17. NATIONAL RECORDS
17.1 Where Scores for National Records Can Be Fired-Scores to be
recognized as National Records must be fired in NRA Registered competition
as defined in Rule 1.6, paragraphs (c), (d), (e), and (f). National Records must
be approved by the NRA before being declared official. National Records may
not be established during re-entry matches.
17.2 Scores to be Used-Scores must be complete scores for an entire
scheduled match. Stage scores or scores for only part of a match will not be
used for Records.
o 17.3 Scores for National Individual Records-Such scores must be fired
in individual matches. No scores fired in a team match will be considered for
recognition as an individual record. For recognition as special group records
("Open," "Civilian ... .. Police ... .. Service," "Women," "Junior ... .. Senior")
scores may be fired in either open or restricted matches. See Rules 1.7(c) and 13(e).
o 17A Scores for National Team Records-Such scores must be fired in
matches where teams fire as a unit and no combination of individual match
scores will be considered for recognition as a team record. For recognition as
special group records ("Open ... .. Civilian ... .. Police ... .. Service," "Women,"
"Junior ... .. Senior") all members of the team must be members of the special
group concerned (Rule 1.7(e)). Teams must be bona fide teams as outlined in
Rules 2. 10 to 2.18. National Records will not be recognized for "pickup" teams
(teams made up of shooters who do not represent one of the groups outlined
in Rules 2. 1 0 to 2.18).
o 17.5 Courses of Fire for which National Records Are Recognized-
Note: National High Power Rifle Records are maintained for scores fired
over the following courses for "Open, " "Police, " "Service, " "Civilian, "
"Women, " "Junior " and "Senior" categories fired on the targets indicated
and for metallic sights only unless specified otherwise. The "Service" category
includes Regular Service, Reserve Components, and National Guard. In
order for records to be recognized promptly, National Record Reporting forms
must be submitted to NRA by the Statistical Officer of the tournament in which
they were fired, after being certified by the Jury or Referee. National Record
Reporting forms are mailed to sponsors of NRA Registered Tournaments by
NRA Headquarters.
Unlimited sighting shots shall be fired and recorded in courses of fire
described in Rule 17.5 (y) and (z). Two sighters will be optional in course of
fire (ac), and two sighters shall be fired and recorded in each stage of all other
listed courses of fire. Team matches may be fired without sighters.
