Hi

Its 22 long rifle standard velocity or high velocity no hyper.they tend to damage the targets . As for high power 243 and up no magnum and nothing over 3000fps.On 3/5 scale you don't need anything over 2550.fps. This is what I use on full scale in 7mm08.

Will get some date shortly.

Rod do you do one at the Spruce Grove Range? I know it doesn't have the distances, but I figured rimfire would be a go for sure...Joe

I was a an executive meeting last night,we don't see any problem for 22 small bore.in Genesee.We could start in May. I also have ringers in full size silhouette,that we can use all the way to 500m. As for the hp 3/5 scale we will have to walk the range and figure things out. We would need a small berm at 120 and 231m there is already adequate berms for the pigs and rams.

As for Spruce Grove the range is to narrow past 200m.but will continue the small bore silhouette there.

Adding berms sometimes needs a development permit.Month of May for 22 in Genesee looks good. And for high power we might have to shoot at my ringers. Those are shot at 200m 300m 385m and 500m.
