All about the pits

posted in: Shooting 0

Lots of people don’t understand how targets are scored in NRA/CMP High Power Rifle competitions at full course ranges where you shoot at 200, 300, and 500/600 yards (and 800, 900, 1000 yards for Long Range events). People unfamiliar with shooting often ask how you know where on target your shot went.

There is an excellent video posted on Youtube recorded during the 2009 National Matches at Camp Perry during the Long Range Championship segment. I have embedded it here for your viewing, or you can go directly to the youtube link to view it for yourself.
