Military Rifle Match | ||
![]() |
Saturday Afternoon, January 7th at the
Match will start around 1:00 PM Bring your favorite military rifle, or a civilian version of a military rifle, in any martial caliber. No rimfires.
The first part of the shoot will be the Swiss “Obligatorisches
Schiessprogramm”, the annual rifle qualification that must be passed
by all Swiss riflemen. A Swiss battle rifle is not required – any iron
sighted military rifle will do. We will be shooting at 100 yards rather
than the standard 300 meters with reduced size targets. You will be allowed 5
sighter shots, then you will fire 20 shots for record. The second stage will be a CMP Games John C. Garand Match, Course “A”. This is the same course of fire that is also used for the CMP Springfield Match, and the CMP Vintage Military Rifle Match. Any military type rifle will be allowed. Per CMP rules, scopes of up to 4.5X will be allowed. Such shooters will be classed separately in an Unlimited Modern Military Rifle class. This stage will be fired at 100 yards using the SR-1 target and consists of five sighter shots and 30 record shots. We will try to adhere as closely as possible to the official CMP rules.
