ABOUT PRACTICAL MINI RIFLE
Practical Mini‑Rifle is a fast-paced, accessible shooting discipline using .22 LR semi‑auto rifles with optics. Shooters engage steel and paper targets from various positions—standing, prone, kneeling, or using barricades— following a dedicated course of fire under timed conditions. It’s ideal for building accuracy and speed in a low-recoil, cost-effective format.
Each shooter is under close one-to-one supervision at all times, whilst actively shooting
