RBGC NRA 2-Day Mid-Range Match October 8th & 9th http://www.rbgc.org/calendar/2016/201610Oct.html


Loads of fun, install a 4.5lb match trigger, add scope and bipod and you're in.

from article:
Conceptually, this new NRA Mid-Range (Prone) Tactical Rifle (AR) program is designed to provide civilian, military, and police shooters with an opportunity to shoot NRA Mid-Range Prone competition along side of other Mid-Range Prone shooters in matches using semi-automatic rifles built on an “AR Platform” and equipment generally thought of as being “tactical” in design and use. These rifles will be configured so as to replicate as closely as possible the tactical rifles (semi-automatic) and equipment used by the United States Military and America’s Law Enforcement Community in “mid-range” tactical applications. These semi-automatic rifles will be more “off the rack” or “stock” than “competition” in nature. They will be more of a “tactical design” than “match design” and therefore less expensive than the vast majority of mid-range prone rifles currently in use.
These rifles are of the “AR-Platform” variety, semi-automatic, chambered in any caliber from .223 cal./5.56mm. up to and including .308 cal./7.62mm. The courses of fire will be the same courses of fire currently used for other NRA Mid-Range (Prone) High Power Competition (300, 500 & 600 yards) and are designed to be fired concurrently with other forms of Mid-Range competition. The targets will be the same targets that are used for Service Rifle, Match Rifle and Palma Rifle Mid-Range Prone competition. Mid-range telescopic sights will be allowed, but not required. Because this is prone competition, shooters may use tactical front rests such as Harris-type bipods and limited rear rests of the type one might find used in military or police tactical situations.
 
These are the ones I was able to shoot this year:
RBGC - M1A/M14 200yrd match - March
RBGC - Rifleman's Weekend - May
I had a great time and the events were well run and the folks on the line and in the pits very friendly, helpful and often funny (stories/jokes).

I'll definitely be back for the same two this year.
