overview

The .308 Rifle Challenge takes place March 8, 2026, starting at 9:00 am. This is a one-day positional rifle match built exclusively around .308 rifles, with registration and scoring managed through Impact Scoring.
Designed for shooters who want a fundamentals-driven format without complicated rules, the match centers on practical positions, recoil control, and clean execution with factory ammunition only.

  • 8 positional stages (no pure prone focus)
  • 3 targets per stage: Easy (3 pts), Medium (5 pts), Hard (7 pts)
  • Up to 10 rounds per stage - shooter-managed strategy
  • .308 caliber only (bolt or gas gun)
  • Factory ammo required (no handloads)
  • $60 entry fee

The 3/5/7-point system forces real risk–reward decisions: stack safe points or push for high-value hits.

Shooter Insight:

With full-power .308 recoil and limited rounds, efficient transitions and disciplined shot calls matter more than raw speed.
