OBRAMS PRECISION TACTICAL RIMFIRE MATCH BULLETIN May 16, 2015 8:30AM to 2:00 PM We are introducing a new type of match to our lineup; a “Precision Tactical “ Rimfire Rifle match. What does “Tactical Precision” mean? Well, you will be faced with “Precision” shooting challenges similar to those encountered by “Tactical” marksman (such as Law Enforcement and Military snipers). The goal is to provide a precision/tactical match experience and training/practice that can be done at low cost, easy for beginners to get into, and are fun and low key. At a time when many shooters are worried about gas prices and ammo costs, the rimfire precision tactical match offers a "high fun factor" experience that won't bust your budget. The match consists of six “stages”, all shot from a specified position (for this match it is prone, on the ground) at 100 yards. Various targets with different layouts will be used. There will be time restrictions on each stage, but not so restrictive that you cannot get good, well aimed shots off. Any functioning safe rifle of a small-bore rimfire chambering is allowed. This includes, but is not limited too, .22 Long Rifle, .22 Magnum, .17 HMR, etc. Any “field-type” supporting device(s) are allowed. An example of an allowed device would be a bipod, sandbag, or rucksack. A disallowed device would be a “Lead-Slead” or shooting vise. Any sight type and combination is allowed. DIVISIONS: .22LR (no magnums) Any Rimfire other than .22LR (includes magnums) CATEGORIES: within each division there will be these categories - Open – Optical sights Iron-Tactical – Iron sights MATCH RULES: All shots are to be fired from the position specified for that specific match, unless the competitor cannot physically shoot from the required position. In such a situation, accommodations will be made. Any “field-type” supporting device(s) are allowed. An example of an allowed device would be a bipod, sandbag, or rucksack. Any shooting style is allowed, provided it conforms with division rules. Any sight type and combination is allowed. RIFLE RULES: Any rifle of a small-bore rimfire chambering (bolt action, semi auto, single shot, lever, and pump actions) is allowed. This includes, but is not limited to: .22 Long Rifle, .22 Magnum, .17 HMR, 5mm, etc. The same gun MUST be fired throughout the course unless verified as having a mechanical or optical failure by the Match Director. EQUIPMENT: As targets will be challenging in size, quality optics are recommended (minimum 10X). Bipods or packs are allowed. No mechanical front rests. No rear bag, monopod, or rear rest of any kind. Shooting mats, elbow pads, etc are allowed. The Match Director will have the final decision on the legality of equipment. SAFETY: • Required use of open chamber indicators/flags at all times except after the load command has been given. • ALL bolts and actions must remain open at all times except when “on stage”. • Failure to display open actions and Open Chamber Indicator will result in 1 warning, followed by a match disqualification. • Eye and hearing protection must be worn by competitors, spotters, and bystanders.
