AOA Extreme Field Target Grand Prix – (Friday and Saturday Mornings 8:30am to11:30am)

The Extreme Field Target Event will be limited to 45 competitors with match time starting for all competitors at 8;30 am, Friday and Saturday mornings. We will have 15 lanes with 2 targets per lane We will have 3 competitors per squad. There is a 120fpe power limit & .30 calibers or less, PELLETS ONLY - NO SLUGS. Any scope, but your scope power must be set to 32X or less.

The targets are mostly round swingers painted red, with backstops that will be painted white so you can see your hits and misses. Any movement of the spinner is considered a hit. The non-shooting squad mates will time, score and spot hit and misses for the shooting competitor. If you have a spotting scope or binoculars, please bring them.

Competitors will have 3 min. to take their 4 shots. Targets will be set at 15 yards to 110 yards. The target distance will be posted in the lanes. The smallest spinner is 7/8” and largest is 4”.

100-yard AirGun Oregon AOA Extreme 100 yd Pellet class Bench Rest – (Friday and Saturday Afternoons and Finals Sunday Afternoon)

The 100 yd Pellet class Extreme Bench Rest relays will be contested on Friday and Saturday after the Extreme Field Target match and lunch, starting around 11:45 am. There will be up to 3 relays of 15 competitors, allowing for 45 total participants in the EBR 100 pellet event.

We will bring back the well liked 100 yd Bench Rest “Unlimited 120fpe Slug” class this year.

The relays will start around noon after the EFT events and be three relays with 18 benches for Pellets, then three relays of slugs. Rifles are limited to 120fpe and 35 calibers for safety and scoring. There will be only be 20 minutes to shoot your 25-bull card (because we have 6 relays to shoot each afternoon), and 5 mins. to remove your equipment from the bench. Tethering will be allowed in the Unlimited Slug Class. Tanks must be securely placed so you can stay on your bench during the entire match. Please wait until all the shooters are done, if you finish before the time is up wait silently and maybe check your card to be sure you shot each bull. Contestants will draw relay and lane assignments upon arrival and shoot with the same group both days. Relay start times will be reversed for the second card on Saturday afternoon.

We will keep the number of competitors in each relay as equal as possible. Only 18 can make the finals, so if we end up with 3 relays of 18, then the top 6 two-day combined scores will make the finals from the 3 relays of 18. The Finals will be on Sunday after the Long-Range Big Bore Challenge. Only the Finals card on Sunday will determine the winner of the Extreme Bench Rest Contest.



145 to 300 Long Range Challenge

The 145 to 300 Long Range Challenge Relays will start after the Bench Rest Finals on Sunday, hopefully about 11am.

This year we have upgraded LED light Hit Indicators on the targets, so we will not have to call cold lines and score the targets between target changes which save a lot of time at the shooting line. We will have 5 lanes/benches with only one target on each lane at 145, 175, 195, 250 and 300 yards. You will take 5 shots on each target. Hitting the center bull spinner of the target will light the 10 points flasher and the outside swinger will light the 5-point LEDs, for a possible 50 points per lane, or 250 potential points for the match.

You will get 5 mins to take your 5 shots. Your gun must be kept on the shooting bench and pointed downrange at all times. Tethering will be allowed. Tanks must be placed securely on your bench during the entire match. Please wait until all the shooters are done. If you finish before the time is up. Please quietly wait until all shooters are done and you move to the next bench/target.
