High Power Rifle

Across the Course Match

High power rifle matches are held the 2nd Saturday of each month.  Matches are conducted in accordance with CMP Rules for High Power Competitions. Cost for entry is $25, juniors $10.  Matches begin at 8am with target set up at 7:30am.  Shooting consists of 20 shots slow fire from the standing position offhand @ 200yds, 20 shots rapid fire from the sitting position @ 200 yds, 20 shots rapid fire from the prone position @ 300 yds, and 20 shots slow fire from the prone position 500 yds.  Electronic targets are used; competitors need a wi-fi capable device to display their target.

Mid-Range Match

Mid-range match is held the third Sat of each month.  Firing is prone from the 500 yd line.  Entry fee is $25, juniors $10.  Competitors shoot four (4) strings of 20 shots each with sighters.  Matches begin at 8am with target set up at 7:30am.  Electronic targets are used; competitors need a wi-fi capable device to display their target.

What do I need to get started?

For across the course matches, rifles can be bolt action or semi-auto.  Most popular rifle is the AR-15.  Rifles must be capable of holding five rounds in the magazine.  For mid-range matches, single shot actions are allowed.  A variety of other equipment is used by competitors such as shooting mat, shooting coat, spotting scope.  If you are new to the sport and want to see what it’s all about, come out to one of the monthly matches.  If you would like to try a match, let somebody know at the match and we’ll do our best to have some equipment loaned to you for the match.  Our goal is to have fun and learn about shooting more accurately.  Come on out and join the fun.
