    The biggest problem is you have to have a citified RO on the range every time someone wants to shoot.
    Which is why we had so many do it so I can go to the range myself to check my rifle and shoot out to 700M.

    That is NZDA making an interpretation there as to the level of training for an Officer on Duty. I understand to run a NZDA competition they want their people to be RO qualified (and good on them) but the Police minimum requirement for an Officer on Duty is far less.
    For example there is talk (GAC, DoC, Police) of DoC putting in place 100m ranges on DoC administered land. To be an officer on duty on these ranges, the plan is you go online read something and then tick the box that you understood it - RO qualified.
