Fellow lever action enthusiasts,

The 2005 Lever Action JUBILEE is set for October 29 & 30 in Ridgway, PA.

Bring your Marlins / Winchesters / Savages & numerous rounds of ammunition (jacketed or cast bullets) to Ridgway Rifle Club, located on Grant Road in Ridgway, PA for some lever action silhouette fun!

This is a fuunnn match, first and foremost. The main idea is for lever gun enthusiasts to get together in a relaxed atmosphere to talk about and shoot our favorite lever action rifles.

Bring as many rifles as you want! Some for show too!

Course of fire: NRA HIGH POWER RIFLE SILHOUETTE
chickens - 200m / pigs - 300m / turkeys - 385m / rams - 500m
40 shot match each day - 10 shots at each distance.

You can shoot as many shots at the first steel target until you hit it, then shoot 1 shot ea. at the next 9 targets.

Shooting position: freestyle (sitting, prone, etc.) slings are ok but artificial rests like cross sticks are not permitted.

- Two classes: iron sight / scope
- Use a different rifle at each distance if you want to.
- Entry fee: $5.00 per day - shoot one or both days
- Cartridges may be single loaded

Saturday, October 29

Sunday, October 30
8:00 - Range open for sighting in & practice

The clubhouse is available Saturday night for an overnight stay. Bring your sleeping bag / cot. The Royal Inn is located within 10 minutes of the range. Phone: 814-773-3153.

The range is located on Grant Road at the west end of town. Take main street west to Grant Road and turn right. The club is located about 2 miles down the road on the left hand side. The entrance to the silhouette range is about 200 yards before the clubhouse.

Spectators welcome!

Hope to see you there!

Looks like fun, do they ever have a cast boolit match?

I am not too far from there. Maybe 6 hours.

David,

Yes, it's usually the 2nd weekend in June. In that match, scope sighted bolt action rifles are the norm.

There are several shooters at the match next weekend that will be shooting cast bullets.

Hope you can make it.

Sincerly,
