SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
Eye and hearing protection is highly recommended for Adult shooters and mandatory for Junior shooters.
COURSE OF FIRE:
A sight-in period will be available at 20 yards before the event starts.
The distance to the targets with all fi****ms will be 20 yards.
Six rounds will be loaded in the rifle and pistol, and the fi****ms will be spotted on the table, in a loaded and ready condition with the safety on.
Five rounds will be loaded in the shotgun, and the firearm will be spotted on the table on the far right, with the safety on.
NOTE: Each table will have a safety officer standing by to ensure that loaded fi****ms are not interfered with by spectators.
Starting with the pistol, the shooter is given the command "Stand ready." At the sound of the buzzer, the shooter picks up the pistol and shoots at the six plates from left to right. If a plate is missed, the shooter engages the next plate to the right.
When all six shots with the pistol are fired, the shooter will make the pistol safe and move to the right of the table, pick up the rifle, and engage the second rack of plates from left to right. The shooter will engage the next plate to the right if a plate is missed.
When all six shots with the rifle are fired, the shooter will make the rifle safe and move to the right of the table, pick up the shotgun, and engage the third rack of plates from left to right. The shooter will engage the next plate to the right if a plate is missed.
When all five shots with the shotgun are fired, the shooter will make the gun safe.
NOTE: If a shooter misses a plate and shoots at it a second time, the second shot will be considered a miss even if it hits the plate.
All rifle, pistol, and shotgun shooting will be done standing, with no part of the body touching the table. Slings may not be used during the rifle stage.
All pistol shooting may be done one-handed or two-handed.
SCORING:
The shooter with the most hits wins. Ties will be broken with the fastest time. The fastest time will be used as an "X" count.
With the speed at which this event is fired, we should be able to shoot several courses of fire. The number of courses fired will depend on the number of shooters attending and time considerations. Be prepared to shoot this course of fire multiple times.
