Bill Poole Report post Posted April 20, 2011 Shooters & Hunters! This coming saturday 23-Apr is the Hunting Rifle Shoot - hunting rifles and equipment, animal targets, realistic distances, positions and scenarios. http://arizona-rifleshooting.com/hunting-rifle-shoot-PRGC.html I am planning the stages now, if you have any suggestions let me know! We'll probably have antelope out to 400 yds, in addition to whitetail or mule deer and bear from 200 to 300 and maybe as close as 100 and coyote's at 100. Phoenix Rod & Gun Club, PRGC is at 7th AVENUE south of baseline, on the High Power Range 7am set up, 8am start or so. bring 40 rds of ammo one or several hunting rifles. eye & ear protection, water etc. $15. This is a monthly event, except we take summer and hunting season off. We'll do it again 22-may and 25-sep. Poole Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill Poole Report post Posted April 23, 2011 ... 13 year old son enter also? Are there still a few spots open? Any clay pigeons?, Also can I use a range finder... No age limit but obviously one must be big and mature enough to handle a rifle have never filled up and if we did we'd still squeeze a few more shooters in I did a 3 gun shoot with CF rifle (big game), clays (quail) & shotguns then rimfire rifle (rabbits). May do that again. but not this weekend. use any gear you would carry and use on a real hunting trip. Since its a standard high power rifle range, its pretty easy for members to estimate distance, if you're half way between the 200 yd and 300 yd line, its probly 250 yds.... but use the range finder if you normally do, that will give you practice handling the equipment, for instance if there is a 30 second target exposure, that's how long you have to get into position, zap the laser, put it away, get the rifle up, get on target, breath, squeeze, follow through.... to those coming, see you in about 8 hours! to everyone else, see u 22-May!
