The Rules of the Game

These basic rules are for UK Sporting Clays (see Appendix for other Governing Bodies):

1. When calling for the target, gun position is optional. The shooter may start with a low gun hold or a pre-mounted gun.

2. Only two shells may be loaded.

3. A visible piece of the target must be broken off the target for a score.

4. If the second target of a report pair is a ‘no bird’, the pair is repeated but the score from the first target is counted.

5. If a pair is broken with one shot, both are counted as dead.

6. Failure to remove the safety or load a shell is a lost target. In the case of a gun malfunction, the competitor should not open it, but remain in the station with the gun pointing down range until the referee examines the gun to determine the cause of the malfunction. If it is mechanical, and not ‘operator error’, the target can be retaken.

7. If an event is not shot in the squad format, a competitor can shoot the stations in any order. After handing in his card, he will be called to shoot in turn.

8. If there is no competitor in front of him, he is entitled to view a pair before shooting.
