There are four senior Gunnutz and two juniors( one is a sub junior I guess!) that will be shooting these matches, and possibly a few more!

Thats a good start.
I am sure that once it is out for a while, more people will start to shoot it as well.
Here is the 50 yard unlimited rules:
50 yard unlimited
https://home.comcast.net/~t_j_walker/Targets/usbr85x11.pdf
Print off two targets. It is my recommendation that if you have any cardstock or photo-paper that you print it off on that. Fire 1 shots at each bull (24 shots in all) and fire 1 additional shot at one of the bulls to bring the total of shots to 25. If you miss the bull (but still get on paper), count shot as a “0”.
To score an X, the shot must completely covering the inside 10 ring. This will make for a maximum score of 250-25x
If you can not tell what ring a shot touches, please count that shot as the lower of the two. If you have a scoring gauge, you may use it.
RULES:
----------------------------------------------
1. From the front edge of the bench to the face of the target: 50 yards.
2. Weight: There is no limit on weight of the rifle or pistol.
3. Sights: Scopes may be used, there is not limit on scope power.
4. Triggers may be adjusted to a light pull, but must be safe.
5. Ammunition must be Rimfire: .22 Magnum, 17HM2 and .17 HMR are allowed.
6. Rests: Shoot over sandbags, shot bags, rice bags or any old bag. Use a tripod, bipod, a block of wood or a rock for your front rest. A bunny ear or rabbit ear sandbag is recommended for buttstock support. Shoot from a bench. Shoot prone with a sling or over sandbags. Shoot over a log or the hood of your pickup if you want. One piece rests are allowed. Rests must not be secured to the bench. If you can push the rifle forward after recoil, and the crosshairs are back on the aiming point, it is a “return to battery” rest, and return to battery rests are not allowed.
7. You may shoot more than one rifle each month: Not more that four targets per rifle.
