Sniper’s Hide Cup International Civilian Competitors

[AussieShooter]

Is the cup open to international civilians or just US competitors?

If its not open currently are there plans for the future?

We had a guy from Germany shoot it last year.

But did he have dual citizenship or on a temporary visa?

I'm also wondering if I wanted to compete in 2014 the logistics behind such an exercise.

Bringing rifle (storage) , custom ammo ( or if I have to reload there) etc.

 

[Graham]

He was on a visa. He brought his own rifle.

Over the years we have had many international competitors shoot the match.

UK, Germany, Australia, South America.

We provide a letter inviting you to the match which you use to show the State Department. That allows you to bring your stuff. It requires a pretty good lead in like 6 months, but there never been a problem.

 

[AussieShooter]

Ok.

I'll start saving for next years

 

[Dude in GP]

I'm from Canada, shooting it right now. Fill out ATF form 6 NIA, buy a hunting license(state not important), get the invite, and go.

Bringing rifle (storage) , custom ammo ( or if I have to reload there) etc.

Outside of Massachusetts, we don't have the retarded firearm storage laws that most of the world seems to have. As for the ammo, maybe ship your reloads to one of the match organizers?

recently I've sended money to a Pennsylvania SH member to buy a used wooden lefty hunting (!) stock, and I've asked him FIRST if it could be done_ (stocks are unrestricted items in Italy,of course)_ this guy has later reported that the shipping from PA to Italy has been stopped, and the stock seized, by U.S. Custom_ If that's true, please, will pay real attention about REAL issues BEFORE any shipping _ good luck,anyway!

ITAR items being exported require an export permit. He is talking about importing ammunition for sporting purposes without him being present.

Or work up your load, write it down and find somebody here who will help you load a batch when you get here...

We would be happy to have more international competitors. As others have stated, do your homework and prepare early.
