Okay, target ID is another thing.
Can you clarify?
What distances, and support for the rifle and in what sort of time?
Different States will have different requirements. I was, for a while, some years ago, an assessor for the then Q DPI (QLD Department of Primary Industries), who accedited pro shooters. The requirement was 5 rounds into 75mm, origanally a silhouette of a roos head with the brain box messuring 75mm, at a 100 meters, no time limit and from what ever position the shooter normally used. I did the assesments in the field, with the shooter using his own rig, and rifle. SSAA, of course had a different spin on how the shooter was to achieve this, on a range, with the asessor's rifle and usually from the standing unsupported position.
