Your dilemma is easily understood when recognizing that a fair, equitable, and predictable scoring system is desired for allowing shooters of disparate skills to compete on a more equal standing. In my view, a handicap system tends to encourage newer shooters to improve by rewarding their progress in a public and easily understood way.

Arguments are diminshed when the rules of competition are published and in possession of all participants. Potential for disputes are further reduced when the rules are exactly as a governing body like the NRA has published.

With that caveat, a simple doubling of the numbers in the chart would likely work well. The real question becomes "Which will be more complicated to manage, running the course as two 300 matches, or running the course as a 600 with the table values doubled with the understanding that you might have troubles comparing your results with those of other groups?"
