We hold an NRA outdoor 1800 match on the first Saturday of each month throughout the year at Albuquerque’s Shooting Range Park. We normally meet at 8:30am at our shed near the office. First shots are at 9:00am.

Our outdoor course of fire is the standard NRA 900. We usually shoot at 25 yards, but when the time gets close to the State Matches we’ll move slow fire to 50 yards for those who want the practice.

Stage 1) Slow fire. 20 rounds in 20 minutes.

Stage 2) The National Match Course.

Slow fire. 10 rounds in 10 minutes

Timed fire, Two strings of five rounds, each in 20 seconds

Rapid fire, Two strings of five rounds, each in 10 seconds.

Stage 3) Timed fire, Four strings of five rounds, each in 20 seconds

Stage 4) Rapid fire, Four strings of five rounds, each in 10 seconds

We usually gather afterward at Double Eagle Airport’s “Bombing Range” restaurant for good food and conversation.
