• If there is a point tie in the top 5 match point values then it will go to total match points. If that is a tie then it will go to total head to head total match placings.
• 1st, 2nd, and 3rd overall series point winners will get trophies.
• The top 8 shooters will go to a double elimination shoot off stage. The shooting order will be 1st vs 8th, 2nd vs 7rd, 3rd vs 6th, 4th vs 5th. The two winners from each bracket will then shoot vs each other for the 2nd round. Top winners move on from that double elimination. Those winners will shoot in the 3rd rounds for 1st and 2rd of the shoot off. The winner of the shoot off will get the shoot off trophy. The top seeded shooter can choose to shoot 1st or 2nd at the shoot off stage. If there is a tie on an elimination shoot off a single elimination shoot off stage will be shot to see who moves on. The tie shoot off will take place after all other shoots have shoot that same round.
• Prize table will be in the order of shooter match placing. In order: Shoot off winner, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and so on.

• A hit on a No Shoot target will be a 5 down/5 second penalty.
• A Procedural Penalty will be a 3 second penalty.
• No shoot through will count for a target or No Shoot target.
• Round counts will be around 100 for the handgun and 100 for the rifle.
• Matches will have 3 or more stages per match.
• Rifle must be that of the ATF definition of a rifle with a stock and can be shouldered. No “pistols” allowed.
• Shooters may use a PPC (Pistol Caliber Carbine) as their rifle 9mm or larger.
• Any barrel length (with stamp proof of SBR) is legal.
• All 3Gun “Open” modifications are allowed on rifle.
• Handgun modifications can be that of a “Limited USPSA” handgun with a slide mounted optic “Carry Optic USPSA”. No other mounted optic. No compensators/breaks on handguns. Ported slides and barrels are ok.
• Semi auto (1 trigger press and release for 1 shot fired) will be allowed. No full auto/select fire, bump fire, or reactive triggers will be allow.

• Over shoot rule. This does not include make up shots. If you shoot over 4 rounds into the same target to get a mag change or in frustration/fit of joy on the 5 shot will be a PE (3 second penalty). This cost time and extra money. Time to re paste extra holes and the cost of pastes/targets. This slows things down when we have more stages to shoot. We are here to shoot and trying to eliminate any extra waste of time.

We are having sell out matches and you would be taking other shooters spots that are willing to show up. If you are on the “waitlist” I would show up if it’s not a drive and or call to check about 10 mins before the match to see if there are spots open.
