Know Your Limits (KYL) .22 Rimfire Rifle

2023 KYL Discipline

MATCH DIRECTORS: Randy Rogers, Leonard Turnbull
Targets are 8 swinging steel targets at 50 yards, ranging in size from 2” diameter to ¼” diameter in ¼” increments. You have 8 rounds MAXIMUM to score as many hits as possible

Targets must be shot in order of largest to smallest. Targets must visibly “swing” to be counted as a hit (Match Director’s decision is final). If a target is shot at and missed, you lose all points accumulated to that point. If a target is shot out of order, you lose all points accumulated to that point. Shooter may stop at any time and record all points scored to that point. If time runs out prior to a miss or completion of all 8 shots the shooter records all points accumulated to that point. If, while shooting the rack, the shooter misses a target but still has any number of the allowed 8 rounds left, they may return to the first target and begin the process over.

A match consists of 4 relays lasting 90 seconds each,
Match score is the total of all points recorded in each relay,
NO COACHING ALLOWED – Shooter is responsible for hitting correct targets, doping wind, etc.,
No scores will be announced until the end of the match,
