NRA High Power Rifle Competition Description

[chkunz]

I am looking for a write up that describes NRA High Power Rifle Competition. I have seen this type of write up from time to time but do not have a good one in my files. I prefer using something that already exists rather than writing my own. If you have something or have a link to something like this please let me know. I have looked at what the NRA has on its web site and it is not bad but I have seen better. I am also looking for something that describes the popularity of this shooting discipline in terms of numbers of competitors/events each year nation wide. I have been told that this is or was the largest of our shooting sports but I do not have any references to know if this is factual. Thanks for your help, Clyde.

I don't know if this is what you are looking for, but a MN shooter that I know put this together a while back:

It's a pretty decent 2-page summary of what the sport consists of.

Good luck,
Erik

Erud, Thanks so much. This is very helpful especially the pictures. I will see what other positive response I get and may wind up taking all inputs plus the NRA write up and developing my own write up. Conventional High Power competition is very healthy in Tennessee and I have been helping with some beginner development activities that are bringing a lot of new folks into the sport including a lot of juniors. It would be helpful when we recruit new competitors into the sport to have a short write up that describes the sport so folks will understand what it is all about. Thanks again for your thoughtful response. Clyde.

Glad to help, Clyde. Best of luck with your endeavor.

Thanks, that is a great idea. However, when I tried to log on to that forum I am told that my email address is already in use. So I checked the "forgot password" box and they said they would send me instructions to get logged on but they never did. I tried this more than once. I am not sure how to proceed with gaining access to that forum.

Do you have another email address that you can use to logon? I am surprised that you did not get a reply; do you have a spam/junk mail filter turned on?

Good idea but I only have the one email address. I do not remember ever trying to log on to that website before but it is possible that I did and do not remember. This seems very strange because I had a similar issue when I first tried to log onto Accurate Shooter a few months ago. Also, I am not aware of a spam filter on my email, I am using my Microsoft Outlook as it was set up by a friend and I will ask him if that was an option when he set it up. My internet provider is AT&T and it is possible that they have some kind of filter. Anyway, thanks for your help.
