Welcome to the 2025 Sooner State Safari. As always I will produce a fun and enjoyable event for everyone. Safety rules will follow the NRL rules as published for 2025 with the addition of chamber flags being used, and chamber flags may be removed moments before your time is started at the direction of the Range Officer on that stage.

This match will be new shooter friendly, distances, target sizes and stage design will produce a match with lots of hits for everyone, with a very small number of challenging targets to separate the top competitors. We will focus on a fun, low stress event for everyone.

Team Division is for Teams consisting of 2 individuals. Scores will be the sum of both team member’s scores (possible 16 points per team per stage). Teams will be allotted a total of 6 minutes per stage, instead of the individual’s 4 minutes. If one team member is disqualified from competing the second team member may continue to compete, but not for score. Team member #1 must complete the stage or pass, and unload and show clear, before team member #2 may load and begin firing. Once team member #2 loads to begin the stage, team member #1 may not load again.

1. Each member of the team must carry their own rifle. Support gear or ammunition may be divided among the team to best serve them.
2. Each team member may compete with a rifle meeting the requirements of Open Heavy Division (16lbs) or less.
3. The team division will have its own separate prize table and only the top team will be awarded a trophy.
4. Teams need to keep communication private while at a stage shooting area. Discussing ranges, locations or targets in obviously loud manner will scare away the game (stage will be ended and no more points awarded after a warning from the RO). This is to prevent hunters in the staging area from gaining a competitive advantage.
5. Teams may use their rifle as an observation tool, however only one team member may have a loaded rifle at a time.

NRLH will be sending out email blasts and text blast regarding this match.
