Sight In That Favorite Rifle

With hunting seasons just around the corner, big game hunters around the region are asking themselves the same question: Does my rifle shoot straight? That question can be answered positively on Saturday, September 14, at the annual Sight In event at Black's Creek Public Shooting Range, 2420 E. Kuna-Mora Road east of Boise. From 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., qualified experts will help participants get their favorite hunting rifle(s) - centerfire or black powder - and/or hunting handguns zeroed in on the bullseye. Cost per shooter is $8, and shooters may bring as many firearms as need to be sighted in. There is no cost for nonshooters. The Sight In event is sponsored by the Treasure Valley Chapter of the Idaho Hunter Education Instructors' Association and serves as the chapter's primary fund raising event for the year.
