BIG MEDICINE PRC

EVENT DETAILS

The Old North Trail is Located along the Rocky Mountain Front. From long time past, beyond memory, the native peoples of this land, the Blackfeet, had used this trail with travois pulled by dog and horse. Medicine in the Native American idea is not just healing something but can mean the presence or power embodied in or demonstrated by a person, place, event, object or natural phenomena . To win this match you need to have Big Medicine.

The Big Medicine Precision Rifle Challenge is nestled right up against the Eastern Rocky Mountain Front west of Dupuyer, MT. This match will be one of the most beautiful venues offered with in any rifle series. Expect to engage targets anywhere from 200 to at least 1700 yards. Mostly natural terrain and all that entails. Also, be prepared to walk and have all your needed equipment with you.

Safety Considerations (other than firearms safety/ match safety): This area of Montana has a very high Grizzly Bear population as well as mountain lions and wolves. Be aware of your surroundings at all times. Stay away from lone walks into thickets and when you do walk make enough noise to alert the local wildlife that you are present. It’s a nasty thing surprising a grizzly.

Travel Considerations: Dupuyer, MT is a very small town. There are no gas stations or “regular” grocery stores. Dupuyer Cache is a small store with some grocery and convenience items.
