I know over the past couple years most matches have been putting restrictions of caliber and or velocity in place to protect the targets. Which is more common to see in place, particularly in the UT, AZ, NV reigon, a speed limit of I'm assuming 3000 fps, or a caliber restriction of no larger than .300 WM? How common is a restriction of no magnums at all? I know my most used rifle wouldn't be allowed at most shoots simply based on speed (22-250 with a 77gr at 3300). Didn't hurt AR500 at 400 and 800, but at the longer distance hits that were centered up sure didn't move the plate much.

3,200 fps is pretty common.

most large matches use the 6mm to 30 cal rule with a 3100fps limit. 22 calibers are not allowed mostly because its too hard to spot impacts on steel past 700 yards unless you're the 1st shooter on the stage.
Ours are 3100fps, and 300 Win mag.
We don't put steel inside 300Y.
