Course of Fire: (bring at least 55 rounds minimum)

5 shots– sighters to establish 100 yard zero, slow fire with single round load, fired from any position.

10 shots- prone position, rapid fire, in a time limit of 70 seconds.

20 shots- prone position, slow fire with single round load, in a time limit of 20 minutes.

• "Slow Fire" the shooter takes his/her position on the firing line, assumes the standing or prone position. One single round is loaded then fired, another round loaded then fired, repeat.

• "Rapid Fire" involves a reload and depends on the firearm. In rapid fire (sitting and prone), the shooter uses a preparation period to establish position; when the command to “commence firing” is given, the shooter loads either: (2 rounds into the rifle, fires 2; reloads with 8 rounds and fires 8) or (5 rounds into the rifle, fires 5, reloads 5 more rounds and fires 5) for a total of 10 rounds in that stage. Service rifle types typically 2/8; bolt action rifle typically 5/5.

• Reduced Distance Course: A High Power XTC rifle match is normally shot at full regulation distances: 200, 300 and 600 yards. All stages of this match will be shot at 100 yards.
