us! Bayani C Trp 1/2ACR Bayreuth, FRG '84-'85 NRA Patron Member FFL 03

Posts: 580 (08/12/09 21:30:31) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	This will be our last Swiss Rifle match at Mill Creek Rifle Club this year, so if you haven't been able to make any of the previous matches, this is your last chance! As stated previously, this isn't an official "medal match", but rather, our own home-grown attempt to add some more fun to the Swiss shooting season. This match will be a cross between the official Swiss-style matches and American high power. There will be a rapid-fire portion with a required reload, and also a string fired offhand at 100 meters. It's going to be a lot of fun, and the 5 top scorers will be awarded a trophy on the day of the match (photos required!). Set-up and registration will begin at 8 AM, and shooting will commence when the light is good enough. Make your plans to attend, and don't forget to find that 100-meter zero!

Posts: 593 (09/13/09 21:20:08) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	Here's some additional info about this match: As this is an actual "shoot-for-high-score" match, it will only be shot ONCE - no 2nd chances! The course of fire is 24 rounds total, with two strings of up to six sighters (one at 300m and one at 100 m), so the most ammunition you will need is 36 rounds. The sighters at 100m may be fired prone or sitting, but the record string is fired standing. We have Swiss chargers available for loaners if you don't have your own. Bring your empty-chamber safety flag if you have one, as they are required. We have chamber flags available for sale at $3 ea. Don't miss this last match of the year, as it is going to be a lot of fun! Rumor has it that at least a couple of our friends from Nebraska are going to come down and provide some marksmanship lessons. Bayani C Trp 1/2ACR Bayreuth, FRG '84-'85 NRA Patron Member FFL 03
