Vintage Target Guns ???

Chicken Shoot · Jan 30, 2012

Do any of you use the vintage rifles for club shoots or NRA shoots? If so, which ones? I use mainly a Mossberg 144LSB and a Mossberg M46b.

No sure if these qualify as vintage but I have a Stevens model 15 single shot that I taught my kids on that still shoots great and I also have a Marlin model 780. First of the microgroove rifles I think.

Chicken Shoot which Clubs do you shoot at ? I'm a member of Sara Spa since 05 and Pinetree as of last summer!

Hmmm, sorry. Guess the Stevens wouldn't be considered a target gun now would it.

Any rifle you can teach kids with is a good one!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you can shoot it at a target ... it's a target gun!! LOL I have an old Stevens single shot and it's a little tack driver. I do shoot it alot and it's my backup gun for the 50yd scoped class.

I shoot at Stillwater Rod & Gun Club, Fish Creek Rod & Gun Club and I'm going to start looking into more serious competitions. I have participated in larger competitions years ago and I'm looking to get back into it. I'd love to get into Sara Spa but last I knew they were not accepting new members.

Agreed!! The Stevens mod.15 is a single shot bolt gun and it is an excellent shooting gun. Actually, when I want to concentrate on my shooting form, it's a great little gun to practice with.
