March John C Garand Match
Just a reminder,
Tucson Rifle Club's March John C Garand Match will be held this coming Sunday 19 Mar 06.
Once again this month shooters in the "As Issued" match will use new CMP optical character reader scorecards. Remember, even though you may not be shooting an "As Issued" rifle you may be scoring for someone who is. Know how to fill in the card correctly!
Go to http://www.tucsonrifleclub.org/Forms/CMP.jpg for a look at the new instructions.
Key points are:
-Name, address, etc info need to filled out completely and *legibly!*
-Xs are entered as "10" and a filled in "X" bubble
-Misses are entered as "0" and a filled in "M" bubble
-No extraneous marks on the form or in the boxes to confuse the optical character reading machine
The information on these scorecards is used to determine the top 100 Garand Match scores nationwide which are posted at
