Rimfire Sporter
The CMP Rimfire Sporter Rifle Match gives shooters, of all skill levels, a recreation-oriented competition that allows them to use their favorite rimfire sporters (plinking and small game rifles) on the range. The CMP Rimfire Sporter Match is part of a larger CMP shooting sports program called the “CMP Games.”  The CMP introduced Rimfire Sporter in 2002 after four years of testing it in rimfire rifle clinics.

The Rimfire Sporter course of fire is designed so that every shooter who understands basic gun safety and rifle marksmanship can complete it. Rimfire Sporter is also uniquely challenging; it tests shooters’ skills in three different firing positions, at two different ranges, in both precision slow-fire and rapid-fire shooting.  

Rimfire Sporter stresses fun, accessibility and practical marksmanship skills. It is a great game for shooters who want a target event that does not require expensive tricked-up rifles or gear.

2012 is the 3rd year FWRR is sponsoring sanctioned CMP Rimfire Sporter matches.  This year, FWRR will be sponsoring 4 matches.  
Each match date will have multiple relays depending on walk-on participation and pregistration.  Each relay takes about 2 hours to complete including registration and the safety briefing.  All matches are open to the public, club membership is not required to participate.

Come out and give it a try!
