BOB WARD’S EXPANDS ITS NON-PROFIT BENEFICIARIES FROM ANNUAL SHOOTER’S WEEKEND TO INCLUDE THE BUTTE GUN CLUB AS WELL AS THE SPECIAL FORCES ASSOCIATION “DEVIL’S BRIGADE CHAPTER”
MISSOULA – Bob Ward’s Sports & Outdoors’ 13th Annual Shooter’s Weekend, held on August 6TH and 7TH, is a fund raiser for non-profit organizations. This year Bob Ward’s has selected the Special Forces Association “Devil’s Brigade Chapter” and the Butte Gun Club to share the proceeds from this event. Bob Ward’s has teamed up with several of the top brands in hunting and shooting to raise funds for these great organizations. More about both non-profits can be found at their respective websites:

On Saturday, August 6th, the shoot will be held in the Missoula area at Deer Creek Shooting Center.
On Sunday, August 7th, the shoot moves to the Butte area and will be held at the Rocker Gun Range.
Times for both events are 10am – 3pm. There is no charge for spectators, but there is a charge to demo guns and shoot. Proceeds from shooting tickets in the past have been donated by Bob Ward’s to various outdoor and sporting related causes.
Shooter’s Weekend is an opportunity for enthusiasts to experience hands on demonstrations of a variety of rifles, shotguns, and handguns from many different manufacturers. Shooters are encouraged to bring friends and family, as this is an event for everyone from novices to experts. Bob Ward’s experienced staff, vendors and volunteers will be on hand to assist all shooters. Children under 18 years must be accompanied by a parent in order to shoot.
The world’s top firearm manufactures will be represented along with several more exclusive brands. In addition to the usual rifle, shotgun, and pistol stations, Shooter’s Weekend will feature a suppressor station and a large caliber station. We can’t give everything away, though. A few surprise items will be available that are sure to be crowd pleasers!
Bob Ward’s and the manufacturers provide firearms and ammunition and request that the public not bring their own.
