Match Safety. Fredericksburg Rod & Gun Club is a Cold Range. Guns are to be loaded only on the firing line
under the direct supervision of a Range Officer. Guns are to be unloaded and holstered, or
bagged, when off the line, unless in a Safety Area. All Safety Areas are clearly marked. Your car
IS NOT a Safety Area. Gun handling at your car is prohibited and Violations are subject to
match disqualification (see Rules 10.5.1 & 10.5.12).
Do not climb on the berms or cross any safety line. Children and pets should be controlled at all
times for their personal safety.
All competitors must wear eye and hearing protection while on the line. Eye protection is
required to be worn by everyone while on the range. Spectators are strongly encouraged to
wear hearing protection while observing the shooting.

permanent restroom facilities are closed for the duration of the match.

the conclusion of the match.

Handgun Competition Rules, USPSA Edition, February 2014.
Popper Calibration: Any challenge to a score or penalty must be appealed to the Range Master
by the competitor (or his delegate) prior to the subject target being painted, patched, or reset,
failing which such challenges will not be accepted.
Match Scoring: If you have a question regarding your posted score, recheck your score sheet. If
you still think there is a problem, contact the Chief Stats Officer. We will do everything humanly
possible to avoid errors, but YOU are ultimately responsible for the accuracy of your score.
Please check posted scores before departing the range.
Arbitration Requests: The arbitration fee is $100. Ask the CRO for an Arbitration Request Form
and ask for assistance in retaining evidence. Complete and return the form within one hour of
the time noted on the score sheet, together with the arbitration fee, to the Range Master.
Preparation: Shooters are expected to come to the line with their gun holstered and
ammunition in place when it is your time to shoot.
Rain Covers: Paper targets will be covered with transparent plastic if there is rain only by order
of the Range Master. The plastic covers will be removed when the rain stops only by order of
the Range Master.
Lost Brass: As a matter of efficiency, all brass collected from the range is deposited in the
designated range pail. Brass is distributed to the range officers at the conclusion of the match in
consideration for their hard work.
Scheduling: Competitors must compete for score according to the published match and
squadding schedule. A competitor who is not present at the scheduled time and date for any
stage may not attempt that stage without the prior approval of the Match Director, failing
which the competitor’s score for that stage will be zero. (6.5.1). On occasion, stages will clear
squads early. If your entire squad is available and the CRO approves, the squad will be allowed
to shoot ahead of schedule only on the scheduled date.
Inspection: When the entire squad is assembled at the scheduled time, a brief stage
walk-through will be given, followed by a three-minute inspection and question period.
Shooters at their scheduled stage may negotiate obstacles only during the three-minute
inspection period. The on-deck competitor only may additionally negotiate obstacles while the
previous competitor’s targets are being scored. Early inspection of a stage is permitted by
competitors only if a squad is not currently on the course of fire or getting ready to begin it. Do
not operate any of the moving targets or props that activate such movers. If the RO staff is
present on a stage, please extend to them the professional courtesy of asking before inspecting
the course of fire.
Eye and Ear Protection: All competitors must wear eye and ear protection while on the line.
Eye protection is required to be worn by everyone while on the range.
After Hours Stage Walk-Through: Please observe a “hands off” posture while walking through
stages without a Staff member present. Any competitor activating moving targets (without a
Staff Member present), moving or adjusting props will have their registration dropped and will
not compete with no refund.
