Fun for me

Post by Rover »

I just moved to Coeur d' Alene. (Damn, this is a beautiful area!) The local club has a small Bullseye program.

Is there any other Bullseye or Olympic Pistol activity around? Can't seem to locate any on the web.

Don't be a wuss. Wait a few months and get into biathlon.

Not sure how far "around" you are looking for. Missoula and the Butte/Anaconda area had some pistol matches. You might try contacting the Montana Rifle and Pistol Association----they generally put out a match schedule that also includes Idaho,Washington, Wyoming and parts of North Dakota.

Join the CMP, if you are not already signed up. Then you can shoot the ACES program like I do. For 8 bucks they will send you the orion score cards, shoot them and then mail them back. Not a bad deal and they usually get 30-40 shooters.

Thanks, George. I planned to do some postal stuff, but I want to shoot what's here, too.

Hello Rover,

I grew up just across the state line in Spokane, Wa and competed as a junior in 3p smbore and air rifle. It's been over 20 years since I left so I don't know what the competition status is in the region but if you haven't already, I would recommend checking out the following:

Spokane Rifle Club - https://spokanerifle.com/
Spokane Valley Rifle and Pistol Club - https://svrpc.com/
Coeur d'Alene Rifle and Pistol Club - https://www.cdarpc.org/
Washington State Rifle and Pistol Association - https://wsrpa.org/ 2019 Pistol competition schedule - https://wsrpa.org/pistol/2019-pistol-co ... -schedule/

Enjoy the Inland Northwest!

Only CDARPC has "our" kind of shooting in the area (that I've been able to find).

Nampa, ID albeit almost 7 hrs from you had a good pistol program back in the day. http://www.nragc.com/shooting-disciplines/

You could also check out Sharp Shooting Indoor Range in Spokane and see if they have anything on tap or if they can point you in the right direction. https://www.sharpshooting.net/

Your best bet is the western side of Washington state. https://wsrpa.org/wp-content/uploads/20 ... hedule.pdf and, as another person commented, here's a bunch of reasons to visit the beautiful state of Montana: http://www.mtrpa.org/index.php/match-schedules
