    I’m not familiar with the format. What’s the distance on they shot group and the position used?

    It is just a CMP Garand match, there are different varriations of it based on the number of rounds for the match, but it is sighters, slow fire prone, rapid fire prone from standing, offhand... Typically done at 200 yards but CRC has typically run reduced targets at 100 yards since they screwed with their 100/200 yard Schutzen range and added the berms and reduced the number of 200 yard stations. Match is shot with as issued 03's and Garands typically. My body prefers this style of stationary shooting vs the current 3 gun and similar matches.

    How competitive is it? I've got a CMP Garand I love shooting, but it's not a particularity outstanding example and I'm not a particularly great shot with it, but I'd like to be forced into getting better. Just don't want it to be one of those things where you just get laughed at for not being up to snuff (ask me about being 6' in middle school and being garbage at basketball )

    Same two guys usually win this match, but as you can see guys show up with all the bells and whistles (shooting coats, carts etc...) and guys show up with tee-shirts and a rifle. Its a good time but I don't take it seriously from a competitive point of view. It doesn't attract as many shooters as in years past. I would prefer to be shooting it at 200 however.
