Gut Schuss,

This is great! I did not know that family’s are welcome and that rifles can be provided… I will be talking to my father about this tonight because we both loved to shoot back when i was in the Boy Scouts.
wunderbar!
Indeed, it’s a great event and rifles and ammo are typically provided.
You just answered my next question…. We were debating if we needed to bring our own ammo
Brandon, I’m sure the Schützenkameraden wouldn’t mind if you brought your own ammunition. It doesn’t seem as if it’s a prerequisite.
Ammunition is not provided, unless another shooter is gracious enough to hand some off. 22 longs are cheap.
As far as a rifle goes, typically any number of shooters will allow you to use their personal one, but that is not the same as the club providing free ammo and use of rifles.
I have participated in a couple of shoots and that is my experience.
Viel Spass!
That all depends on the group and their generosity. Rifles are provided, Darren makes a very good point.
