[SoCalGoldenBearsHPRClub]

The Southern Cal Golden Bears HPR Club (www.goldenbears.org) will be hosting our monthly club match on Sunday, July 19, 2015. The July Match is also an NRA Approved match.

Match will be held at Fort Angeles (Ft. A) at Angeles Shooting Range (ASR). Signups start at 0730 with the first round going down range at about 0815. Cost is $12 for members and $17 for non-members. We're typically done by about 1000, and you can stay later for some extra trigger time after the club meeting.

This is a 100 yard "walk down" match where shooters will shoot Offhand, Sitting, and Prone. Shooters walk down and change targets between the stages while the targets simulate 200, 300, and 600 yard distances. Shooters are required to use centerfire .22 cal (AR 15 Service Rifle) or larger-caliber rifles (M1 Garand, as-issued or match-conditioned). Optics are permitted but not eligible for awards.

If you want to observe the mechanics of the match and hear the range commands, email the Secretary for a front seat spot.

If you have a conforming service rifle but don't have the other gear like a spotting scope or a shooting coat, email the Secretary for availability.

Any questions, don't be shy just email the Secretary - secretary@goldenbears.org
