RANGE RULES
1 Non-magnifying Diaopters and focusing apertures MAY be used on all ranges.
This is a departure from previous rules and has been decided by OVPR club members.
The primary purpose of this is to allow our mature members to keep shooting.
2. NO Loaded Guns leave the Range, Period.
You may leave the gun at the registration entrance of the range and go back into camp for tools, if you need them.
3. 3 hammer falls is a miss, unless specified by the target description. For example, a thrown clay pigeon would be a simulated hunting shot and a single hammer fall.
4. Absolutely no non-shooting observers on the range, unless they are range assistants
No Spectators!
5. No slings will be used as a steadying aid. If your gun has a sling, it swings in the breeze.
6. No Amber or other color shooting glasses. Photogrey lenses on prescription glasses are permitted.
7. No sharing of guns. Only one person uses any one gun at any time on any range. Two people using the same gun causes the shooting to slow and creates bottlenecks
8. All competitors, 14 years and under will be considered as “Junior” shooter and all 15 years and older will be considered “Adult” shooters. Both will be eligible to compete in Grand Aggregate events.
