No holster for .22 you shoot from low ready

Also nick will only let you shoot one gun now unless there are less than 60 shooters which is a possibility

For 22s you don't need a holster. You start muzzle down. Centerfire guys start in a holster.

I may not make it tomorrow. Got a head cold brewing.

I'm hooked !! It was a very fun match,had a great time.blue skies and sunshine nearly all day.Will check the results when posted this evening.

We need to go to Redmond this year and try the Ruger rimfire challenge. That's if their doing it again this year.

Thanks Benny, Ill have to check it out.

Last Sunday Speed Steel had a new class. Rifle/pistol combo. 3 stages rifle and two stages pistol. Lots of fun trying out the stock 10/22 for speed steel.

Im gonna try speed steel at TCGC this Saturday. I cant find any Ruger MK III mags locally. Ive got 3 but Ive heard I need 5. If anyone has 2 in good or better shape please PM me.
Thanks, Dave

Dave, Speed steel is on Sunday not Saturday. (try Hillsboro Gun show this weekend). If you don't find any come on down anyway. There may be someone there who can help. If the weather's nice there may be a lot of shooters (74 last month).

I'll be there with my 10/22s

if the weather is nice?? dreamer !!

I think the closest range to Gresham that has a speed steel shoot is Douglas Ridge Rifle Club.
