Pistol

The club has an active Pistol Commitee which regularly sponsors a Postal league and NRA sanctioned Events.

NRA Bullseye outdoor matches, held Apr thru Nov, are three gun events, known as 2700's for the total points possible by firing 270 rounds. Ninety rounds are fired with .22LR, centerfire, and .45 pistols. Many, if not most, shooters use the .45 for the centerfire section. Slow-fire is shot at 50 yards; timed and rapid fire is shot at 25 yards. Slow-fire is 10 shots in 10 minutes per target. Timed-fire is 5 shots in 20 seconds twice per target, and rapid-fire is 5 shots in 10 seconds twice per target. Any sights may be used; "red-dots" are very popular....records have been set with optical and open sights. Competing in a 2700 is a long, fun day of shooting.

Our indoor Postal League is held Nov thru Mar, and 10 sets of targets are shot for record. The league has a dual purpose; we score for the club internal league and we submit 4 man team scores to the postal league sponsored by the Spokesman-Review. This postal league has been running for over 60 years and typically includes over 65 teams from the western states. The league is the .22LR section shot indoors at 50' using reduced targets. Any .22LR standard pistol (semi-automatic) or revolver with any sights are permitted. NRA rules apply.
