EGC Turkey Shoot - November 2011

The club sponsored a Turkey Shoot on Saturday, November 19. The NRA Light Rifle Format was used, and prizes ranging from a Turkey to Turkey Spam were handed out. The Course of Fire utilized NRA Light Rifle Rules.

In addition to Light Rifle Rules, we introduced an "Unlimited/Expert" category for more experienced shooters or rifles that did not meet the light rifle rules (e.g., air rifles or competition rifles).

The categories defined:

Light rifle

Any sporting type rifle with an open sight, peep sight or scope. No laser sights.
The rifle must be in .22 short, long or long rifle caliber. A .223 is not a .22 for the purposes of this event.
The rifle cannot weigh more than 8½ pounds or have a trigger pull of less than 2½ pounds.
No slings or shooting jackets.

For the unlimited class, there are additional rules

For the unlimited class, we will still be shooting small bore but will allow air rifle or .17 caliber firearms that are similar to the .22 cartridge (not .17 Remington).
Heavy target rifles with light triggers allowed.
