Hassayampa Rifle Silhouette Club was incorporated in Arizona in 1976 as the Hassayampa Rod and Gun Club. The 5th NRA National Metal Silhouette Championship was hosted by the Club in 1977 at Black Canyon Range in Phoenix, AZ (now known as Ben Avery Shooting Facility). The club hosts monthly matches in both smallbore and high power silhouette at Ben Avery and has hosted the State Championships in both disciplines on numerous occasions.
While not associated with the Hassayapa Rifle Silhouette Club, Bob and Jeanie Hershey also host lever action silhouette matches monthly at Ben Avery. Additionally, they host the Arizona State Lever Action Championship in February and a Regional Lever Action Match in October of each year.
