Match Description

Our Long Range Practice matches are a great way to hone your long range shooting skills in a competitive environment.
Competitors will engage a static paper target from 200 yards to 1,000 yards under a variety of timed conditions in a specified Course of Fire (COF). 

We walk the entire range for all distances. Make sure your gear is mobile.
This is not a very physically demanding event but every competitor is required to carry their gear from the pits out to each line, all the way to the 1000 yard line and then back in.
The walk is roughly 2.5 KM round trip.
We shoot rain or shine in all weather conditions unless it is deemed by the Match Director that it is unsafe to shoot, please dress accordingly.
