HUNTER RIFLE

The Hunter Rifle Discipline is all about competing with the rifles you use for hunting, whether it is big game, varmints, or squirrels. There are classes for each, such that those with deer rifles compete against other deer rifles, varmints against varmints, and squirrels against squirrels.

We shoot off the bench, meaning a front and rear rest may be used. All classes are shot at 100 yards, with the exception being the squirrel class, which is shot at 50 yards.

Equipment rules are as follows:

  • Deer Rifle: Minimum caliber is .243. Max scope power is 12X.
  • Varmint Rifle: Anything goes, but no custom rifles like those found in bench rest competition.
  • Factory Squirrel Rifle: Most any 22 rim fire, no scope restrictions. Included in the squirrel class would be the .17HMR, but it would be shot at 100 yards rather than 50 yards.
  • Custom Squirrel Rifle:  As above but can be customized.
