Puuloa Rifle and Pistol Club is hosting a Rifle Open Practice Day at the USMC Puuloa Range Training Facility.

Registration will be at 7am on Sunday 24 November in the parking lot.

Range safety brief at 0730 followed by range set up. All shooters will report to the target pit to help with set up.

The course of fire will follow the National Match Course, but may be shot in any safe position. Scoring is the the responsibility of the shooter.

Stage 1 -12 rounds in12 minutes slowfire at 200 yards
Stage 2 -2 rounds in 2 minutes slowfire at 200 yards
Stage 3 -10 rounds in 60 seconds rapidfire at 200 yards
Stage 4 -2 rounds in 2 minutes slowfire at 300 yards
Stage 5 -10 rounds in 70 seconds rapidfire at 300 yards
Stage 6 -22 rounds in 22 minutes slowfire at 600 yards

If 20 or less Shooters attend, firing will be conducted in 2 relays. Relay 1 will shoot first and relay 2 will pull and mark targets. After relay 1 completes all stages of fire, they will change places with relay 2. After relay 2 completes firing, all shooters will report to the target pit to clean up. You can bring someone to pull targets for you if you physically are not able to pull targets for another relay. The club is trying to recruit more paid target pullers.

Only rifles chambered in cartridges no greater than 7.62 mm and no greater than the ballistic equivalent of  US 30-06 are allowed. US .30 Carbine will not be fired from the 600 yard line.

Rifles with muzzle brakes will be squaded on the downwind side of the firing line

Shooters should have at least a 100 yard zero on their rifles before attempting to try shooting at Puuloa. 200 yards is where we start from. If you want closer, go to Koko Head.

Anyone exhibiting unsafe behavior will be asked to leave the facility.

Range Fee is $10 for Club Members, $15 Military/DOD personnel , $20 for Civilians

16 is the minimum age to participate.

Smoking will only be done in designated smoking areas

No alcoholic beverages allowed.

How does Pu'uloa work? I just signed up for membership. What if we don't want to do competitions or practice for one. Are there days to just do anything you want rifle or pistol?

Need more F-Class matches

3 X 600 yard Prone + F-Class would be fun and quick matches.

For actual competition, you would be forced to follow the same match program ( but don't have to pay the match fees) so the competitors are not interrupted.  For match practice or open practice days, there is usually more leeway.  You still have to time and yard line limits (ie you can't shoot at the 200 yard line while others are shooting behind you at 300 yards) but you can fire from multiple positions (standing, prone, bipod, holster, etc) and however you wish within limits.

Not that simple. There is no standing bipod from the holster prone shooting allowed.
