The shooting starts Wednesday, Nov. 16, with qualifying from 3 to 7:30 p.m. at the Club’s Indoor Range on Lebanon Road. League competition will be for the next eight weeks on Wednesdays from 3 to 7:30 p.m. Fee for the league is $20 for members and $30 for nonmembers. Shooters will need to have centerfire and .22 rimfire pistols. No magnum loads are allowed. Regular iron and non-magnified red dot sights are allowed. All shooters must be over the age of 18.

This year’s format will be team oriented. After qualifying, shooters will be assigned to three shooter teams based on their qualifying score.
