Lynchburg area shooters - have you been to the Izaak Walton League of Lynchburg(actually located in Madison Heights area)?
300 yard rifle range , 50 yard pistol range, several T&S fields including 5-stand, archery, 2 lakes and more located on over 300 acres. Seems a lot of folks don't even know it's there !
Action Pistol shooting seems like the hot thing now. Check it out www.IWLA.org/Lynchburg

Just moved to Amherst from north Atlanta. I have been interested in checking out the iwla.

Ladies and Gents,
Our last Action Pistol match was cancelled because of very cold weather. But hopefully our regular Third Wednesday Practice session will have better luck.

Come out and join us to do anything you want to as long as it is safe. PCC's are welcome. You can even come and watch if you want to see what Action Pistol is about.

To register contact Joe at joekincaid@earthlink.net

Everybody is welcome including new shooters with no action pistol experience. If you are not a member tell Joe so we can unlock the gate for you.
