COASTAL CAROLINA RIFLE CLUB

The Coastal Carolina Rifle Club is pleased to announce the High Power Rifle Matches for 2012.  These matches will be fired at the USMC Rifle Range at Stone Bay, NC.  Entries in individual matches will be limited to 200 competitors.  Squadding begins a 0700 on the day of the match.  Firing will begin at 0800. 

The match will be fired in the order listed in the program unless changed by the Match Director.  Relay 1 and 2 will fire first; 3 and 4 will report to the pits.  NRA High Power rules will govern conduct of the matches.  Competitors will score and pull targets.  Competitors may bring their own puller or hire one.  There may be some Marines at the matches for hire as target pullers.

These dates are subject to change.  The Marines are using these ranges to the maximum due to the war.  We have made every effort to schedule around their training and hopefully will not have to postpone or change these dates.   Please feel free to call or email to confirm matches.
