Fullbore Target Rifle
We shoot Target Rifle (TR) using iron sights, sling, etc. in 0.308 and 0.223 calibre in A, B and C grade.
For Fullbore (open sights), all shooting is done in single-shot mode, i.e., without magazines. The use of rifle magazines is prohibited on the range.
Our Fullbore practice routine requires two stages to be fired, with each stage consisting of 2 sighters + 10 scoring shots. This allows for a maximum possible score of 100.
We shoot under the auspices of the Metropolitan District Rifle Association.
MDRA Grade Competitions
Grade shoots typically take place every 5 to 6 weeks and the scores are aggregated through the shooting year.
Fullbore MDRA Grade Competition format: 2 sighters + 14 scoring shots for a maximum possible score of 70.
