Classifications

This competition is a registered event and scores will be submitted to the NRA. The Gallery Rifle Ranking Tables will include the TP1, MT and 1500 event.

Competitors entering both Standard and Classic matches must indicate to the match director prior to the start of the match which score (standard or classic) they require to be carried forward for their aggregate score. No differential will be made between Iron and Optic (Open class) LBR or LBP. Centrefire may include any pistol calibre lever action rifle. Lever release rifles are not included due to predicted low entrance, we will look at that again next year.

Prizegiving

There will be a prizegiving ceremony held during the Gallery Rifle Nationals held at Bisley, venue to be agreed.
