Please spread the word! The Vintage Gunners Cup, September 23, 24, 25, 2016, at Hopkins Farm, Kennedyville, Maryland, will include a Double Rifle Competition, coordinated by Haley Pearsall. Let's hope to get a large number of participants! More information coming soon.
This is a side by side shotgun and rifle shoot and single shot rifle events also.

TransvaalMike;
A couple of questions for the new Vintage Gunners organization taking up the Vintage Cup:
Will vintage clothing be required to shoot the DR events?
Are only vintage DR's allowed, and if so what years of manufacturing is considered vintage?
Will there be a DR stalking (or similar name) rifle category, and if so what caliber/bore size is OK?
I am pleased to see the DR event coming for this year, and I hope the answers to the above is any double rifle mfg year and that the stalking rifle event is open caliber/bore.
Good luck to the event and Vintage Gunners.
