The Vermilion Gun Club hosted a shootout in Grizzly Bear Coulee May 31 to June 2.

The Friday morning began at 10 a.m. with five different events: long-range pistol caliber rifle, rifle caliber lever rifle, rifle caliber single-shot rifle, Quigley long-range rifle, and long-range pistol. At 1 p.m., set-up for the main match stage and the banquet began, with participants pitching in to prepare for the potluck supper being held in the early evening.

The Saturday morning was equally full, with a mandatory safety meeting following the on-site registration. Competitors shot five stages. Mid-afternoon saw a last man standing competition featuring a random draw and head-to-head shoot-off. Later in the afternoon, attendees participated in a swap meet at the range followed by a banquet.

The Sunday morning began the same way the prior day had, with competitors shooting the final 5 stages. By 1 p.m., snacks were served at the range as the final results were presented.
