Some divisions allow bipods and sandbags.

I participated Tue, Wed, Thur and drove home Thur evening. They cancelled the Fri M1A Match due to snow but they shot Sat/Sun as scheduled. Wed/Thur was a high of 46, wind was 2-4mph. I dressed for it and was fine, great matches.
I need 4 EIC points for my Distinguisted Rifleman Badge. In...

Your best bet would be the 2 RiverBend M1A matches next year, all 3 positions shot from the 200yrd line and scopes are allowed.
One of my favorite matches of the year.
Check the RBGC Calendar next year: http://www.rbgc.org/index.htm
No, it's hosted on the 100yrd range, no shooting after the match because there is a cookout and awards.
You have to be a member or guest of a member to use the other ranges.
I don't think it will be allowed.
Contact the Match Director for final word, email: ben@rbgc.org
There are plenty of rifles that can be borrowed. The match director and myself have loaners.
I'll let you shoot my National Match AR15 and I'll sell you some match grade ammo.
So for $15 match fees...

Mid_range match is shot in Prone only, slow fire(25 minutes for unlimited sighters and 20 for record), 600yrds using the NRA MR1 Target which is a 72 inch circle.
Yes you can hit the target once you get the scope set, but as you perfect your shooting skill (i.e. breathing and trigger control)...
Nothing to prevent you as long as the scope is max max 4.5x.
For the NRA MidRange matches there is a Tactical AR Class with bipods and scopes up to 12x.
Here's the RuleBook: http://rulebooks.nra.org/documents/pdf/compete/RuleBooks/HPR/hpr-book.pdf
The word on the street is the military teams did not drive this change.
The world of pure marksmanship is dying a slow death, lack of new participates.
Young people want the excitement of run&gun video game like competitions.
The NRA/CMP added the A4 configuration with optic to lure more...
There are good vids on Youtube about each position. Just search NRA High Power.
