Quick question regarding classifications- I understand that it requires a minimum of 240 rounds recorded to Reclassify- however does it also take 240 rounds to classify your first time? Or do you get classified after your first competition.
 
Re: F Class Classifications

Here you go:

19.16 Establishing Classification - A competitor will be classified when his or her scores for not less
than <span style="color: #FF0000">120 shots</span> have been reported as prescribed, except that classification will not include tournament or league
scores until after all scores for the tournament or league concerned have been reported. When his or her
classification is assigned, he or she will be furnished an official classification card showing the effective date.

So, it will take you a minimum of two matches of 60 rounds recorded for score, or three of 45 rounds to get your initial classification card.

For F-Class, the classifications are:
High Master . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 98.00 and above
Master . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 96.50 to 97.99

Long-Range and Mid-Range are the same.
 
Re: F Class Classifications

If you get rated on one level today, shoot this weekend 120 rounds in a match and better your classification, do you get a new one or is that one good for a certain length of time?

your old classification will last until your new one arrives. It all depends on how well and often you shoot.
cheers.

Re: F Class Classifications

The shooter is required to maintain a temporary scorebook. You only shoot unclassified in your very first match.


19.14 Score Record Book - (Temporary Classification)-A competitor who does not have a regular NRA High
Power Rifle classification will obtain an NRA ''Score Record Book" from the Official Referee, Supervisor, or
Tournament Statistical Office, or from the Secretary of a sanctioned league, in which he will enter all his High
Power Rifle scores fired in NRA sanctioned individual and team competition of the types defined in Rule 1.6
subparagraphs (c) through (h) inclusive. The total of all scores so recorded, divided by the number of 10-shot
strings represented, will be the competitor's average for temporary classification in accordance with Table Il below.
Scores from at least one complete tournament (Rule 1.1) or league match (Rule 1.6(h)) are required in order to
establish an initial temporary classification. The Score Record Book and any such temporary classification are
superseded when the competitor's regular classification becomes effective.

F-Class classification percentages are as follows:

Table III

less than 240 shots (120 shots for Prone Classification), fired subsequent to the tournament date at which

not include tournament or league scores until after all scores for the tournament or league competition
concerned have been recorded. If his average score so justifies, he will be reclassified upward
