Sporter rifles must have repeater action, scope magnification is limited, and the front rest must be a bipod or simple bag. Sporter class will shoot a spec ammunition provided at the event. Target Class matches are at 50 and 100 yards, and Sporter Class matches at 50, 100, and 150 yards. The entry fee is $3 for Target Class and $15 for Sporter Class (which includes the ammunition).
