We’re excited to welcome you to another PRS Rimfire match hosted by the BC Precision Rifle League (BCPRL). Please take a moment to read through this information to ensure you're prepared for a great day on the range.

Match Overview:
This is a one-day precision rimfire match following the PRS style format, with a focus on practical field skills. Expect to shoot in natural terrain using improvised positions, and to build those positions on the clock. The course will be both physically and mentally demanding, with a fair but challenging design. Targets will be Prairie Precision Steel and D-M Targets. Many stages will include a stress element such as time pressure or small target sizes. Barricades and uneven terrain will be part of the challenge, so come prepared.

Target distances will range from 10 yards to 450 yards, with many engagements between 50 and 150 yards.

Caliber:
22LR only
Round count: Approximately 100 rounds if all shots are taken. Bring extra for zeroing, reshoots, and post-match shooting.

You will need to carry your gear all day, covering approximately 2 km over the course of the event. Plan accordingly. If you require special accommodations, please reach out in advance.

Weather:
