SB Rifle Silhouette in Illinios
« on: July 14, 2006, 10:26:19 AM »
Does anyone have info on SB Rifle silhouette shoots around Bloomington, IL (100 mile radius) ? I checked the NRA page and it looks pretty bleak for Illinios in general.

They used to shoot SB just north of Chillicothe at the Sportsmans Club.  Was a nice place to shoot numbers dropped off and they quit having the matches. You may be able to get something going.
Was some interest over west of Quincy in Mo.  Smallbore shot at StLouis Benchrest Club west of town close to 180 miles or so from you.  There were some unregistered matches at Leroy, Il a few years ago you may want to check out. Kind of dried up around here.  I used to run some at Taylorville but job is in the way now.

To my knowledge, the Beloit Rifle Club, some 25 miles north of Rockford holds monthly matches on the first or second Sunday of the month from May through September, and also holds a "Frozen Finger" match in January. Contact L. Grosenick, 911 Princeton Rd., Janesville, WI 53546; (608) 290-9667 for further information.

The have a beautiful smallbore silhouette range and the folks over there are great.
