There are some nice target rifles that show up at this shoot. I truly believe it's the man behind the gun and the elements. I shoot Ruger No.1's no modifications and a standard hunting style scope on all of them. I've managed to place in the top three spots six times in the past seven years. That's against rifle set ups that cost 4 to 6 times the amount mine do. 4 out of 7 years 1st place was won by standard factory rifle setups and the number of shooters have been up to 35 participants. This is the 8th year of the shoot. This is a great shoot for hunters and target shooters alike. Consistency is the key to winning the over all champion. The 100 and 200 yard targets are new to this shoot this year. Spread the playing field so to speak.
