IR 50/50 Rimfire Benchrest Match

IR5050 is a benchrest match using scoped .22LR rifles at either 50 meters or 50 yards.  Our match at SLSC is not an officially sanctioned IR5050 match but is similar in rules and requirements.  The targets are placed at 50 yards; there are 25 targets on each score card and all are shot within 30 minutes.  Only one shot per target square is allowed, but sighting shots can be taken as needed. Three strings (one target card per string) are shot per match for a total of 75 shots for record.  This is a "run what you brung" fun match so we do not sort our rifles into classes; everybody shoots in what is essentially the "unlimited" class.  That being said, we do note your rifle make and model so if you manage to out-shoot that guy with a slick custom action using your bone stock 10/22 you'll get special recognition in the match report!

 Sanner’s Lake IR5050 Rimfire Benchrest Match Report

6 September 2026

Clear and sunny Labor Day weekend weather greeted the competitors at the September IR5050 match at Sanner’s Lake, and while there were occasional (and much appreciated) breezes, they weren’t significant enough to blow the bullets around too badly.  David Nazemi certainly didn’t let the breezes bother him as he put up impressive scores with his newly acquired DPG CZ457, taking first place combined with an excellent 739-36X as well as first place individual with a super 247-13X.  Not too shabby for his first IR5050 match--congrats to David!   See all the scores and details below.

The last match of the year will be on 4 October, don’t miss your chance to come out on top in 2026!
