The Defensive Practical Rifle Match is a shooting sport that uses practical rifles/carbines and equipment suitable for real world use, including full charge service ammunition, to solve simulated real world self-defense scenarios. While primarily a rifle/carbine event, pistols also sometimes used in a stage with them. Rules require practical use of cover.
Slings are required before and after a stage; may be removed during a stage. Empty chamber flags required. Other safety and operational rules in effect.
Stages are limited to not more than 24 rounds, usually nearer 12. Typical match is 6 stages. Scoring is shooter’s time, plus target points down, plus penalties. Distances do not exceed 75 yards, with average around 25 yards. Some required shots will require precision. Others are fired on the move or weak shoulder. Rifle targets are IDPA cardboard. Pistol targets, normally around 10-15 yards, may be cardboard or reactive steel.
Competitors will be sent the day's gate code the evening prior, through Practiscore. Those not pre-registered/observers will need to text the phone number(s) posted on the 101st St gate pedestal the day of the event for that day's entry code. Bring exact change for match fee.
