The Winchester Cup will be up for grabs this weekend, April 30 through May 3, at the California Side by Side Society State Championship. The Winchester Cup is awarded to the shooter who breaks the most targets during the competition with a Winchester shotgun.

Sun Mountain Gun Club in Coarsegold, California is hosting the shoot. Come on out and enjoy their beautiful facility. The weather looks to be great!

Thanks for posting the info!

Do we have to use shells or can I just bash them in the cases with the butt stock?  I seem to break more in the boxes on the way to the range than actually in the air…. Laugh

My percentage would be noticeably better with my 16# sledge than my 8# Citori but I get tired quicker with the hammer.

The Winchester Cup was again up for grabs at the California Side by Side Society’s State Championship held at the beautiful Sun Mountain Gun Club in Coarsegold, California the first weekend of May. The Winchester Cup is awarded to the shooter who breaks the most targets with a Winchester side by side shotgun over the three days of competition.

 
Competition this year was very close with four of the top six shooters across all events shooting Winchester Model 21 shotguns.
 
Michael Dickinson again came out on top when all the scores were tallied and he prevailed over second place by just two targets!
 
The California Side by Side State Championship will be held next year at Sun Mountain Gun Club the weekend before Mother’s Day. Come out and shoot!
