We are incredibly honored to be hosting this NRL22X match. As shooters ourselves, we are excited to bring you a fun and challenging match in the lakes area of Minnesota!

Lunch, snacks, and bottled water will be provided the day of the match. Food will also be available for purchase during Friday check-in/zero range/side stages/tune-up from the Reloading Shack by JT and Danette Hall. Please reach out via phone or email (listed below) if you have any dietary restrictions and we will do our best to accommodate them.

Stages with dedicated ROs: 10 plus side stages

Distances: up to 350 yds

Round Count: 120+ (does not include zeroing or any side stages)

Mulligans: $20 and must be purchased at the time of check in. Limit one mulligan per shooter. Mulligans must be announced immediately upon shooter completion of the stage and the shooter will take their reshoot immediately following the next shooter. Side stages for prizes will be available on Friday for $10/try. Each try will earn you anywhere from 1-10 tickets entered into a drawing for the prizes available. A match tune-up will also be available Friday for $10/shooter. Shooters will be able to walk the course of fire, but rifles will not be allowed during the tune-up. The money made from side stages, the tune-up, and mulligans will go to supporting the match/ROs.

Trophies: 1-3 for all divisions, depending on participation, 1-3 overall, 1-3 ROs, Top Lady RO, 1st place in classifications

Prize Table: Prize table walking order will be a combination of place finished and random draws. Top 3 overall and class winners walk the table first, followed by alternation between a random draw RO, random draw shooter, and the next highest match placement. We would like our ROs to be adequately rewarded for their participation and we will have the top 3 ROs from the RO match walk the table with the other class winners. We cannot provide high quality matches without high quality ROs.

Question: any questions concerning the match or any forms, please email or call the Match Director(s) northwestmn.22lr@gmail.com or Phone: 612-720-3397 (Suzie) 612-475-3831 (Hannah)

Range Officer Match Opportunity

We feel strongly that a big key to a high-quality match is to have good ROs. Good ROs bring consistency to stages for a fair competition and help keep the match flowing smoothly. We are looking for willing ROs to participate. ROs will eat free Friday and Saturday, will walk the prize table with the rest of the shooters, and will receive appreciation and respect from the match directors and the shooters. ROs will also be given the opportunity to shoot the course of fire on Friday. As long as we have 15+ shooters in the match, we will submit the match scores for NRL22X points. This will give them the opportunity to shoot the match, as well as allow them to become accustomed with the stages. If you are new to precision rifle competitions, ROing this match will be an excellent opportunity to get experience shooting with help from match directors, as well as experience spotting bullet impacts through spotting scopes. To RO, please reach out via email or Facebook to Suzie Lundsten at northwestmn.22lr@gmail.com.
