Civilian Marksmanship Program is a bulls-eye target sport that is intended for US Service rifles and NRA match rifles. The Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) replaced the Office of the Director of Civilian Marksmanship (ODCM) program ran by the Department of Defense.
CMP rules require a center-fire rifle with iron-sights and open bolt indicators NRA High Power Rifle Rules also apply. Shooters will need a rifle that holds at least 5 rounds and can be reloaded quickly.
Some Club M1 Garand rifles are available for club members to borrow, subject to these rules.
On Sunday, April 22, 2007, the Renton Fish & Game Club, Inc will hold a High Power Rifle Workshop for Juniors and shooters who are new to CMP-style shooting.
Club membership is not required. Parental permission is required for shooter younger that 18 years of age. Space is limited and juniors will have first priority. All shooters must have basic safe gun-handling skills. The entry fee for the workshop and match is $15.
This Workshop will start at 8:45 A.M and a CMP match will be fired in the afternoon after 1:00 P.M.
Matches are generally held the fourth Saturdays of the month from March through July. Start time is 8:45 AM and matches usually last about 3 hours. The course of fire is 88 rounds at 100 yards.
Please call before the match to confirm availability of club rifles and ammunition
Entry fees are $7 for members and $10 to non-members. Only club members can use club M1 rifles and purchase ammo from the club for the match ($12).
