Golden Bears Events


High power rifle matches are held on the third Sunday of each month at Fort Angeles, a private range located at the Angeles Shooting Ranges. Club meetings are held immediately after the conclusion of each match. During Club matches we shoot 50 shots for record using targets with reduced rings to simulate at 100 yards the 200, 300, and 600 yard distances of the full National Match course. NRA matches are 80 shots for record on the same targets with scores and targets turned in to the NRA for official scoring. John Garand matches are shot with the M1 Garand rifle or equivalent with 50 shots for record all on the SR-1 target at 100 yards.
