Match Details:
The NRL22X match you’ve all been waiting for. What could possibly be better than last year’s Spool-A-Palooza? THE PRINCESS PARTY BIRTHDAY BASH!
Everyone loves a kiddo birthday party. Unicorns. Tiaras. Pink everything. Balloons. Cupcakes with sprinkles. Party hats. Non-copyright infringing cartoon characters. Glitter. So much glitter… And now – as a rifle match!
10 Stages of Rimfire in the hills of Brown County, Indiana. A tasteful mix of woods stages and open field stages. 105 second par times and most stages being 10 rounds (max 14 rounds per stage). The range is conveniently located close to I-65 between Columbus and Nashville. Targets out to 275 yards.
Camping? YES. This year we will again offer primitive camping on Friday and Saturday nights at the range. It is completely unpowered and unsupported. We cannot accommodate RVs. The driveway in is steep (much less steep than last year!) and your RV will not make it out. That said, there is an RV campground at the other end of Camp Moneto Road (https://www.awayadayrvcampground.com/booking), so RVers can stay very close. We will have a bonfire (weather permitting).
Trophies? Of course. Trophies will be awarded to the Top 3 Overall finishers as well as Top Lady, Top Young Gun, Top Old Gun, Top Base, Top Semiauto & Top Air Rifle [Provided there are at least 3 shooters in the division registered 2 weeks prior to the match. If there are not 3, those trophies will go toward overall match finisher positions so we can go deeper than Top 3]
We will have sight in paper targets at 50y. Then limited steel between 100-300y yards for dope verification. No match props or targets may be used during the sight in.
NRL22X rules apply. Due to safety issues at other matches, all shooters need an empty chamber indicator that inserts into the chamber (i.e., a mag block is not sufficient). We will have extras if you need one.
What makes this event unique and welcoming? See, supra.
Will this match be cart friendly? We will be shooting at 2 different ranges on the club grounds. Some stages will have a max round count of 14 so it is highly encouraged to have magazine extensions, or you’ll be required to conduct magazine changes. A cart could be useful as we will be using 2 different ranges, but they are 80 yards apart so it is also overkill and physical range space is limited.
What type of engagements can be expected at this event? Targets out to 275 yards. 105 second par times. Max of 14 rounds per stage.
What type of lunch will be included? Yes, we’re having lunch – it’s included in your match fee. Hoosier Tenderloin sandwich boxes. These are the iconic, unofficial state sandwich of Indiana. One of the best comes from Gnaw Mart, a local spot about a ½ mile from the range.
Will match swag be included and what deadlines apply? None.
Are there any activities scheduled the day prior? None.
