If you are interested in trying Bullseye shooting, there are going to be practices held Wednesday evenings in the downstairs range starting about 7:00 pm. The plan is to have casual practice followed by a few practice lines for slow, timed and rapid fire. Targets are available for purchase upstairs. Put payment in the box […]
If you are like me you probably spend too much time on YouTube, but every now and then something shows up that is worth having a look at. Check out this video showing how .22 ammo is made at the CCI factory. Benchrest is on Thursday evening, if you want to come […]
The Action Shooting/IPSC section has had a terrific start with 14 participants showing up for the first gathering on Monday, April 18th and a repeat performance the following Wednesday. The section will meet on Mondays and Thursdays in the Pin Pit and Action range with plenty of practice for both new comers and seasoned shooters. […]
Eight shooters made it out for our last scheduled mini-match of the season. Start time was 6:00 PM and was only made possible by setting up the major stage the day before. We managed to get 4 stages in before darkness this week and was a great end to the ARGC season. The […]
Five Black Badge Shooters made it to our Wednesday night mini-match to enjoy another 3 stages designed by Dale for our enjoyment. The night is coming fast and although setup started at 5:30 and only 5 shooters we did end up finishing pretty much in the dark. Something rather fun about those muzzle blasts […]
Six shooters showed up for our Wednesday Night Mini Match and with 5 Black Badge shooters we have another sanctioned match under our belts with two more classifiers! Dale did a great job on designing our last course of fire based on an attempted car hijacking. Shooter was in the car seat waiting at […]
Six members from the action shooting section made it out to the mini match on Wednesday, September 9th for three courses of fire in our two ranges. Dale designed three great stages but even his careful planning did not help him beat Bud for top spot. Although Bud uses his cane for walking, when […]
The action shooting group of Algoma Rod and Gun Club held their all steel match this past Saturday, August 22nd. It would appear that the second last weekend in August was not the greatest choice as many of our members were not able to make it and only one member from another club was […]
Another great night for shooting last night although the black flies have made another appearance. The Black Falcon (Randy) seemed to have angered them by swallowing one of their brethren whereupon they increased their angry attacks on all competitors. It was not enough to deter the 6 shooters who turned up for last night’s […]
After many weeks of battling rain, heat, and bugs we finally had a perfect night for shooting. The temperature was hot enough to keep the bugs at bay and there was hardly a cloud in the sky. Shortly after 7:00 pm the stages had all been set and we were ready to start the match. […]
Six action shooters braved the heat and humidity on Monday night to practice moving fast across a course of fire. Seems like we are always braving something. Cold, rain, bugs and now heat. It was a fairly simple course of fire with only three targets down range hidden by barrels so that you […]
Every once in a while… and not too often, one gets the opportunity to work and play with a group of individuals who understand that a club is not just a place to show up use and abuse the facilities but who share a vision of putting in time and effort to make things better, […]
You don’t get better by sitting on the couch and thinking about shooting, you get up and do it. With ten shooters in attendance the Wednesday night ARGC Action Shooting Mini Match was well attended. As per the norm, a 3 stage match was in order with all stages concentrating on the use of strong […]
A hardy crew of 5 action shooters gave up their Monday night practice last night to remove the debris pile left over from the tearing down of the old popper bunker. Henry was first on the scene coercing Mark to drag the trailer into the pit by hand and then loading up the first load of […]
Getting the most points in this game is not always a guaranteed winner, it takes speed and accuracy. And that was the theme for tonight’s mini match designed by Mark Donner. Low round count, minimum reloads, and limited movement would mean that hitting the targets accurately and fast would give you the winning combination. In […]
On a beautiful Saturday in July in Brighton Michigan the ARGC Action Shooting team showed up to shoot. The Livingston Gun Club, Ryan Rocks Charity Blast supports young kids with cancer by introducing them to the outdoors. After a morning briefing we headed off to the Chronograph stage where there was no more exaggerating your bullet […]
Thanks to Butch’s hard work and skills with a welding torch, the action section has two new small poppers to be used in practices, IPSC mini-matches and our all steel events. These are more portable than the large poppers we are used to and will allow us to add more complexity and fun to […]
The June Cleaver (end of June) IPSC Match was held on June 28th at the Algoma Rod and Gun Club and was attended by 10 local participants and one participant from the Crean Hill Club. Terrific weather and a challenging course made for a great day for all involved. Lots of work from the […]
With all that has been going on in the action shooting section the past couple of months it has taken a while to get around to trimming and resizing the videos taken at the All Steel Match held on May 9th but they are finally done. We had 11 people register for the event […]
