As someone new to the sport in general, I know even less about CSR. What I've learned so far is:

* It uses UK legal / section 1 versions of 'military style' rifles. Most commonly AR clones, but other rifles are also involved (L98 A1 etc). Is there a fairly simple description of what's eligible?

* It involves shooting from numerous positions (standing, kneeling, prone), at various distances. How is it scored? Is it timed etc?

* What equipment (both for yourself and your rilfe) is needed? Numerous mags - certain optics etc?

How does it differ from PR?

The courses of fire for last years CSR Imperial matches are still on the NRA site CSR CoF they are the fourth one down listed as Imperial Competitions.
The CSR Winter League usually consists of two 5 or 4 stage matches taken from those CoF's with the occasional US CoF .

Thanks so where it says under service optic "Fore grips are prohibited, as are any modifications to the fore end" does that mean only 'as-issued' fore-ends are ok - i.e. no quad rails?

Quad rails are ok, but that rule is aimed at modifications that might be used as hand stop

Also, I had thought that only .223 / 5.56 rifles were eligible, but the rules mention 9mm bullets. Does that mean guns like the SGC Lever Release are used - would I be at a disadvantage with just a straight pull?

The Urban Contact Match is shot from 100yds down to 25yds and some people have used 9mm or 300 Whisper just for that match. You can use different rifles and /or optics for each match but you can't swap stuff mid match. Some of the higher scoring shooters compete with bolt actions in .308/7.62 in practical optic class.

For those of you who have never ventured to the 100yd fp on Butt 19. The month after is was muddier with a film of ice on the puddles. It all adds interest to the run downs.



Not much cammo here

Are they badger friendly?

So much so, there is already a user with the name Badger!

There is no .22 mini CSR comp - and there are CSR type competitions at Diggle and other ranges too.

Looks good. Assuming my ticket comes through I might be very interested in this.

It's great fun and certainly worth looking into.

Is there anywhere I can just ding steel plates all day long, rather than all this 'scoring' claptrap?
