Douglas Ridge is proud to present a new discipline: .22 Rimfire Challenge! Our inaugural event in October 2013 was a blast. To start things off we will be doing quarterly matches with an eye on hosting a sanctioned Ruger Rimfire Challenge match either late 2014 or spring of 2015.
What is .22 Rimfire Challenge? It is an introduction to competitive shooting for speed. You can use anything chambered in .22LR, pistol or rifle. When you come to the line you will have 5-7 static steel targets to shoot at. A coach will explain what targets you are shooting at and give you the command to fire. Shoot at all of your targets as fast as you can. When you hit the last target (known as the stop plate) the timer stops. You get 5 chances to shoot each stage of the competition. Your worst time is tossed out and the rest are added together to make your score. That's all there is to it. No reloading, no holster draws, no move and shoot, no mind games - just fast and fun! There are courses of fire for both pistol and rifle. Come on out and give it a try. This is a family friendly event so bring the whole family and your friends.
All matches are from 9:00 AM - 4:00O PM. Our contact for this discipline is Ben Edman via email.
