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.

Current Match Report
Sanner’s Lake Woodstock Match Report – May 2026
Cool, cloudy weather swept away the earlier heat wave, and the accompanying rains held off just long enough to make for excellent shooting conditions at the May Woodstock match at Sanner’s Lake. Once again, Brian Forsyth and his well-regulated 1903 Springfield took advantage of the crisp late afternoon air, nabbing the top spots across the board, with Ron Ferguson following close behind.

The next Woodstock match will be on June 18 — see you there!
