Beginning 04-01-2017
To qualify for the 600/1000 yard side and be issued a Key to the long range access road, you must be a PSC Member and will need to participate in a Long Range F-class, Bench Rest, or Black Powder Rifle match. (Other Qualification methods may be allowed if the participant is unable to attend a Regular Scheduled Match but only at the discretion of A PSC Match Director).
By participating in a match, you will become accustomed to how the target carriers work and acquire a good understanding about long range shooting. All matches are posted in advance on the PSC website calendar and All Match directors are listed on the Pascagoula Shooting Club Forum as well.
Participation in A Bench Rest Match is strongly recommended for your qualification due being a much slower paced Match and for the first time Bench Rest shooter the Match is free. Once the Match has been satisfactorily completed, one of the PSC Match directors will issue you a 600 yard Gate key and stamp your membership card as being 600 yard certified.
