The Wheaton (Illinois) Rifle Club, in west suburban Chicagoland, is holding it's annual air rifle match on Friday April 16 & Sunday April 18.

It is 60 shots, 10 meters, NRA International rules, standing position, iron sights only (unless you are in the oldest Senior category).
Fired in 20 shot strings, in 35 minutes, at AR5/10 targets.
Five-shot Finals just for fun after the 60 shot match.

Jackets with straps, instead of button closures, will be allowed, but must not be "corset tight".
Seniors born 1941 or older will be allowed rifle scopes instead of iron sights. Senior scope shooters can only win their age group award.

Relays are Friday the 16th at 7:30 pm, and Sunday the 18th at 9:00 am and 1:00 pm. (We could run a Saturday evening relay if there is demand).

Fee is $10.

Awards: Match Winner; high score in each of the 5 classifications, 3 Jr ages, 2 Sr ages, & each Final.

The Wheaton Club is located in the West Chicago/Carol Stream IL area. Map available on request.
