Good questions, jth. I'll try to answer them in quick order:
All sights & set-ups welcome - scores will be grouped into division so you can compare yourself with other "tactical" shooters rather than a heavy-barreled massive scoped varmit AR. The divisions are Rifle (Tactical or Target) and Sights (Scoped, Iron, Low-power EO-Tech type sights
Would we have time/space to shoot two rifles? Looking at this makes me want to try two different ones, in two different divisions...

Equipment is minimal - you'll want a spotting scope and a prone mat. Last year we had great volunteers who helped with spotting and zeroing. No heavy NRA/ISSF canvas or leather shooting jackets or padded gloves.
Benchrest is just that - like you're sighting in for deer season with sandbags or off a bi-pod.
Prone Supported is the same equipment as Bench, just from your belly
Prone Unsupported is on your belly without any slings or bags or pods (the secret is to bring your 30-round magazine and prop up your rifle with it - that is the military "unsupported")
Ah. Just what I needed to know. Thank you!
Sorry about not running in this event. Feel free to sprint down to the targets to score them - I'll follow in the golf cart.
If I have to jog to the targets to reset each, we are in for a long day.

I think it is really cool that we have all
different types of shooting competitions available---that way everyone has something they can try. Competitions (including basic fun shoot events) are a great way to try something new, get a new challenge, and hang around with people who love shooting just like you do.
Thanks for running this, and getting more types of shooting out there for people to try!
Our hope of this event is to get people out shooting and then hope they feed into any of the sanctioned leagues from Action Shooting to CMP/NRA 3-Position. I'm also happy if we get some shooters who just want to sight in their AR for a prairie dog hunt.
Hope you can make it!
I can't make the ones on April 19th, June 14th, or August 30th --matches in other places during those weekends--but I'm hoping to make May 24th and July 25th.
Ug. I don't get to start with a match maxing out at 100 yards. Well, everyone can watch me miss a lot. Won't be the first time!
