Steel Challenge shooting matches are the perfect way to test your speed and accuracy on the range. With a focus on quick draws and precise shots, these matches challenge shooters to hit a series of steel targets as fast as possible. The courses of fire are designed to be fun and engaging, with a variety of different stages that will test your skills in a range of scenarios. And with divisions for all skill levels and firearm types, there's no reason not to try it out. Plus, with the support of a friendly and welcoming community, you'll feel right at home from the moment you step onto the range. So whether you're a seasoned competitor or a newcomer to the shooting sports, come out and experience the excitement of Steel Challenge shooting matches.
Steel Challenge stages consist of 5 steel plates from three different shapes, including 10" circles, 12" circles and 18"x24" rectangles. One of the plates is designated as the STOP plate, and is the plate you shoot last. You will shoot each stage 5 times and keep your best 4 runs. Your score is your overall time for the best 4 runs, including any penalties.
