"Is the match only for benchrest shooters?" Meaning can only people with full blown benchrest rifles compete? No, these Club Fun Shoots are open to everyone. So bring your stock factory gun out and shoot with us. It's all about shooting and having a good time. These are not registered shoots. Generally speaking most people start out in Factory class. If there is enough interest we could hold a introductory class into score benchrest shooting.
