Who: Western Rifle Shooters Association
What: Intermediate Rifle Clinic
Where: Douglas, WY – see details below
When: August 25-26, 2007 - 8:00 AM – 6:00 PM
How much: $75/day - $150/weekend per person

NOTE: Wyoming State Shooting Association (WSSA) members with proof of current membership will be admitted for both days at a reduced rate of $75 per person. We will have WSSA membership forms with us ($15/year), but any non-members who want to take advantage of this discount should go here and sign up for WSSA membership in advance.

Prerequisites: Each shooter will be expected at all times to adhere to the standard gun safety rules, with special attention to muzzle and trigger finger control.

Your weekend will be more enjoyable if your rifle is cleaned, properly lubricated, and zeroed at 200 yards. All shooters will have an opportunity to zero their rifles at appropriate distances.

Make sure to remember your cleaning equipment, lubricants, and any necessary tools/manuals for all of your gear.

Finally - this location is in the high desert. Every participant should be rigged with enough clothing, water, and other supplies to enjoy two very full and active days in 100 degree, high UV conditions.

Rally point details: All shooters should meet no later than 7:30 AM (7 AM if you're eating breakfast) each morning at the Broken Wheel Truck Stop Restaurant. It's on the right just off the first Douglas exit on 25 North.

As a group, we will then proceed to the shooting location for the day. Note that the shooting location for each day may be different, so assembly each morning at the rally point will be a necessity. It will take less than 30 minutes to drive to the range.
