Activities

Our club is centered around high power: accuracy with a rifle across long distances and varying weather conditions. It’s both an art and a science and we have many generations of experience among our members. We typically hold 3 matches every month and a vintage match twice a year.

High power rifle competition is an exhilarating and rewarding sport that combines precision, discipline, and camaraderie, inviting shooters of all backgrounds to test their skills and push their limits. Imagine stepping onto a range, the crisp air buzzing with anticipation, as you align your sights on a distant target—sometimes 600 yards away or more—knowing every shot demands focus, steady hands, and mental clarity. This isn’t just about pulling a trigger; it’s a thrilling blend of technical mastery and strategy, where you’ll hone your marksmanship through challenging stages, from standing and kneeling to prone positions, often under time pressure.

Whether you’re a seasoned shooter or a curious newcomer, high power rifle matches, like those sanctioned by the NRA or CMP, offer a welcoming community where beginners can learn from experts and grow with every round fired. You’ll use rifles like the AR-15 or M1 Garand, firing in courses that test accuracy across various distances and conditions, fostering both personal achievement and friendly rivalry. The sport builds confidence, sharpens mental focus, and connects you with a diverse group of enthusiasts who share a passion for precision and safety.

No need for fancy gear to start—just a reliable rifle, a willingness to learn, and a desire for fun. Local clubs often provide equipment and coaching to ease you in, and the thrill of hitting that bullseye will keep you coming back.
