Fellow lever action enthusiasts,
The 2005 Lever Action JUBILEE is set for October 29 & 30 in Ridgway, PA.
Bring your Marlins / Winchesters / Savages & numerous rounds of ammunition (jacketed or cast bullets) to Ridgway Rifle Club, located on Grant Road in Ridgway, PA for some lever action silhouette fun!
This is a fuunnn match, first and foremost. The main idea is for lever gun enthusiasts to get together in a relaxed atmosphere to talk about and shoot our favorite lever action rifles.
Bring as many rifles as you want! Some for show too!
