 | Time time allowed to complete the course of fire is 25 minutes, which includes the
laying out of your equipment, setting the scope and adjusting your position - you must
leave the firing point 25 minutes after your detail starts - whether you are finished or
not. |
| The course of fire (at each distance) is :- 2 Sighters plus 15 to count. |
| Both sighters can be converted to counting shots if the shooter wishes. |
| The course of fire is as follows:-
 | The shooter fires 1 shot at the target. |
| The marker will ask the shooter if he/she wishes to convert. |
| If 'Yes' the shooter fires 14 more counting shots, making a total of 15 to count. |
| If 'No' the shooter fires a second shot. |
| The marker will ask the shooter if he/she wishes to convert. |
| If 'Yes' the shooter fires 14 more counting shots, making a total of 15 to count. |
| If 'No' the shooter fires 15 more counting shots. The original first 2 shots become
'sighters' and therefore do not count towards the scoring total. |
|
| All ammunition is supplied free, but competitors may use their own 'commercially
available' ammunition if they choose. |
| Rifles used must conform to National Rifle Association regulations governing 'Target
Rifles' |
| Scoring
| Placings in both competitions will be determined by the highest score being awarded 1st
place; the next highest 2nd place and so on. |
| Ties will be determined on a countback from the amount of 'V bulls', 5's, 4's etc.
gained. |
| A shoot-of for 1st place only, (in each competition) will take place between the tying
competitors if a countback fails to determine the winner. |
| The shoot-off will consist of one shot from each tying competitor, the highest scoring
being deemed the winner. |
| If the highest scores are tied after the first shoot-off, lower scoring competitors will
drop out and further shoot-offs by those still tying will take place until an eventual
winner (with the single highest score in that round) is arrived at. |
|
| Appeals on any aspect of the shoot not governed by these rules must be made immediately
to the Range Conducting Officer (RCO). |
| The Range Conducting Officer (RCO) will have total discretion in all matters relating to
the competition procedures, except scoring disputes. |
| Appeals will be settled on the day (if possible) by the RCO's in consultation with
nominated committee members. |
