Oops, again.
Forgot about the rifle matches.
Most of the places we've lived didn't have them mostly due to the lack of ranges.
.22 rimfire matches were about the best we had.
Even a rifle duffer like me wasn't challenged much with the usual 100 yard ranges or the very scarce 200 yard ones nearby.
Too bad, as skill with a rifle is maybe one of the most important ones of all.
