The default range commands are as follows:1. ‘LOAD AND MAKE READY’2. ‘ARE YOU READY?’ Silence will be taken as agreement – any competitorwho is not ready should call ‘NOT READY’ and raise one arm, after whichthe Chief Range Officer will confirm ‘NOT READY CALLED’ and wait forthe competitor to sort things out before proceeding with another call of ‘AREYOU READY?’3. ‘STAND BY’4. A few seconds later, the event will start. This will be signalled by the facingof turning targets, a whistle, a hooter, or some other signal as briefed by theChief Range Officer.5. ‘STOP, STOP, STOP’ On hearing this command – at ANY point during theevent – the competitor must cease shooting immediately, continue to pointthe gun in a safe direction, and wait for further instructions.6. ‘UNLOAD AND SHOW CLEAR’Any variation to these range commands will be explained by the RO while briefingthe course of fire at the start of the detail.Range Reporting TimesFor squadded events, competitors must report to the range at least 10 minutesbefore the time indicated on their squadding notice. Details will start on timeand no competitor will be permitted to join a detail after the event has started.Competitors are expected to shoot on the detail on which they are squadded - ifyou miss this detail it will be up to the Chief Range Officer whether you are allowedto shoot at a later time.86
RecordsPhoenix Meeting Records are shown for all events, except where event conditionshave changed this year. British Records are also shown, though these are onlymaintained for the classified events.Re-EntriesSecond entries, re-entries, etc, may be permitted but only if there is available rangespace after having shot your match. The score on the first entry will be the only oneto count. Re-entry scorecards will be available from Reception. This does not applyto event 6580 (McQueen) where multiple re-entries may be made (in Reception oron the range) to achieve a higher score for the event.RefundsEntry fees will be refunded, less an administration fee of £5, if written notice ofcancellation is received at the NRA one week prior to the meeting for Spring ActionWeekend, GR National Championships and Autumn Action Weekend.Phoenix refund requests must be received three weeks prior to the meeting.Any requests for refunds after these dates are at the discretion of the MeetingDirector.RegistrationWhether or not you have sent in an entry form before a meeting, please makeReception in the NRA main building your first point of call on arrival. There youwill be given your scorecards and competitor’s badge. No competitor will beallowed to take part in any event without a competitor’s badge and, in the caseof squadded events, a scorecard. If you have not sent in an entry form before themeeting, you will be required to sign a declaration before being issued with acompetitor’s badge. If you want to enter more events or enter on the day, an earlyvisit to Reception will increase your chances of getting a place.SafetyThere is no room for compromise on safety issues. All competitors are requiredto wear hearing and eye protection (unless otherwise stated in individual eventconditions). Spectators are strongly advised to do likewise and will be required towear them within certain clearly marked areas. The NRA will not be liable for anyinjury sustained through the lack of appropriate protection.Scorecards, Stats and ChallengesA scorecard will be issued for each event entered. The majority of scorecards requireonly that the number of hits of each value be recorded – calculation of actual scoreswill be carried out by Stats. The Stats portion of each card must be completed,signed by both the competitor and a witness, and handed to the RO for submission87
