Conditions: HEAVY SNOW
STORMS WERE EXPECTED. This was a Winter Mountain
Patrol (Snowshoe and rifle carry) with expected deep snow (3 feet to
5+ feet projected). This was a blast! Snow depth was about 4 + feet
deep. Course
and courses of fire:
HANDGUN
LEVEL 1 COMPETITION (SHOOTING FROM STANDING POSITION WITH
SNOWSHOES ON): Youth
/ Adults (Pistol
Marksmanship - 2 courses of fire (5 shots each) (total - 10
shots). For results, use aggregate scores for both pistol courses of
fire. Targets at distances ranging from 7 to 30 yard distances
and with targets being at left and right of shooter. Thus, Pistol
field of fire: 20 yards wide - 30 yards long. (We have done this
course and it works well).
AND
RIFLE
LEVEL 2.5 COMPETITION: Youth / Adults. (New
course of fire) Rifle
Marksmanship at 100 Yards with Snowshoe Patrol march to range (total
snowshoe patrol distance approximately 1.4 miles round trip).
Minutemen will cover distance of
approximately .7 miles (1,232 yards) to range (thus, total Snowshoe
course is approximately 1.4 miles, including return trip). At range,
Minuteman will engage targets (approximately 6" diameter)
at 100 yards in a timed competition. Minutemen will fire 5
shots from the standing position followed by 5 shots from the
prone position. The shooting portion of the event will be timed and
hits counted to determine scores and rankings. Minutemen will
carry the following: unloaded rifle along the entire course (ECI)
(slings recommended with scope cover to protect against snow),
ammunition separately (each minuteman should bring at least 100
rounds for competition and plinking), water, snack, and small
backpack with emergency supplies. A pull sled shall be used for
transport of necessary gear (e.g., targets, stove, etc...).

How the
official Minuteman Biathlon Scoring is done:
The SCORING MASTER
CONTROL SHEET (same scoring as for the Minuteman Summer
Biathlon) reflects the following scoring methods:
Each Marksman's Total Score (and ranking) will be a combined
total of his/her Race Score and his/her Hit Score
determined as follows for each category ( i.e., Categories
are: BSA Scope; BSA IRON; Venturing Scope; Venturing IRON)
(Venturing has a girls and boys scoring):
|
|
Each running
portion of the Biathlon will be scored using the
following Percent Back System:
Marksman's % Back = (2-(Marksman's Time / Scoring
Base)) X100
(The Running Scoring Base is the average time of the top three
finishers)
(Formula Source: 2005
IBU Summer Biathlon World Championships)
|
|
Each Target Hit
portion of the Biathlon will be scored as
follows:
(Marksman's Hits / Hit Scoring Base) X 120.
(The Hit Scoring Base is the average Hits of the top three
finishers)
NOTE: The Marksmanship
Portion is weighted 120 (not 100) due to the emphasis we are
placing on shooting skills.
