Precision Rifle

Precision Rifle competitions are fired in pairs, with team members working as shooter and spotter respectively. Competitors will fire from the prone position on a mix of modified and standard military targets at ranges between 200m and 900m. Successful teams will need to have excellent wind reading and communication.

​

Typical matches will include deliberate stages, as well as snap shooting and moving targets. Most competitors, including police and military snipers, will utilize highly accurate magazine-fed bolt action rifles and higher magnification riflescopes.

​

The DCRA offers divisions for Open (any legal caliber), and Classic ( 5.56/.223, .308, or .303), as well as a division for uniformed CAF/RCMP members using issued equipment.
