    Falling Plates: Action Pistol Match takes place on the 50 yard pistol range. Contestants compete against the clock to knock down six steel plates mounted on racks located at the 25 yard line. Competition starts 10 yards from the plates and progresses backward to distances of 15, 20 and 25 yards. We sometimes also shoot bowling pins at this match.

    Please Note: Falling Plates are going to be held to a more strict start time than they have been in the past. The calendar states that the event begin at 10 and that’s going to mean that the shooter’s brief starts at 10am. Please be on site, paid, and prepared to start the shooter’s brief at those times.

    • 200 Yard Range


    Competitors use three different firearms -- a modern sporting rifle (MSR), that is, a rifle built on an AR-platform; a pistol; and a shotgun. Matches generally involve courses where the shooter must move through different stages and engage targets in a variety of different positions. Each stage will generally require the use of different firearms and require the shooter to transition between them.

    All levels of shooters welcome!

    The targets might include clay pigeons, cardboard silhouettes, steel targets of varying sizes and anything else the match organizer designates as a target. Distances of the targets might vary from 1 yard to 200 yards or anything in between. The shooter who hits the most targets -- and avoids certain "no shoot" ones -- in the least amount of time is the winner.

    Match rules abide closely by those set up by the International Multi-Gun Association (IMGA) or the United States Practical Shooting Association (USPSA), which regulates some matches. Each of these organizations has guidelines and rules, but the ability to adapt them for specific matches is what makes 3-gun competition dynamic and exciting.

    Just as it is with the practical pistol matches, 3-gun simulates combat or self-defense situations. A stage provides a certain scenario for using one or more of the guns in a specific sequence. Each stage is each match will usually be different than any you've shot before.

    Please Note: 3-Gun Practice Matches are going to be held to a more strict start time than they have been in the past. The calendar states that the event begin at 11 am and that’s going to mean that the shooter’s brief starts at 11 am. Please be on site, paid, and prepared to start the shooter’s brief at those times. 

    Equipment

    • Rifles:
      Most serious competitors choose MSRs in .223 caliber with fairly short barrels in the 18- to 20-inch range and 10-round magazines. But any semi-auto that will handle larger magazines are normally permitted.
    • Shotguns:
      Any reliable autoloading or pump-action shotgun will work. For serious competition, it should have an extended magazine tube, a good set of sights and interchangeable chokes. Both shotshells and slugs are used in most 3-Gun matches.
    • Pistols:
      Most shooters use 9mm semi-autos, but the .38 Super and .40 S&W are also popular in some divisions.
    • Accessories:
      Each shooter needs a holster for the pistol and some sort of belt/pouch system to carry extra magazines and ammo.
    • Ammo requirement will vary by match. Contact rangemanager@wcgc.org prior to the match for the current month's ammo requirement.

    Five Stand Fun Shoot!

    Five Stand is very similar to Sporting Clays in that a wide variety of targets are thrown. No two five-stand events are exactly alike. There are five “stands” or stations to shoot from. There are 6 traps that throw targets in different presentations. Participants shoot in turn at each of the 5 stands and various combinations of targets are thrown from the traps. There is a menu card that will advise the shooter of the sequence of targets and whether its a single, report or true pair.

    Five Stand is a great way to get a Sporting Clays like experience in a small amount of space, with very little walking.

Please show a copy of these Protocols as well as the WCGC Calendar. Be respectful, share the Range.

    Before handling any firearm, familiarize yourself with these safety procedures:

    1. Know how the firearm operates — including safely opening and closing the action of the firearm and removing ammunition from the gun or its magazine. For free safety and operating instructions, write to the manufacturer or visit its website.
    2. Always keep a gun pointed in a safe direction, even when handling an unloaded gun — so that if it were to fire it would not result in injury.
    3. Never assume that a firearm is unloaded. Immediately open the action and look into the chamber(s) for ammunition, or if the gun has a magazine, carefully remove it before opening the action.
    4. Always keep your finger off the trigger, even when handling an unloaded gun. Your finger should rest outside the trigger guard or along the side of the gun. The only time you should touch the trigger is when you are ready to safely fire.

    Bring a firearm with you to do the safe-handling demonstration. Do not bring any ammunition with you to the orientation. If you plan on shooting after the orientation, please leave all ammunition secured in your vehicle.

    This orientation is designed for new members (or those who have let their membership lapse). It covers the 4 basic rules of safe firearms handling, club and range specific rules/policies/procedures, and a hands on demonstration of proficiency of safe firearms handling. A tour of the facility and ranges is included.

    Mandated for all new members. Encouraged for all current members.
