HIGH-POWER RIFLE MATCH
High Power Rifle Matches are held the 2nd Saturday of each month.
Match starts at 8:00am.
The Hi-Power Rifle Match has two separate courses of fire:
- a 100-yard, 4-position match course and
- a 100-yard, prone course.
The 4-position match has prone, sitting, kneeling and offhand stages of fire. The prone course can use a front-end rest (i.e., bipod) and the shoulder for a stock rest.
Each match course consists of firing forty (40) rounds for score plus unlimited sighter rounds. Competitors may elect to participate in either or both matches.
Entry fees: $5.00 per competitor per match. Juniors under age 16 shoot free.
Any legal center-fire, cartridge-firing rifle, regardless of caliber or action, is acceptable. Competitors may use open (iron) sights or rifle scopes. Slings are allowed except in the offhand position. No artificial supports are allowed in the 4-position course. Hearing and eye protection are required.
The intent of the matches is to improve your skills and have fun while doing it.

Scoring is done after every 10 shots. We start with the 22 pistol and shoot 30 rounds at 50 yards slow fire. Then we move the targets to the 25 yard line, and shoot 60 rounds of timed and rapid fire. Then we move the targets back to the 50 yard line, and repeat the same course of fire with the center-fire pistol. You do not have to shoot both guns. If you only have one appropriate gun, come and shoot half the match. This match is sanctioned by the NRA.
