Military Woodstock

This match is for those nearly-forgotten (but not by us!) classic wooden-stocked long guns used in any aspect of military service prior to 1961.  Krags, Springfields, Carcanos, Mausers, Mosins, Thompsons, Garands, M1 Carbines, Trench Guns (slugs only), BARs, caplocks, flintlocks, wheel locks, and even matchlocks are all good candidates as long as some military in some country used it in some capacity.  You wanna blast away with your civil war musket and try to obscure the targets for the rest of us?  Fine, as long as you can load and shoot 10 times in 10 minutes!  No gun-mounted scopes or optics...iron sights only.  Peep or aperture sights acceptable.  No sporterized or "bubba" guns.  No composite stocks or bedded actions.  Reproductions are acceptable as long as they are reasonably representative of military issue.  All rifles must be reasonably serviceable and safe, and all SLSC restrictions apply (e.g. no 50BMG, full auto, etc).  Check with the match director if you have any questions.

Sanner’s Lake Woodstock Match Report – September 2026

The beautiful weather earlier in the week swung back to hot and sticky by the time Thursday rolled around, leaving just two competitors vying for the top spot at the September Woodstock match at Sanner’s Lake.  And once again Brian Forsyth and his ’03 Springfield came roaring out of the gate, never faltering and never looking back as he dominated both the single-string scores and the combined score to win the match convincingly and set a new personal best to boot.  Nice job Brian!

See all the scores and details below.

The last Woodstock match of the year will be on October 15, one last chance to set your own personal best!
