- Spare rounds may be loaded only after all 30 or 50 rounds have been fired.

not be handled until the range officer gives the command to "fire".
- All shooting must be done in the standing offhand position.
- At the range officers command of "fire" each team member may pick up their
rifles, load them and start knocking down plates.
- Time limits run from 1min. 30 sec. to 2 min. depending on the team's class
and a score of 100 points is possible if all plates are downed.
