A competitor who fails to place his target and frame in position prior to 8:50 AM or who is not set up to fire the match at the end of the preparation time, will not fire that match. Eye and ear protection is required. If complete SR-1 card and fees are submitted before the closing date, you may request a firing point on your SR-1 card where you desire to shoot. If you have not submitted a complete SR-1 card and proper fees, you will be assigned a firing point.  The earliest entry asking for a point gets that point.

NRA AWARDS of NRA Regional Gold, Silver (15+ competitors in the grand aggregate) and bronze (25+ competitors in the grand aggregate) medallions will be awarded in the grand aggregate. Camp Perry National Championship entry credits of $50 will be awarded to the winner and first in each class (except the winner’s class) of 5 or more entries in that class (no combining classes). The top 10 California resident competitors in Match 1 will be on the NRA California State Postal Team

CLUB AWARDS will be given in each match to the match winner and all classes of 5 or more (2nd place for 10 or more, 3rd for 15, etc.). If there are not 5 in a class, those competitors will be moved upwards until there are at least 5 for a combined class, done in accordance to NRA rules. If there are not 5 in the master class, they will compete for winner awards only. If there are 5 or more juniors, there will be a separate junior award in each match. If there are 5 or more competitors who wish to fire in an any sight class, that class will get awards in each iron sight and the iron-any aggregate matches, and these competitors will fire in their own regular class in the any sight matches. They will not be eligible for overall win in any iron sight match or aggregates that include iron sight matches. This any sight class will not be combined with any other class in the iron sight matches. If there are less than 5, they will be posted separately, but with no awards. Shooting in this any sight class must be marked on the SR-1 card. If there are 3 or more juniors, women or seniors who fire the whole match with iron and any sights, there will be a grand aggregate award for that category if 3 or more are in such a category. A competitor may win only one award per match and the lesser value second award will be passed down the class or category. There will be an awards ceremony after the last challenge period has ended.
