The course of fire consists of fifty (50) rounds shot at 200 yards using targets for a course of fire at 200 yards, and simulate 300 and 600 yard targets. Ten (10) rounds are fired from the standing position in ten minutes, slow fire at a distance of 200 yards. Ten (10) rounds are fired from a sitting or kneeling position (starting from a standing position) in 60 seconds, rapid fire, at a 200 yard target.
