They will fire 10 rounds from 7, 10, and 15 yards and 20 rounds from 25 yards. All shooting will be from a standing position. A Rangemaster will be present at all times to assist and oversee contestants.

Prizes awarded to the top scores are Grand Prize $200, 2^nd place $100, and 3^rd place $50. Proceeds from the event benefit Sunrise Rotary’s Creating Educational Opportunities (CEO) partner, East Lincoln Elementary School in Tullahoma.
