This is a great match, beginners are welcome. Knock the dust off your M1A and come shoot the match.
You get unlimited sighters and 20 shots for record in 25 minutes, prone, 200yrds. The Targets are big.
You'll need 60-65 rounds. You can squad with a regular and barrow things like a shooting mat.
 
My first match I wore a motorcycle leather jacket and a leather gardening glove.
You do need a sling on your rifle. Web sling or a 1907 sling.

Thanks for posting those video's Greg. Very good info and well done.

I try to keep this match Fun & Easy. Unlimited sighters and liberal time limits in rapids allow folks to concentrate on form & position.

For any new shooters interested, this is a good intro to High Power (HP) in general and the big range at RBGC. I always keep a sling and a couple of mags in my cart, and the experienced shooters will share shooting mats and scopes. If you have a rifle & ammo and want to shoot this match, we will be glad to help out.

come on out, You'll have a BLAST :thumb:
