This is the standard practical rifle course of fire used for both postal matches and personal benchmarking.
It has roots in USPSA/IPSC scoring, though simplified with a single target to account for the fact that many people don’t always have the ability to set up multiple targets. Rather than the other courses of fire where we used fixed times and points, this one uses hit factor scoring where you add up the points and divide it by the total time taken.
This match is intended for defensive rifles and carbines. You could probably get away with a PCC, semi-auto rimfire, and maybe even a lever action- but the latter will be a distinct disadvantage in reload times.

This course of fire requires 20 shots, and takes place between from 15 to 50 yards. For a target, we use the IPSC Classic “Turtle” type silhouette.
