An 1800 bullseye match is shot at 25 yards and consists of multiple individual matches. There is a slow fire match shot on B-16 targets that are stationary. You shoot two targets ten shots each in ten minutes in two separate stages.

Then you shoot the National Match Course which consists of another slow fire target, then a timed fire target B-8 shot in two stages of five shots in twenty seconds for a total of ten shots. This is followed by a rapid fire stage also shot on a B-8 target. This is also shot in two stages of five shots but now it's ten seconds for a total of ten shots. The timed & rapid fire stages are shot at turning targets.

Then is the timed fire match which consists of two more B-8 targets shot again five shots in twenty seconds twice for ten shots on each target.

Then is the rapid fire match which consists of two more B-8 targets shot again five shots in ten seconds twice for ten shots on each target.

The total number of shots is ninety.

An 1800 match is first shot with a .22 pistol. Then you shoot the full ninety shots again with any centerfire pistol. For a total of 180 shots.

Ok, I did this 1800 match and got my clock cleaned.

Not bad if you consider 16th place out of 19 shooters. Truth is, I had a blast and can't wait to do it again. A lot of fun, nice people, and lots of great shooters who were willing to help me out in my first NRA match.

Thanks bsimardjr for running this.
