Mifflin County Sportsmen Association
Blackjack Challenge Rules
GENERAL INFORMATION
MCSA is going to run a modified Black Jack Challenge. Registration will start at 7:15 and run till 8:00 with a start time around 8:30. We need to keep to a strict time for registration, so we have time to get set up in the scoring shed. Cost will be $25 per gun. No guns larger than .308 cal. and no magnums. Range Master has the right to disqualify any rifle for destruction of targets. You may only register ONE rifle. You may bring a second rifle as backup, but you can only register to shoot one rifle. You may shoot your rifle either from the bench (which most of us do) or if you choose you may shoot prone between the benches.
Course of fire will be 12 rounds in 2 minutes at plates hanging in descending order from 12” – 2”. You have to hit the bigger plate to move on to the smaller plate. If you hit all the plates, you will receive a blackjack of 21 points. Then you may continue if you have remaining rounds left to shoot the 2” plate, each hit on the 2” plate will give you additional 21 points.
We are going to shoot a combined score and time over 4 targets at 500yds. Each time you come to the line you will shoot 2 targets. Each target consist of 12 shots plus 1 sighter round shot in 2 min. 30 sec. You will need 48 rounds for score and 4 sighters if you chose to shoot them. At the end who ever has the highest score wins if there is a tie in score the winner will be decided with the quickest time. There will be 4 shooters on the line at a time. When those 4 shooters are done we will go out and paint targets. DON’T BE AFRAID TO HELP PAINT TARGETS! We will also need people to help spot for hits and keep score. This is just a quick summary to give an idea of what we are going to do. Remember its the first time so we can make changes as we see fit to make it go smoother. For this first match we are only going to allow one rifle per shooter till we see how its going to work out. 30 cal. or less and no magnums. (all PRC’s are considered magnums) Price will be $25, payout will be 60% club gets 40%. Payout will be done using the Lewis Scoring System.
