Preferably an AR-15 with load bearing vest (from personal issue TA-50), but any reasonable center fire rifle from 223 to 308 will be acceptable.
12 shots

Place a zero target (NSN: 6920-01-660-9191 or 6920-01-660-0348) at 25 meters from the shooter. Shooters fill three magazines with two rounds each and prepare their equipment as needed.

Stage 1
Start position: Standing position at low ready (muzzle pointed down at a 45 degree angle) in condition Red (charged magazine in place, chamber loaded, safety on “SAFE”) with two rounds loaded (one chambered one in the magazine).

The other two-round magazines will be secured in magazine pouches on the shooter's equipment (not on the ground.) At the command to fire, assume a prone unsupported position and engage the zero target with two rounds, reload without command and re-engage the zero target with two more rounds from the unsupported kneeling position, reload without command and re-engage the zero target with two rounds from the unsupported standing position. In prone unsupported the magazine may touch the ground but a sandbag or other support is not allowed.

Time limit: 40 seconds. All shots fired after the “Cease Fire” command is given are penalized ten points each. Stage

2: Repeat Stage 1. Allow enough time in between each stage to fill magazines and prepare accordingly. Shooters may observe their target after Stage 1 and before Stage 2 if desired with optics or by going down range.

Maximum score possible: 120 points (12 total rounds fired).

Participants do not need to remain on the range once they have completed their 12 round course of fire.

Yea, I'll have targets. However, the link in the postal match details has them at the back of the PDF

https://www.usar.army.mil/Commands/F...s/PostalMatch/

I'll be printing them off from there. So you aren't getting anything special.
