Just got back from Wyo after battling through hopefully the last big snow of the spring. We just got through finalizing the stage areas for the match.
Here is a sneak peak & I will leave the rest to your imagination until June 21st!

Hello Everyone,
This weekend is the big weekend. All the sponsors have been unbelievable and very thoughtful in their commitments. The course is unbelievably green and lush as SE Wyoming has had an amazing spring and early summer as far as moisture goes.
The match format will run with 4 squads and will consist of 6 areas (4 on Saturday and 2 on Sunday.)
Friday, June 20th:
Early Registration, zero, safety briefing will be from 12pm - 6pm. (if you cannot make this please arrive 30 minutes early on Saturday morn.) We have a practice stage set up along with a 100 yd zero paper target board.
Saturday, June 21st - Match Day 1
Squads 1 & 2 will shoot Areas 1 & 2 first. Squads 3 & 4 will shoot areas 3 & 4.
8:00am Welcome and safety briefing.
8:30am Match Starts - Squads go to their respective areas
12:00pm-1:00pm BBQ Lunch

Lunch on the go from Subway.
2:00pm Match Ends
2:30pm Awards/Prize table at MAIN TENT (we would like to have you on the road no later than 3pm so people can catch flights back.)
What to bring?
• Binos- bring them if you got them, as you can see in the pics below, you will want to look over that beautiful country.
• Lasers- are allowed to check our provided distances, but are not necessary.
• Bipod- If you have a extra longer one for more angled shots it could come in handy, if not use your bag.
• Bag and Kit- bring a pack with any kit you may need to carry tools, clothing, shooting bags, ammo etc.
• AMMO- there are 5 targets at each stage, there is 18 stages =90 targets, you will have up to 180 rounds max to complete the COF.
• We will have water and food on site.
• Good hiking shoes or boots along with gloves, elbow pads and knee pads may help keep cactus out of you. (there will be some light hiking, enough to make you pant for a few minutes.) We will definitely have plenty of water for folks to get hydrated because of the heat and elevation.
Targets are mostly all hangers averaging 1-1/2 to 2 moa in size.
ranges are from 300-1400 yards, the longer targets will have flashers on them to back up spotters.
We may ask squad members to help spot some targets and if the spotter elects to use your help he will ask.

Hello Everyone,
We were truly blessed at the rifle match this past Saturday & Sunday. The weather was amazing overall, but the wind was humbling at times. Thank you to all the sponsors, range officers & support staff, and definitely to the shooters. It was most certainly an unforgettable time and I want to sincerely thank you all! There was a tight points race at the top of the heap and Chase Stroud edged out the field with an amazing 137 points. Chase scored on 78.7% on the possible points and averaged almost an 8 out of 10 possible points on each stage.
