How A Match Is Run

Rimfire challenge consist of 5-7 static steel plates per stage with 1 plate as a designated stop plate. Some stages may have a designated bonus plate that when hit will reduce your overall time when hit before the stop plate. You will shoot stages with a rifle or a handgun pending the stage description, and you will need both a rifle and pistol in 22 long rifle to compete. The goal of rimfire challenge is to provide a safe and fun atmosphere for newer shooters to compete without having to move or reload while on the clock. Each stage will be shot 5 times with the competitors best 4 times totaled for the score on that stage. Safety is the top priority for the rimfire challenge matches as we expect many new and younger shooters so please be mindful of your language as well.
