Word on the street - this is the tentative (no, Chiz, not speculative!) program for NRA Cardinal 2025:-

10:00- opening ceremonies
11:00 - Harry Reeves revolver match
12:00 - preliminary 900
July 7th Monday

Seems that Canton main events will proceed on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Presumably practice (warm-up?) on Thursday, but no word yet on that.
Then, of course, Perry proceeds thereafter.
Current preliminary expectation is 120 to 150 shooters at NRA Cardinal.
I am not involved in this program - just sharing "the word on the street"!

Re: NRA Cardinal 2025
Wondering whether NRA will call off matches because of a little bit of wind and rain?
(No, I'm not still mad that I flew all the way across the country to shoot in wind and rain and then had a match called off due to wind and rain. Why do you ask?)

Re: NRA Cardinal 2025
So...
Looking at the schedule and with this being the NRA Championship, I have a question to ask regarding the EIC matches.
For a non distinguished shooter, would the EIC matches be considered one of the 5 allowed per calendar year? Or will you get two extra if you shoot both the NRA and Perry matches?

Re: NRA Cardinal 2025
So, I am not qualified to give a definitive answer, but, as I understand things, the EIC program has always been under the control of the CMP, so, therefore, the "National Match" exemption or "free pass" only applies to CMP Perry. But, as always, that is IMHO and subject to better informed fact!
Except for Distinguished Revolver and, my favourite, Harry Reeves, which, sadly, seem to be descending into obscurity. Pity.

Re: NRA Cardinal 2025
The extra match only applies to the National Trophy Pistol Match, which is shot on Saturday at Camp Perry, so yes, any other EIC counts against the matches you can shoot in a year.
Even at Perry, standard EIC matches count against it like the 22 or revolver EIC matches or when the warmup match was a service pistol EIC.

Re: NRA Cardinal 2025
I'm confused. Are you only allowed to shoot 5 per year? I thought I read recently that you can shoot as many as you want but can't get points in more than 5 in one year.

All the EIC matches at Camp Perry are considered national matches and therefore do not count against your 5. That includes: revolver, .22, and AP

Re: NRA Cardinal 2025
I talked to Steve on that specifically, the decision was due to the fact that they couldn’t get through commands without the soggy targets blowing out. That and trying to get an entire line of shooters to follow directions for correct replacement for the conditions is next to impossible. Was a bummer, I was only able to shoot one service pistol match outside of Perry this year.john bickar wrote:Wondering whether NRA will call off matches because of a little bit of wind and rain?

Yeah I understand the conditions, herding cats, etc. I was there. Not blaming anyone, just being my usual b*tchy self.
Cardinal definitely was short-staffed this year due to unforeseen circumstances (ask me and Tony, who were there running stats until 7PM).
That said, if NRA is going to run a National Championship there, I want to shoot the match. And if I travel all the way across the country for it, I want to shoot the match.

I agree about the Reeves match. It is a sad thing to see.
