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

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.

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?

I think the plan is to allow both if you want, but pay the same fee for each.

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

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.

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.

If you are going to help as staff/RO/scorekeepers, do not pre-register on Practiscore. Send in the hardcopy form. Practiscore pre-registration will only accept 1 price. Staff will shoot for $50 and will shoot the match the Sunday before the main match.

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.
