Rifle-specific details:

Official site: https://elr22association.com/ · Researched 2026-10-11 · Confidence med. Rules change every season; the official rulebook always wins.

Tikka T1x

T1x fit
Fine for Production with a scope that has lots of elevation (or a 20+ MOA rail). Expect big drops; see zeroing.

CZ 457

457 fit
Same: a heavy-barrel 457 with a high-MOA rail and lots of scope elevation travel suits it.

What it is

A .22 LR extreme-long-range match series, roughly 195–610 yd.

Rules, divisions & equipment limits

Production and Open classes. Factory .22 LR ammo, up to nine targets with five shots each, and shooting prone or from a bench. Targets beyond 350 yd need camera or hit-indicator coverage and an official spotter.

Scoring

Hits are weighted by distance (2x, 1.5x, then 1x per impact), and season points use a performance formula.
