NSSF’s Annual Boy Scouts Grant Program Kicks Into Gear

NEWTOWN, Conn. – As part of an annual program that encourages youth participation in the shooting sports, the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) is once again partnering with Boy Scouts of America Councils. This year’s program makes available $100,000 in funding, double the amount of previous years. Successful BSA Council grant applicants can receive a portion of those grant funds provided by NSSF to develop or expand their troop activities in target shooting and marksmanship. Target shooting programs rank among Scouting’s most popular activities, teaching marksmanship, firearms and range safety, teamwork building and fundraising skills.

“Now in its fifth year, NSSF’s BSA Council Grant Program has an enormous impact in encouraging both local council leaders and their troop members to further their firearms safety education and sharpen their marksmanship skills,” said Samantha Pedder, NSSF Manager, Outreach and Diversity. “These grants continue the mutually supportive relationship the Boy Scouts of America have long shared with NSSF and they are yet another way NSSF is able to further its mission of promoting, protecting and preserving hunting and the shooting sports.” Read more

Oakwood Controls Introduces Weatherproof H-Bar Electronic Target System

York, PA — Oakwood Control’s has introduced a weatherproof model of its Portable H-Bar Target System. This system was designed for professionals, as well as enthusiasts, that need instant feedback on long-range shooting in a portable package.

All shot and group information can be displayed in inches, centimeters, MOA and MIL. Notes can be saved for each shot group and sessions can be stored and later retrieved for further review and analysis. Read more
