Setup: This match uses one AAPS "B1" paper target (T1), one "B2" target (T2) and two "A" targets (T3 and T4). Targets T1 to T4 are aligned in a row 15' in front of shooting box C. The spacing between T1 and T3/T4 is 4.5' and the spacing between T3/T4 and T2 is 4.5' (measured center to center). Targets T1, T2, and T3 are 52" to 55" off the ground. Target T4 is 37" to 40" off the ground. Shooting box A is placed 7' in front of T2 and shooting box B is placed 7' in front of T1. The centers of shooting boxes A and B should be 9' apart. Shooting box C is placed in front of T3/T4 and is 15' from it. Popper CP1 is placed 1' in front of T1 and 12" to 15" off the ground. Popper CP2 is placed 1' in front of T2 and 12" to 15" off the ground. T1 and CP1 may be angled toward shooting box A. T2 and CP2 may be angled toward shooting box B. The stop plate is placed 3' in front of T3/T4 and is 20" to 23" off the ground. The shooting boxes measures 30" x 30".

Start: The competitor begins standing in shooting box A facing the targets in the surrender position. The pistol is holstered and in the loaded and ready condition. On the start signal, the competitor draws and engages T1 and CP1 (in any order) and then moves to shooting box B and engages T2 and CP2 (in any order). The shooter then moves to shooting box C and engages T3 and T4 (in any order) and then shoots the stop plate. When moving between shooting boxes, the pistol must always point downrange. Only two shots are allowed on each paper target. There is no limit to the number of shots that can be made on the poppers or the stop plate. While shooting from the shooting boxes, no part of the body may touch the ground outside the box. Your score should be reported as a "Hit Factor" (see the scoring section below).

Scoring: For this postal match, you must report your score as a hit factor. Your hit factor is your total target score (minus any misses and penalties) divided by your time. Hit factors must be reported to two decimal places. Shots in the "A" zone count 5 points each, "C" zone hits are worth 3 points each, and hits in the "D" zone count one point each. Shots in the non-scoring border area count 0 points. For any shot that misses the target or hits a no-shoot target you must subtract 10 points from you score. If more than two shots are taken at a paper target during each string, then a penalty of 10 points must be subtracted from your score for each extra shot and the hit from the extra shot is not counted for scoring. Hits in the hard cover area (the black areas of the targets) do not count for scoring and are not assessed a penalty. A hit is scored based on the location where the BB entered the target and does not include tears radiating out from the point of impact. If the BB diameter of a hit touches the line between two or more scoring areas or between a non-scoring and scoring area, the higher value should be scored. The maximum target score for this match is 50 (8 "A" zone hits at five points each and 2 poppers at 5 points each). To calculate your hit factor, divide your target score by your time (recorded to the nearest 0.01 s) and report the results to two decimal places. The higher your hit factor, the better your score.

There are no special considerations for this postal match. Competitors must use AAPS regulation GBB pistols, holsters, and targets. Timing must be done with a stop plate.
