About the Points Race
The goal of the points race is to use the crucible of competition to improve our New Mexico Precision Rifle shooters' skills and prepare them to attend bigger regional and national matches. At the same time, doing this brings together like-minded individuals to grow our sport, our club, and a sense of fellowship.
The series will run from the 2nd weekend in March and end with a 2-day match in April 2026. The Monthly matches will be held at the Del Norte Gun Club (Rio Rancho), and The Zia Rifle And Pistol Club (Albuquerque).
Entry into the Series is $60 and may be entered at any time. A look-back entry will be permitted, but only the previous match will count for points. 100% of this money will be returned to the shooters through:
Scoring System
