Precision Rifle Shooting: Competition

Saturday 2nd December

For full details please read the event notes (link in the download section below)

This is the first PRS competition hosted by the NRA, and we can confirm it will not be a IPRF 2024 qualifying event. 

The Match Director and course designer is Jack Crawford (Chairman of the GBPRA). Targets will typically be 10-30cm in diameter, positioned at distances of 250-900m from the firing point. In addition to the variety of targets, there will be different 'prop' layouts on the firing point, which aim to offer diversity and challenge to each shooter. This will be a 10 stage match, with 5 layouts in both the morning and afternoon session
