Jay,
This is an NRA High Power match. Most usually it’s an 80 round match with a total of 800 possible points.

20 rounds slow fire offhand at 200 yards. 20 minute time limit.
2 strings of 10 rounds each at 200 from a kneeling position. Each string takes 60 seconds with a mandatory magazine change.
2 strings of 10 rounds each at 300 from a prone position. Each string takes 70 seconds with a mandatory magazine change.
Finally, 20 rounds at 600 yards prone slow fire. 20 minutes to finish.
In each case, the x ring is about a minute across. The 10 ring is about two minutes.

Sounds easy until you try to do it.

Brandon is a great shooter. The T2K is without a doubt the most user friendly match rifle ever produced. That being said, for excellence in bolt work Gary Anderson was the best ever. Shooting a right hand M 70 Winchester 308 he operated the bolt left-handed.
Gary won two NRA national championships with an old- school 308 match rifle. . In my estimation, and given equipment limitations, his 1990x 2000 score represents the pinnacle of NRA HP championship shooting.
Of course, bring on the skeptics; just pick up a
Winchester model 70 308 in a marksman stock- and replicate the score. At the Nationals

70 seconds to fire 10 rounds at 300 yards with a mandatory mag change.
The x ring is about a minute across. And you can bet that most of those rounds went in that x ring.

Outstanding, much like the Norwegian speed shooters smooth as glass.
What is the time given to shoot the 10 rds?
What is the target size in minutes?

A couple of bobbles with the bolt but he still works it pretty fast. I notice stuff like that because I do it on occasion with my T2K. He is a great shooter though and keeps his focus where it needs to be.
