Steel Fun
Clinton County Farmers & Sportsmens Association
Steel Fun Shooting Event

Two or more steel target patterns will be set up in Bay 9. Standard caliber pistols and pistol caliber (PCC) rifles using non-steel core ammo are allowed. Based on participation and member feedback, we’ll pace these steel fun events going forward. I hope you’ll join me sometime soon for fun steel targets.

About the Range Safety Officer
By way of introduction, my name is Jim Leister. I’ll be running steel practice sessions initially. I’m pictured here with my trusty CZ75 SP01 AccuShadow in 9mm. I’m a 30 year resident of Warren county and have been a member of CCFSA for many years. I spend most of my time on the pistol ranges at CCFSA, but it’s common to see me using rifles on the 100 and 200 yard ranges. I can’t hit a clay target for the life of me, so you won’t see me on that side of the street! I’m a new RSO at CCFSA as well as an RSO at competitive steel events I attend.
Note: This is a Special Event being held weekly, CCFSA does not currently allow personal steel to be brought out and shot, Steel Shooting Events will have a qualified RSO present for the event.
