This event is designed for beginners and advanced shooters. The goal is to have fun, be safe, and be welcoming to shooters that have never competed before. The event will follow the PRS series rules and general outline, but there have been changes made to the format and this match is not associated with any particular series. Shooters will self assign into beginner or advanced division. Beginners will have larger targets, receive on the clock coaching, and a loose enforcement of stage time limits.
The longest target is 200 yards.
There will be 6 stages.
Approximate round count: 80-100
For props, shooters can expect a tank trap, NRL22 Pyramid, tires, ladder, barrels, or similar. There will be at least one "run and gun" type stage.
A couple sample stage descriptions are attached in the event info. There are old stages and will be updated as we get closer to the event.
If you are unsure of what the match is about, check out the NRL22 Monthly CoF Walkthrough videos on their website. https://www.youtube.com/@nrl22.official The majority of the stages use a very similar format except optimized for gas guns.
The event has lots of positional shooting and movements which can be physically demanding. Adaptive positions are available for those who are unable to get into some positions.
Highly recommended gear:
Bipod
Rear bag
Optic suitable for 1MOA targets at 200 yards.
If you have binos/tripod, please bring them to help spot impacts.
Loaner gear is available for those that need it. If you think you will need something, like a bipod, let me know ahead of time so that I can ensure we have the right mounting setup for your rifle.
