MATCH PURPOSE
The Steel Safari is a non-standard contest that examines practical rifle skills, including target
recognition, range estimation, wind doping, trail skills, and marksmanship.
It
is designed to test a
competitor's skills shooting rifle in practical "hunting-type" challenges
in the natural terrain using what gear he can carry.
Shooters should expect:
Rifle: Any 243/6mm up to 300 Winchester Magnum. 3200fps limit.
Shooters can use any ancillary equipment as long as such equipment is carried during every stage. (See Rules for details.)
Shooters should expect:
- two day-long field stages each involving movement through approximately 3 miles of rugged desert terrain;
each field stage will have approximately 10 shooting stations;
each shooting station will have 6 target opportunities - to locate, range, and engage targets at each station under a time limit
- movement between stations during each field state will not be timed;
however, shooters are encouraged to move briskly to avoid procedural penalties if passed - local altitude of 4000'
- to carry gear used during the courses of fire
- to engage rifle targets from 200 to 700 yards (few engagements outside this range may be required)
- Standard targets sizes are 6"x12" or 12"x12", but some vary.
- fantastic geographic features for a hike-and-shoot match
- an optional long-range side match with an emphasis on KYL ("know your limitations") and speed, for prizes
Rifle: Any 243/6mm up to 300 Winchester Magnum. 3200fps limit.
Shooters can use any ancillary equipment as long as such equipment is carried during every stage. (See Rules for details.)
