I enjoyed that event more than any of the others. The main reason why is that most of the targets were a reasonable size for airguns. The regular NRL22 targets during a normal NRL22 match are sized for 22rf so the hit ratios for airguns are much lower which isn't near as fun to me. If its windy then it gets much harder as well.

Maybe this winter I'll try a NRL22 match with slugs which should up the hit ratio enough to make the 3 hour drive worth doing. Justin Welch sure did well with slugs at the NRL-ish match at EBR.
 
What is the purpose of a barricade? TIA

Positional shooting vs sitting static on a bench. Many stages in nrl22 require at least one position change or target switch (at different yardages) in the 2 min course of fire with 10-12 rounds fired in that time. 

Standard props are a rooftop, folding chair, sawhorse, ladder, and tank trap.
