I think that since the rimfire range got re-purposed for 'action rifle", you do not need a certification to shoot rimfire on the BP range anymore. I am not 100% sure and will check and get back to you guys.
From the January 2013 newsletter:
"The new Black Powder/Silhouette/Rimfire Range has comprehensive rules regarding type of gun, targets and ammunition. Please review these rules carefully before using this range. Certification is no longer required on the BP/Sil/RF range to shoot at metal targets, but ammunition is restricted."
To be certified, a shooter needs to attend a couple of our matches (incl the safety briefing prior to the match) and buy a book (which shows they have gone thru the process). The key reasons are
1) to make sure the shooter knows that the targets can be damaged if hit by rifle ammo they were not designed for
2) safety rules for the silhouettes and BP range.
For most TCGC members, this may be a moot issue soon. The Executive Range Officer is talking about buying swinger silhouettes for use by the general membership on the BP range. Will let you know when I know more.
