How could a shooter score a ASSRA record target at TR&R?
Joe.
Not sure what you mean Joe. I won't be running matches if I can't shoot. No reason to do it. If you mean a national record, it would be sent to the ASSRA for verification.
In NRA silhouettes, match officials are (or were) allowed to participate back when I was trying to get BP started in the 90s before Steve Morris got them started at Eatonville.
NRA BP target and other disciplines do not (or did not) allow any match officials to participate, so none of the BP matches at TRR were ever NRA associated. At the shooters meeting at Raton after the NRA BP programs in 1999, I mentioned that inequity between the sports. It was suggested I just shoot, sign the forms and send them in anyway. As a matter of principle, I'm not going to lie on the forms I sign for them. I do not know if they have changed it since.
There doesn't seem to be any interest in BP paper target shooting up here anymore. Steve Anderson gave up the program he started after I quit doing it at TRR for lack of participation.
Bottom line being if I can't play as a match official, I'm not interested in doing the matches. I'll just waiting for someone to take over or just do something else. It hasn't ever been an issue in the 30 years I've been at it doing ML, BP and SS.
