As far as the BC Rifle Association goes, here are the requirements for each class:
Target Rifle A 308 Winchester or 223 Remington single shot bolt action rifle is required. Bulls eye style targets are used at ranges from 300 to 1000 yards. Prone position with sling. Similar to Palma shooting, this demanding class has maximum weight limitations for rifle and bullets. Iron Sights only. Certain optical accessories are allowed such as diopters, and the Eagle Eye. Shooting is done in pairs, in 5, 7, 10 or 15 shot strings. This discipline is extremely competitive, in Canada and Internationally.
Target Rifle - Optical This class allows the use of a telescopic sight with a rifle meeting the requirements of the TR class.
F Class F stands for Farquharson, Free, or Fun Class. Targets and ranges are the same as in TR, but with a more demanding scoring system. Any non-magnum single shot rifle up to 8mm. Shot in the Prone Position, but with a telescopic sight and bipod to support the rifle.. Growing in popularity day by day this discipline is extremely demanding in terms of rifle and shooter accuracy.
Precision Rifle Practical rifle shooting. Well attended by civilians and law enforcement personnel from all over the BC and Northwestern United States. Precision shooting at various targets at ranges from 300 meters. Any telescopic sight, bipod, no rear rest. Bolt actions rifles with magazines. Some calibre restrictions are applied.
Service Rifle This physically demanding discipline requires fire with movement. A semi -automatic is recommended as there is a rapid fire, deliberate and snap shooting in the standing, sitting, and kneeling positions. Certain telescopic sights are permitted. Ranges are from 100 to 500 meters and target styles vary.
Service Pistol Deliberate and rapid fire with 9mm handguns under service conditions. Ranges up to 50 meters.
Smallbore Rifle .22 calibre indoor shooting at 60 or 75 feet. The British Columbia Rifle Association sponsors a winter postal competition.
Hope this helps,

We don't need no stinking rules
Rohann has the bacis rules down pretty good. There is a ton of other rules that apply, available from the DCRA web site.
As far as Diopters and Eagle Eyes go for TR, you can use one or the other but not both at the same time.
There are also rifle weight limites and trigger weight limits in most classes.
