Here is a little History on the Mini-Palma Matches and course of fire for the day.

Palma Competition Matches began in 1876 and Included Prone Shooting out to 1000 yards. It has always been an International Sport, with National Teams shooting around the world for a Perpetual Trophy. The Matches stopped at the outbreak of WW2 and didn't begin again until Canada revived them 1966.

Mini-Palma Matches were created by the NRA to simulate shooting Palma with Smallbore (.22 rimfire) rifles at 100 yards.

Itasca Gun Club is now running Mini Palma Matches in 2021.
