So I shot an NRL-22 match today here in Colorado. A good shooter who I know, and who shall remain nameless, was tearing up the "standing offhand" stage by squatting, like he was taking a shit in the forest, resting both elbows on both knees, thereby...
Can't wait to watch! Thanks for sharing. Granby, CO is just west of me....
I always thought mounting a .50BMG to a bulldozer was, how do you say? Based......
Well I see that some of the shooters at last weekend's NCRGC NRL-22 match are at last weighing in on here. No, I don't think you're cheating. You are gaming NRL-22 management's poorly written rules. You're competitors, and that's what competitors do. Fine, I'm OK with it.
However, and I quoted...
Kinda why I started this thread, to stir up the shit and force NRL management to man up and address the issue. I am waiting....

And, I will also predict that within a month or so of...
I really don't GAF about NRL-22. Too many contrived positions, in my experience.
I started this thread because I am concerned about the lack of good sportsmanship in rifle comps, and I do GAF about that. There have been many threads here on the Hide - at least since the 2014 SH Cup cheating...
NRL-22 Rule 5.C.2 does indeed "define" the standard, but I disagree that the definition is "clear."
The rule states "Standing unsupported position must have both feet on the ground."
Then the question becomes: "Does this standard that provides sufficient clarity to competitors and MDs?" and I...
So I shot an NRL-22 match today here in Colorado. A good shooter who I know, and who shall remain nameless, was tearing up the "standing offhand" stage by squatting, like he was taking a shit in the forest, resting both elbows on both knees, thereby gaining some stability, that the...
High Velocity .22 ammo is fine, although no one has been shooting it. I could go into the reasons for this, but a good discussion was started a few years ago here:

This match is designed to be fast-paced, fun, safe, and to challenge competitors’ practical field shooting skills. Such skills include rapid target acquisition, magazine and DOPE changes during shot strings, and...
