Can anyone give me directions to find details of any major North Island/National fixed target (not Field Target) shooting events for PCP rifles in 2025?

I won't be competitive but I'm sure I'd have a hell of a lot of fun trying!

Field Target appears to involve moving around and shooting at silhouettes at varying distances (entirely based on what I've seen on YouTube).  I've never done it but there will be plenty on this forum who have.

My interest is in bench-rest shooting at cards with multiple diagrams chasing grouping or accuracy scores as appropriate.  I'd really like to give it a go as my Diana Outlaw is shooting exceedingly well after having made a number of 'refinements' since I purchased it.

What you are looking for is paper target shooting.

Not sure the airgun clubs do bench rest shooting. We only do that on practice days and to sight in.

I'm sure showing my ignorance!  

Paper targets are what we shoot at our club, 25yds indoors or 50m outside, both on small bore ranges.  We also do mirrored silhouettes indoors, but not FT.

Are there any competitions of this type anywhere in the country other than just Taranaki?

North harbor airgun club do all three. Paper, Silhouettes and FT. They normally send me their calendar for the years shoots but i have not received one yet.

The only Silhouette shooting our club does is mainly pistol shooting.

We shoot silhouettes with pistols also.  

If there's no Island or national championships as such I'd be keen to attend a club champs if that's allowed so please post your calendar or details of how to access it.
