Safety and Conduct:

• Basic firearm safety will be observed at all times.
• Do not point your firearm at another human being and keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are aligned on designated targets.
• Rifles and pistols will only be loaded under the supervision of a Range Safety Officer (RSO).
• Loaded pistols must remain in a secure holster until shooting a stage under the supervision of a RSO.
• If you are found to be breaking these rules you will be disqualified and escorted off the premises.

Course Details:

• The run route will take you over varying terrain, maybe through water, and/or over/under obstacles.
• Do not stray from the marked trail or it may take you into the live fire impact area.
• When you approach a shooting stage, you will first show the RSO an empty mag well and empty chamber on your rifle.
• If another shooter is currently on the stage when you arrive, the RSO will tell you to start your stopwatch to keep track of your wait time.
• It is your responsibility to properly time your wait time.
• The cumulative wait time, if any, will be subtracted from your overall run time.
• When the shooter in front of you has cleared the stage, the RSO will record the wait time that you have on your watch.
• After explaining the stage to you, the RSO will give you commands to load and begin firing.
• Every shooting stage will have a time limit/par time plus points down.
• If the RSO tells you to cease fire you will unload and show clear pistol/rifle.
• The RSO will tell you your time and record your time on the score card.
• Do not run with the bolt open on your empty rifle!

• At the end of the race your run and shoot scores will be calculated.
• There will be a random draw of prizes from sponsors that will be awarded.
• Scores for the event will be posted 4-5 days after the event.

• There will be medical personnel at the event in case of emergencies but be aware of over exertion.
