The NRA Conventional Pistol 50 FT Indoor Competition consists of firing slow, timed, and rapid fire. The match consists of 20 shots, slow fire at 50 feet (two 10-shot strings, 10 minutes per string), 20 shots, timed fire at 50 feet (four 5-shot strings, 20 seconds per string), 20 shots, rapid fire at 50 feet (four 5-shot strings, 10 seconds per string). The NRA Classification System The NRA Classification System was devised to help maintain interest among shooters, by breaking down the shooters into groups of approximately equal skill.Tournament sponsors may award prizes within each group. This is simply a form of handicapping and has an advantage over a score handicap system because it permits the use of scores actually fired. The Classification System is used solely in formal competitions. The Qualification System, on the other hand, provides a program for individual training and achievement. The Classification System is used by the NRA Competitive Shooting Division; the Qualification System is used by the NRA Education & Training Division.
In contrast to a formal "classification" which can only be earned in NRA sanctioned competition, qualification ratings can be earned by participating in the NRA Marksmanship Qualification Program. Copyright 2008 Michael Lucas | | |
