Palmyra Sportsmen's Association (near Hershey, PA) - Field Target - Sunday, June 18, 2023.
Our AAFTA (sub 20 fpe) Field Target format is 3 separate 5 lane loops or mini-courses. Someone can shoot all 3 loops for a unique 60 shot match course, or can choose to shoot any combination of loops, including shooting the same loop multiple times. A loop consists of 5 lanes with 2 targets per lane shooting 2 shots per target for a total of 20 shots per loop. There will always be a loop on our rifle range, which is friendly for those that do not want to walk on terrain. Each loop will also have one lane with a forced position (standing or kneeling).
We will also have a loop setup for Extreme Field Target (XFT). This will be a 20 shot course with targets at distances between 15 and 110 yards. We have an 80fpe and 30 caliber limit on guns that can be used for XFT.
There is no single scheduled start time for this event, you can start shooting a course when you show up. Most of the experienced AAFTA shooters will choose to arrive near the earliest start time, and will choose to shoot the full 60 shot course.
You can shoot both AAFTA and XFT field target at this event, be sure to bring the appropriate equipment for each if you intend to participate in both.
We will be open for sign-ups between 9AM and Noon. Cost is $5 per loop. Sign-up and sight in range is at our Competition Rifle Range.
We shoot rain or shine. Our range loop is on a covered range, and if we expect rain, all loops may be on a covered range.
