Thread: ORC Practical Rifle Match (March 2017)

The Otorohanga Rifle Club is hosting it second Practical Rifle match. This match is an individual shooting competition involving 12 separate matches spread over 3 set distances (200yards, 300yards, & 400 yards). The matches are set to test a variety of shooting skills including precision shooting, positional shooting, speed shooting, and competitor confidence! We learnt a few lessons in the first match back in December and so hopefully we can balance the competition a little better this time. The match difficulty has been set such that all competitors should have a fun day!

The competition will be held on Sunday the 19th of March, 2017. This event is limited to the first 30 paid entries only.

Entry fees will be non-refundable unless the organizing staff agrees otherwise e.g. if you tell us a month out you’ll likely get your entry fee back, if you call me the night after the event then don’t expect anything back.

In general, any rifle of calibre up to and including 300 Winchester Magnum shall be allowed.
The minimum round count will be 70+ however the recommended round count is 100 and competitors are highly encouraged to bring a few extra as a few of the matches have unlimited round counts.

If you want to enter then get in touch with me for more information (entry details, rules and draft course of fire).
