For anyone who has not tried mixed steel, we steal the spot USPSA doesn't use in the winter(1st Sunday of the month ). It is setup to use as a practice match for 3-gun usually using shotgun and handguns. The format is very open ended and most stages you can shoot the way you want and what you think will give you the most practice. OR show up with what you have (Centerfire pistol/shotgun, Rimfire rifle/pistol, PCC, Slingshot/blow gun, NO CENTERFIRE RIFLE, Everything else or combination of the two we can make it work) and we have the ability and divisions to let you shoot. I will have more detailed round count the week of the match. The match is $10 Signups at 9:00am-ish shooting starts 9:30am Setup at 8:00am Dates for this year s matches are: Mixed Steel- January 7, 2018 February 4, 2018 March 4, 2018 Multigun Matches- April 7, 2018 July 29, 2018 Medford Multigun- March 31, 2018 June 30, 2018 Thank you, Josh ***************************** The Jefferson State Friends of NRA banquet committee has moved 2 its annual fundraising banquet date to March 17 th for 2018 and will continue with a spring event in future years. The banquet will be held at Mike s Field House in the Steen Sport s Park again. The date change is to facilitate participation by those who are involved in hunting, as many have expressed interest in attending but have had conflicts with hunting season at that time of year. Friends of NRA gun of the year will be a Kimber Custom II in.45acp along with a Silver Stag knife in display case. Other guns that will be raffled or auctioned are: A Weatherby Vanguard in 7mm-08, a Colt Cobra in.38spl, a diamondback AR style rifle in.308 and a Sig 320 in 9mm. There will be numerous other items specially commissioned for Friends of NRA banquets only so mark your calendars for March 17 th, 2018 and join other NRA members in raising funds for our many educational and training programs and range improvement grants. We have a new raffle for the New Year and a person that buys one of the calendars will be eligible to win any of 104 firearms! Mailers are being prepared and will be sent in the not too distant future. So if you haven t been able to attend one of our events in the past now is your opportunity to join in the fun. Please be reminded that all of these funds are used for NRA education and training, firearms safety training, youth programs and shooting range maintenance and improvement and that none of the revenue is permitted by law to be used for political purposes.
