Course of Fire:
800 Aggregate Match
The all-outdoor course of fire includes four separate timed 20 shot, 200-point matches that, together give an aggregate possible score of 800 points and is shot from 200, 300 and 600 yards. The circular ringed bullseye style targets vary in size and have anywhere from 13 to 36 inches of aiming black, depending on overall yardage from the firing line. The first phase is the unsupported 200-yard”offhand” or “standing slow-fire” (22 minutes, individually loaded, fired and scored), followed by the 200-yard supported “sitting rapid fire” (two 60-second phases of 10 shots, each with a magazine change), the 300-yard supported “prone rapid-fire” (two 70 second phases of 10 shots, each with a magazine change) and the 600- yard supported “prone slow-fire” (22 minutes, individually loaded, fired and scored). Before each phase, every shooter is also allowed two “sighters”, or practice shots, which may be taken from any position. Every round afterwards at each phase is then counted for score, the maximum being for 10-points each down to 5-points. Misses count as 0 and any Xs count as 10-points and are used for tiebreakers and bragging rights.
