Try Sietzland Rifle Club just across the PA border off of route 83. They just had an NRA 3200 last weekend and they have a Regional in June and another 3200 in September. This club's matches are listed as New Freedom in Shooting Sports USA.

For International rules I wear sweat pants and a Sauer shooting sweater under my shooting jacket and pants. For non International matches I forego the sweat pants and just wear my blue jeans.

I have a Walther LG300 and I love it. With that being said, I flat out dream about a Feinwerkbau 700 in black!

As previously said, attend any air rifle match and you will see all brands being fired and all are capable of awesome scores.

This may change because the rumor is that Shilen's new rachet rifleing process produces some great shooting barrels. May take a while though, smallbore barrels...

For outdoor prone a Sam Gates or a Warner in 1/6th or 1/8th. Anything finer than 1/8th will drive you nuts in the wind.

The Closter NJ facility was closed some time ago. The new place is in Arkansas.

I THINK this is it.
