The briefing should conclude around 8:45, so that individual preparations may be completed before the 8:55 call to the firing line. Participants will then proceed downrange, with relay #1 in position on the 7 yard line so that shooting may commence at around 9 am.
Shooters will be organized into two relays, with relay #1 firing the prescribed shots at the 7 yard line. Rifles will be unloaded, confirmed clear and slung; Targets scored and repaired; and then relay #2 will move into position and repeat the process. This system will repeat at the 15, 30, 60 and 100 yard lines.
Dropped magazines, live cartridges or other gear may be picked up upon completion of each string of fire, after rifles are safed, cleared, and slung. When picking up dropped items, safe muzzle direction must be maintained!
No fired brass may be retrieved until the match has been completed and rifles have been safely racked or cased.
All participants will pick up fired brass, assist in removing target frames and barricades to their storage locations, and returning the range to its standard configuration.
