NRA rulebook for 10meter air pistol?
Getting ready to shoot in a league next month and I was told they go by NRA rules. This is the closest I could find. Is this correct?
"NRA International Style Pistol (Includes Air) Rules"
Guess the "International" throws me...
Thanks for replies!

There are additions in the USAS rules to allow for different range and target standards:
6.3.15.3
10 m ranges must be equipped with electric-mechanical target carriers or changers, or Electronic Scoring Targets.
USA
6.3.15.3A
USA Shooting sanctioned competitions may be shot on ranges with electric or manual target carriers or fixed multiple bull targets adjustable for height.
------------
8.4.10.1 Spotting Telescopes
The use of telescopes not attached to the pistol to locate shots or judge the wind is permitted for 25 m and 50 m events only.
USA
8.4.10.1A
The use of telescopes not attached to the pistol to locate shots or judge the wind is permitted for all pistol events.

Hi Fred,
I don't seem to have any trouble here; I just checked. Are you able to open the files in place by just clicking on them? If so, maybe you can then use Acrobat's Save File to copy it to disk. (Actually, if you get it to open properly in Inernet Explorer, you'll have a copy in the Temp Files.) If you'd like, I can send them via email to your address shown at the bottom of your message. Let me know...
Just for kicks see if these open from the below links:

1/ who needs a scope for 10M (if you are shooting to ISSF rules)?Jerry LeVan wrote:Just out of curiosity, what is the rational for not allowing spotting scopes in
10 meter air events?
Jerry
On paper targets you wind the target back and collect it after each competition shot (I am not aware of any ISSF championship using fanfold targets for 10M); if on EST the monitor will be more accurate than the scope, and quicker
2/ there is not enough space on a 10M bay if the shooters use scopes. There are those who will argue that they are different cause they only use itty-bitty scopes that take up soooo little space that there is no problem; but in practice it ain't so - in any case, see 1 above...

I would guess that the vast majority of shooters in the USA do not shoot using ISSF rules. Most are proably NRA rules.
There is plenty of room for a scope if you use the right mount. Just as there is plenty of room if you use all the appropriate equipment. Even with target carrier controls at our club there is sufficient room for a small tripod, pellet box, and pistol.
Most competitors at our club just use the target carrier to see their shot holes. They just pull the target away from the back stop enough to let light through the holes, then send them back to the stop.
