Match Schedule and Conditions:
The course of fire will be 50 rounds fired at two hundred yards using NRA approved target to simulate the national match course. Sighters will be fired during a sighting period prior to the first stage of the match. The match will be an unsquaded, individual match, fired at stationary targets. Rifles must conform to Rules 3.1, 3.1.1, 3.1.2 and 3.3 of the NRA High Power Rifle Match Rules. The course of fire may be increased to 80 rounds at the discretion of the match director based on, but not limited to, number of competitors, weather, or other considerations. Competitors should come prepared to fire 80 rounds.

Stage 1: 10 rounds slow fire standing in 10 minutes (SR target) [20 rounds in 20 minutes for 800 aggregate]
Stage 2: 10 rounds rapid fire in 60 seconds (SR target) [2 -10 rounds strings for 800 aggregate.]
Stage 3: 10 rounds rapid fire in 70 seconds (SR-42 target) [2-10 rounds strings for 800 aggregate]

A note on positions: The NRA has changed the rules for rapid fire. Competitors now start in the sitting or prone position, whichever is appropriate for the stage. The old "start standing and move to the firing position" is no more.

Classification: NRA classification system will be used. (Section 19)

Awards: Awards will be given to the match winner if more than five competitors, and to the highest competitor in each classification having a minimum of four shooters. All awards will be trophies.
