Metal Madness Homecoming Match June 28-29 in Kentucky

Metal Madness is a great rimfire shooting discipline where shooters engage dozens of steel targets set up in a grid. This fun, action shooting contest for all skill levels runs at the Grand Rivers Shooting Range in Kentucky. Next month, on June 28-29, 2025, the Metal Madness Shooting Sports Association (MMSSA) will hold its major event of the year, the Metal Madness Homecoming match at the Grand Rivers range.

Metal Madness is a fun and challenging form of rimfire shooting. Whether you’re young or just young at heart, you’ll love the satisfying ping of hitting steel targets — no prior experience or special equipment required. Most .22 firearms will do just fine!

MMSSA is a rimfire shooting sport offering the instant gratification of ringing steel targets. No special or fancy “raceguns” are needed — most any .22 LR firearm will work.

What is Metal Madness?

Metal Madness is a speed and accuracy-based shooting sport where participants shoot rimfire rifles or pistols at steel plates. Each competitor will shoot through 10 stages, moving to a new shooting lane each time. Each lane has randomized numbered metal plates, which must be shot in numerical order.

Scoring is time-based, plus penalties for missed plates or shooting plates out of sequence. With misses costing 2 seconds each, hitting plates in the proper order is extremely important. The eight fastest times from ten lanes fired are added together for each shooter’s bracket time.
