MRSB - Small Bore

---

Positions consist of prone, sitting, kneeling and standing. Slings are used with all positions with the exception of standing. 

Rifles used are heavy barreled match rifles typically with high powered scopes although iron sights are allowable. 

Targets are shot at a distance of 50 feet. There are 10 shots each for record in each of the 4 positions. Each bull is scored individually at 10 points per bull with a total possible score of 100 points in each position and a total possible match score of 400 points. Match scores typically range from 300 points +/- for beginners up to a high of 395. Individual scores are combined for a team score. 

Smallbore teams consist of two Great Falls teams (Missouri River and Great Falls), a Fairfield team, Cascade team and Castner Falls team. Matches are shot between two teams at alternating team ranges so some travel is necessary. 

Regardless of initial ability all shooters will improve with time and practice. You will learn position, trigger control and breathing techniques to improve all disciplines of shooting.
