On Target Africa magazine

Send It, ELR Shooting 22LR ELR match from 7 March 2026 and now taking place on 5th September 2026.

Excerpt from Issue 82 March 2026, On Target Africa magazine
The .22LR ELR match at PEKS Shooting also saw minor changes, with the introduction of a tiny (10 cm by 10 cm) cold bore target set at the first target (155 m, 188 m, and 166 m) of each of the three ranges. The course was made up of three ranges with targets set from 155 m to 423 m, fitted with electronic hit indicators to confirm successful impacts.
All targets were 30 cm x 30 cm in size, apart from the cold bore targets mentioned before. Each match participant took one shot at the cold bore target, followed by five shots at each target, with three standard targets per range, for a 48-round count for the match.
To accommodate our young shooters, we again set up a separate junior range with targets from
88 m to 268 m. The juniors have their own set of targets smaller in size to make it more challenging to hit at closer distances.
