Subject: December High Power Rifle "Fun Match" - Saturday 12/18

Greetings;

The next monthly High Power Rifle Fun Match is scheduled for Saturday, December 18 at Fairfax Rod and Gun Club. The match bulletin is attached.

Be advised that beginning with this match and forever after we will be using scoring system B - see below and the attachment for an example of scoring system B.

We experienced some issues at our last match with very slow pit service. Slow pit service will often break the concentration of the competitor on the firing line as well as delaying the match. If you are a new shooter and have never worked in the pits or if you have worked in the pits and you feel that you would benefit from some instruction and guidance, please arrive at the range by 0800 for a brief pit duty orientation.

Match registration begins at 8:15, squadding at 8:30, pits seal at 8:45, first shot at 9:00. Entry fee is $10, exact change is appreciated. Bring a stapler for hanging targets.

See you on the firing line,
Alan Willard
