just a reminder too anyone who may be interested. the match is coming up quick on july 10th/11th. it's an informal match and a fun one for practice for larger matches.
 
I am hoping to be there!!!!! Might only be for saturday, but I am making plans.

For those that have never been before. Jason host a nice event. If you are new to this 200 and 300 yards is easy distance to learn how to shoot mid range and what you can do.

I went last year and I enjoyed the match, it was nice to meet Jason and the range was very nice.
