Match fee are $10.00 for one class and $15.00 for both classes. There will be a pay out for winners. There will be two classes in the ABRA match’s:
1. Factory Class is for any semi-automatic 22lr rifle with use of any factory parts. Stock and barrel must be factory and available on commercially sold rifles. Bedding of the stock, bolt work, re-chambering, barrel re-crowning and trigger work are permitted. Must use OEM trigger housing. Barrel thickness must be less than .750 of an inch at any point. No Benchrest forearm adapters or barrel tuners are permitted.
2. Unlimited Class is comprised of any semi-automatic rifle chambered in 22 long rifle that falls outside of the rules set forth for the factory class. Unlimited class rifles have to function as a semi-automatic and fed from a magazine.
The competitor will post their own target. Course of fire is 15 minute time limit to shoot 20 bullseyes 1 shot per bullseye, with unlimited amount of sighters. There are two designated sighter bullseyes on each target. The first shot of each relay must be on a slighter bullseye to ensure that there is no cross fires, and competitors are on the right target. There will be a break in fire between target changes, at which time all rifles will be made safe with bolt locked open or out of the guns. The scorer/target crew are the only people aloud to touch the target after it has been shot until the match is complete. The competitor will post their second (or more) target/s. Bench placement will be drawn prior to match, and bench rotation will be up to the match director. (Club championship must shoot 4 targets of 20 bulls each.)
