An indoor .22 rimfire rifle (bullseye-style) meat shoot will be held on the 2nd Sunday of January (the 11th) starting at noon at the Millstadt Sportsmen's Club, a few miles south of Belleville, Illinois on Schmidt Lane. We've been having these periodically and everyone has a hoot.... so the club decided to do it on a regular basis.

Last month saw some great shooters show up... and the competition was excellent! The bar and kitchen are open for the event and there'll be a warm, toasty fire in the clubhouse's fireplace.

$2 a shot, 16 shooters in a round -- 1 shot per target and the closest shooter to the bull wins the meat. Prizes / types of meat being shot for are T-bones, Ribeyes, Bacon and Beef Roasts... with an occasional round for cash. No scopes or optics. Open sights only, peeps / ghost rings okay. If you want to zero your rifle before the match (recommended), they shoot CCI CB Longs at about 35 feet. Fire any questions or need for directions here. Thanks! Hope to see you there!
 
We had a great showing at the bullseye shoot this past Sunday, and thanks to those folks who showed up for the competition. Several guys told me they'd seen it on the Internet and wouldn't have known about it otherwise.

There were some GREAT shooters there.... and lots of packages of T-bones, Ribeyes and other meats were carried off afterward.

Another shoot is scheduled for February 8th at noon. Hope to see even more there!
