USPSA
Sanctioned Approved Competition at Deep 50 Gun Range
We are sanctioned and approved to host all USPSA and SCSA matches at our range. With each shooting discipline, the stages are set to each event and we follow the rulebook that is most current. For more information on the specific rules, please follow the links.
1.)United States Practical Shooting Association Rules
2.) Steel Challenge Rules
Each one of these shooting disciplines has it’s own unique characteristic. If you are new to Competition Shooting, then we always recommend starting out with The Steel Challenge shooting competition. You will stand in a box and engage 5 steel targets in what’s called a “String”. The time will stop on the last shot fired. You will do this 5 times per Stage, and your worst time will be eliminated. There are a total of 6 stages at this match and it is a fun and addicting sport.
When you are ready for some fast action at will shooting, then you should move on to USPSA. You will be given instructions on how to start the stage HOWEVER, it is up to you to decide the best way to engage the targets for you or your equipment. You are scored on your speed and accuracy . This sport is a great blend of your imagination and your proficiency . Your skills will greatly improve by at least 10 times versus a trainer or just practicing.
Please pay attention to these details.
