ELECTRONIC TARGETS…

 s

ELECTRONIC TARGETS:  All our matches are shot on Silver Mountain Targets.

- EVERY shooter must have THEIR OWN computing device that is capable of WiFi and has an internet browser – such as a laptop, smartphone or tablet, etc.

- Suggestion is to have the largest screen possible to get the full experience on offer from the ET’s.

- Ensure the device is bright enough for screen to be seen outside in daylight (test in advance).

- Every person MUST have a way to charge their device during the day while at the range - Inverter, Cig lighter adaptor, etc.  If your device goes flat, then you can’t shoot.  There are no spare devices available at the range.  All shooters must be self-sufficient.

Matches will be shot in the below scheduled order where possible.  The schedule may change in case of wash out of matches due to unavoidable circumstances that prevent matches being completed.  Priority is to complete at least 2x IMC 40s.

Those shooters who shoot one rifle spec only will only have the first registered IMC result count in that given rifle spec.  All subsequent results will roll forward into the next rifle spec.  No matter how many times a specific rifle is shot, all results will stay in that specific rifle spec, as used, and will count towards the GP and AR programs.

Shooters contesting multiple rifle specs for the IMC, they may shoot the rifle specs to a match or day in any order.  However, if using the same rifle across multiple specs (forwards compatible), the lowest spec counts as first result, and subsequent results count towards the higher specs.

CHAMPIONSHIP IMC TITLES are based on 40 shot match totals, which equals 2x 40 shot IMC GP scores.

THURSDAY      Range may be open for practice.  email a few days before event to check.
