COURSE OF
FIRE:
The all-outdoor
course of fire includes 4 separate timed 20 shot, 200-point phases
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 &
scored), followed by the 200-yard supported "sitting rapid fire" (2
60-second phases of 10 shots, each with a magazine change), the
300-yard supported "prone rapid-fire" (2 70 second phases of 10
shots, each with a magazine change) and the 600- yard supported
"prone slow-fire" (22 minutes, individually loaded, fired &
scored). Before each phase, every shooter is also allowed 2
"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 and on down to
5-points. Misses count as 0 and any X's count as 10-points and
are used for tiebreakers and bragging rights.
