For High Power matches there are three weeks at Perry. The first week is CMP, the the matches you can shoot your M1A would be the Presidents (a thirty shot match, The EIC (50 shot Leg match), and various team matches, no sighters for these matches. The other matches for CMP week require a Garand or Springfield. These are very inexpensive matches.
The second week would be NRA week, and you can shoot your M1A for all these matches, these are three 80 shot regional type (20 at 200yds offhand, 20 at 200yrd standing to sitting rapid, 20 at 300yds standing to prone rapid, and 20 at 600yds slow prone) two shot sighters allowed in each position.
The third week is long range, 600yd midrange, then 800, 900, and 1000 yrd Palma, 1000 yrd Winbleton, etc.
The Presidents will be July 31, the EIC August 1. The NRA High Power championship is August 7-10. The Long Range is August 11-14. Here is the tentative schedulehttp://www.civilianmarksmanshipprogr...nalMatches.htm
You can register online at the CMP website for the CMP matches, and at the NRA website for the Nationals.
You can stay in the fairly new barracks for $11 a night, or get a hut for $44 which has four beds.
If you are going to shoot CMP week, borrow a Garand and Springfield so you can shoot everyday. If you shoot NRA Nationals weeks, you can shoot your M1A everyday for about a week and a half.
