2019 Palma Alliance™ Postal League
Attention Palma shooters: the 2019 Palma Alliance Postal League begins May 1, 2019!
The intent of this league is to promote friendly competition between Palma shooters in different parts of the world who normally would not get to compete against each other on a regular basis. The basic idea is this:
League participants will compete in all of the matches that they would normally shoot during a season. Participants will send in match results from all NRA approved/registered matches they shoot that include either 600 or 1000-yard stages. I will log all scores on a master league spreadsheet, and shooters will be ranked based on percentage... [read more]
Post 435 Gun Club Annual Service Rifle Clinic - June 1, 2019:
Our clinic consists of about 2 hours of classroom lecture and demonstration followed by a 50 shot CMP approved Over the Course match.
Cost is $40 for a safe, fun filled and informative day.
We have loaner rifles and shooting gear, we also have ammunition available. (contact us for price).
Pass the word! This is an excellent opportunity for anyone wanting to learn the mysteries of marksmanship.
This clinic will satisfy the shooting requirement to purchase firearms from CMP.
Nebraska 2019 Season: 300 Meter & 50 Meter Rifle Matches
There are three 300 Meter Rifle and 50 meter 3-Position match planned at Weeping Water Gun Club WWGC, Weeping Water, NE. The dates at WWGC for ISSF 50m 3 Position are 4/20, 6/29, and 10/12. Not sure of the time but probably 0900. Register and set up will be at 0800. 300m will be shot on the reduced target for 200 yards. 300m will be immediately after the 50m event. Finally, a shoulder to shoulder match for 50m and 300m. I am the match director for the 300m event, so my plan is to shoot both back to back. I am only expecting 3 shooters at first for the 300m. Not sure how many with 50m.
This will take some time to network, so if you are down this way on those dates perhaps you can bring your rifles.
