The Belly Shoot started in September 1994 as a fun shoot. Because of the great enthusiastic participation, it soon turned into a summer league. We start in March with a prep match, April through August are league matches, and in September, we have a fun shoot. We shoot on the 200 yard range, all shooting is done in the prone position, and ALL of the WWCCA 200 yard range rules apply. Shooters may use any center fire rifle, any sights (iron or scoped), and ALL rifles must have a sling (no hasty slings). Equipment needed: a mat or rug to lay on, eye protection, and ear protection. The chairperson running the match is in command of the range until the match is declared over. WWCCA furnishes scopes, targets/pasters, and staple guns. We shoot our matches on Sunday from 10 a.m. until approximately 3 p.m. Rules and course of fire are as follows: All shooting is in the prone position. All shooting is slow fire, single round (ONLY). 1. 3 minute prep time. 2. 5 minute sighting-in period. After the sighting-in period expires, the targets are observed and any corrections are made. 3. 3 minute prep time. 4. Shooters will have 20 minutes to fire 20 rounds for score. SINGLE LOAD ONLY. 5. When shooting is over and the line is declared safe, you may go forward to score your targets.
