I shot July's NRL22 match tonight and love it. Thanks again to all of you that inspired me to get back into .22lr rifles.
Fortunately we had a good breeze while setting up the course as these do take a while to figure out and set and it was HOT. I was soaked before the match. By 6pm when the match started the entire firing line was in the shade and really helped this old guy survive the heat.
My real surprise came when we added up all the scores and I won the open class with 428 out of a possible 500. This month's match seemed easier to complete stages within the 2 minute time limit and I only timed out on one stage costing me a chance at another 40 points, although it is very unlikely I would have got all the points even if I had hustled more.
Here is the course of fire if anyone is interested...https://nrl22.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/NRL22_JULY_COF_Final_SM.pdf
If you are getting bored with paper punching, steel shoots and lollipops, give this game a try. It's a blast. If there isn't a match within a reasonable distance of you, start one at your club. I believe it will grow in popularity quickly.
