The competition is an air rifle PRS competition, comprised of 8 stages, being scored on hits within a given time allowance per stage. The event will combine PRS with a sporting clay shoot's familiar and relaxed feel.
The objective is for it to be relaxed and fun with a competition element. AGT air rifles will be available at each stage for those without air rifles; however, it is recommended that you bring your own air rifle and equipment. Closer to the event, information will be provided to shooters explaining exactly what they need to bring. All air rifles are to be sub 12 ft/lb energy with the selected pellet/slug used, and down to the end user not to exceed that.
Every single air rifle is to be choreographed and "checked in" during a relaxed and open zeroing session at the beginning of the day (coloured zip tie to designate a pass).
Held at West Midland Shooting ground, Market Drayton, TF9 3LH ,the stages will consist of a varying number of targets, an exciting variety of props, and dynamic positions to shoot from. All targets will have flashers on to help with hit indications. The shooter starts on beep, bolts back, muzzles up, and moves forward to engage a set sequence of steel targets as per the course of fire. Most stages are 2 minutes long; however, a few may be shorter.
They generally consist of 8-12 shots per stage. Times are recorded via a shot timer, and scores are logged via practice/ultimate ballistics. There is one timed attempt at each stage, and squads move around together in a guided group. Squads will be between 6 and 12 shooters, depending on entries. Each stage will have a dedicated range officer to help explain all the details, and spotters will be provided on each stage as well. The highest hits completed across the eight stages will win the competition.
On the day, shooters who wish to be coached and helped during stages will be able to select "training/targets only." Shooters entering this will have a pass to show at stages, and their score will not count towards the competition.
