COMPETITIVE ACTIVITIES – CORPS/SQUADRON MARKSMANSHIP

CORPS/SQUADRON MARKSMANSHIP COMPETITION

Objective: To provide cadets the opportunity to compete within the squadron.

Scoring: Targets will be scored IAW A-CR-CCP-177/PT-001, to include:

Each target has a highest possible score of 100 points (10 diagrams worth 10 points each).

All shot holes are scored using the highest value of the scoring ring that it is broken.

Shots outside the scoring rings are given a value of zero.

If more than the one pellet is fired on a target, the shots with the highest value will be discarded until one shot remain on the target. Also, a two-point penalty will be deducted for each excess shot.

If more than one shot is fired at a scoring diagram, only the prescribed number of shots may be fired at the remaining diagrams [eg, if two shots were fired at the first diagram, one diagram on the target would remain blank (free of shots)]. If this occurs more than twice, a two-point penalty will be deducted for each excess shot.

This activity may be conducted as individuals or teams of four.
