‘'Winter War / Winter Operations Shoot'’ Shooting Match
Date: January 27, 2013
Location: Albuquerque Shooting Range Park
50 – 500 Meter / 300 – 1,000 Yard Range
Ranges / Positions at which the Match is to be shot at:
200, 300, 385 and 500 Meters: Shooters Discretion
Note:
The positions the shooter wishes to shoot at will be left to their discretion which can include the following: prone supported or un-supported, kneeling, sitting or offhand, table or bench rest type shooting shall not be permitted.
For those who want to shoot prone supported, sand bags stacked up to two or three high and / or a three point front rest can be used upon which the forearm of the firearm can be laid upon. No back rest or bags are allowed to be used to support the buttstock at any firing position. Shooters may use a slip-on type recoil pad on the buttstock or the shoulder for those who are sensitive to recoil.
Targets to be Used:
The targets at both 200 and 300 meters will be 29” wide round, ½” steel plate which will simulate the NRA High Power SR – Military “Target, Rifle, Competition, Short Range” minus the 5 Ring.
The targets at both 385 and 500 meters will be 45” long by 29” wide, ½” steel plate which will simulate the NRA High Power MR-1 Target “Target, Rifle, Competition, Mid-Range” minus the 5 Ring.
Note:
All targets will be painted solid black with a white 10” circle in the center of the target which be used as a reference as to where the hits on the target accrued.
Scoring / Rounds per Course of Fire:
10 rounds will be fired at every stage (200, 300, 385 and 500 meters) during the course of fire, No sighting-in rounds will allowed to be fired, you will be expected to know exactly where your firearm will shoot at those distances.
A direct hit on the target will be scored as one point; a miss will be scored as a zero.
All hits or misses will be confirmed by the use of a spotter.
Note:
We will be breaking down into shooting groups to fire at the different shooting firing line positions (200, 300, 385 and 500). Each position will have shooting mats or blankets, sand bags or front rests and spotting scopes as needed to shoot that relay. Each person in the group they are with will fire all its rounds at that target with everyone shooting, spotting and scoring for one another, once they complete that particular relay they will move down to the next lower distance firing line position to shoot the next relay of the match. * If you happen to be on the 200 meter position as the first relay then you will move to 500 meter firing line to fire your next relay.
This match usually goes pretty fast so if you want to go through the course of fire twice, please be sure to bring enough ammunition to do so or bring two firearms with enough ammunition for each weapon.
Firearms to be Used:
The firearms that can be used in this match must be all unmodified, originally as-issued configured service military rifles that were or still are being issued in the world’s standing armies that were issued to the ‘ordinary soldier’ that used them.
The sights on the firearms must be as-issued ‘iron sights’ that were standard to the firearms being used which does not include NRA/DCM/CMP National Match, European Shooting Match, aftermarket, target type, match adjustable or micrometer sights as these were not issued to the ordinary soldier.

Please remember our club mission is the shooting of firearms that the ordinary soldier would have been issued.

Re: UP-COMING 2013 NM MILSURPS SHOOTS ...
I am currently planning a trip to Raton NM for summer 2014 to shoot the 50cal world's champs
Will combine it with a bit of a family holiday too. Looks like there maybe a small group of us making the trip so far.
Unless things change drastically, I plan on taking my own 50cal with me.
