Service Rifle Questions

In reference to the linked videos in the EESA thread, there were practices that would be unacceptable while hunting, as well as on a range.
 
For an example of a comprehensive rulebook detailing all aspects of service pistol, precision rifle and service rifle matches, go to the service conditions section at www.dcra.ca. All aspects of how to conduct these matches are there in detail. All information is there for shooters and range staff alike.
 
I would still like to know if there is a specific ORA CQB rulebook etc.???

The short answer, NO. This course of fire was dreamed up by Hungry and Tim K. But by all means do come out and experience this for yourself. A condensed course of fire for the matches is handed out at the registration. It's all you realy need.
 
The course of fire run by the ORA is NOT the same as the one run by the DCRA. If you would like information about the ORA CoF, contact the match director.

The CoF is not in the rule book, but the the match is run under DCRA or ORA rules is it not?
 
The ORA SR & CQB matches are run under ORA rules and the DCRA SR matches are run under DCRA rules. The DCRA has a comprehensive published rule book that includes the rules and the CoF. The ORA does not. No big deal, many matched out there that don't publish the rules and CoF.

The OSA also runs SR matches under DCRA rules. If you want to understand the difference, the best thing is to go and shoot some matches with both the ORA and the OSA.

Sometimes a CoF is kept a secret until the beginning of the match, so that all competitors must solve problems from the same starting point.
For a particular discipline to spread and flourish, information detailing the CoFs and match conduct is just about a necessity. Not everyone is able to attend an event in order to study it. This is a big country. And even then, what do they take home? Enough information to duplicate/adapt a set of matches for use at their club at their range? Comprehensive guidebooks are standard for just about every widespread sport.
 
I didn't say that it was not available at all, just that it was not published (meaning put up publicly on a website). As I stated earlier, the ORA CoF can be obtained from the match director, its just an e-mail away...
