Dad Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 (edited) You stated $75 per gun, so 1 shooter in open class with rifle and pistol will be $150 ?? Will there not be a reduced Junior fee ? WOW Edited June 22, 2016 by Dad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will there not be a reduced Junior fee ? WOW Good catch...that's what I get while typing before thinking. Sorry for the confusion...$75 for 1 division...while using 2 guns. Not sure about the junior fee...will talk to range owners and MD. Edited June 22, 2016 by Mark R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgreen Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I hope he meant per class. $160 for a random draw prize table seems a bit rich. All of the other Worlds have been order of finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Order of finish was good, they could always do random draw for the guns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photoracer Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 We had this discussion about the prize table with NSSF on here last year. The NSSF wanted random so more of the less skilled shooters would want to come. We talked them into keeping order of finish for last year at least. I was not betting they would keep it for this year. At the regional just last week they did the 2 separate draw method. Everything but the guns first plus awards, then a separate draw for the guns. Ended up getting early enough in the first draw to get ammo, in my case a brick of Rem 9mm while my bud Mike got up earlier for a Rem Bucket o' Bullets. Are we going to be able to enter both Open and Limited this year? Or just one division like usual? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark R Posted June 23, 2016 Author Share Posted June 23, 2016 Are we going to be able to enter both Open and Limited this year? Or just one division like usual? I think the plan is to allow both if you want, but pay the same fee for each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photoracer Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Isn't their currently or formally in the NSSF rules that if both divisions are allowed at a world championship that Open has to be shot first? It's been a couple of years since they had a WV with some shooting both Open and Limited Sent from my XT1064 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwight Stearns Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Is it random draw for the prize table or order of finish? Current rule book says order of finish for the world championships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ede Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 I won't finish well enough to worry about order of finish prizes. Vacation is approved and motel reservations made. I'll shoot a revolver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

photoracer Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Its pretty close to a number of hotels and motels. We got a reservation while driving down. Now that I have been down there for the state match I know where the good food is also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ede Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 Couple match motels would be great. I tried to use my points for a room and it was blocked. I'd guess something is going on in the area that weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

photoracer Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Since the paper entry says either Limited or Open (only 1) I guess that means we can't shoot and pay for both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark R Posted July 7, 2016 Author Share Posted July 7, 2016 Since the paper entry says either Limited or Open (only 1) I guess that means we can't shoot and pay for both? Send in two forms and cash for both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ede Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Registered for Open on line just now and mailed in Mechanical for me and Open for wife a month ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photoracer Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) Ok I checked the current NSSF rules, whether they really apply or not. If shooting 2 divisions Open must be shot first before Limited or any mechanical division. If 2 complete days Open must be shot on the first day. If shooting both divisions in the same squad (meaning across 2 days if that is the format) then the Open firearm has to be shot first. Current rules say prize table for World Championship is order of finish not random draw. Edited August 2, 2016 by photoracer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
