I read a lot about people competing in rifle matches,,,
But I rarely ever know what matches they are referring to.

What is the name for 50 yard precision .22 matches using bolt action rifles?

What is the name for 50 yard precision .22 matches using semi-auto rifles?

What is the name for the silhouette matches that shoots at 25, 50, 75, and 100 yards/meters?

What is the name for the silhouette matches that shoots at 50, 100, 150, and 200 yards/meters?

If you have website addresses for any of these,,,
Please post them as well.

Thanks gentlemen,,,

Next bowling pin match in June at OKCGC will have a 22 class, looking foreward to that one. It will only be the top 3" of the pin.

I was actually hoping for the official names for the different competitions,,,
So I could look up their websites and check out the rules.

I know the name "NRL-22" so I was able to search it,,,
I learned a lot from their website.

Any help here would be appreciated.

OKC Gun club's airgun group conducts an occasional N50 competition that has 22lr classes along with the air rifle classes. It's a benchrest event shot at 50 yards.
