9.7.3

Should a competitor refuse to sign or initial a score sheet, for any reason, the matter must be referred to the
Range Master. If the Range Master is satisfied that the course of fire has been conducted and scored
correctly the unsigned score sheet will be submitted as normal for inclusion in the match results.

9.7.4

A score sheet signed by both a competitor and a Range Officer is conclusive evidence that the course of fire
has been completed, and that the time, scores and penalties recorded on the score sheet, are accurate and
uncontested. The signed score sheet is deemed to be a definitive document and, with the exception of the
mutual consent of the competitor and the signatory Range Officer, or due to an arbitration decision, the score
sheet will only be changed to correct arithmetical errors or to add procedural penalties under Rule 8.6.2.

9.7.5

If a score sheet is found to have insufficient or excess entries, or if the time has not been recorded on the
score sheet, it must be promptly referred to the Range Master who will normally require the competitor to
reshoot the course of fire.

9.7.6

In the event that a reshoot is not possible for any reason, the following actions will prevail:
9.7.6.1

If the time is missing, the competitor will receive a zero score for the stage.

9.7.6.2

If insufficient hits or misses have been recorded on the score sheet, those which have been
recorded will be deemed complete and conclusive.

9.7.6.3

If excessive hits or misses have been recorded on the score sheet, the highest value scoring hits
recorded will be used.

9.7.6.4

Procedural penalties recorded on the score sheet will be deemed complete and conclusive, except
where Rule 8.6.2 applies.

9.7.6.5

If the identity of the competitor is missing from a score sheet, it must be referred to the Range
Master, who must take whatever action he deems necessary to rectify the situation.

9.7.7

In the event that an original score sheet is lost or otherwise unavailable, the competitor's duplicate copy, or
any other written or electronic record acceptable to the Range Master, will be used. If the competitor's copy,
or any other written or electronic record, is unavailable, or is deemed by the Range Master to be
insufficiently legible the competitor will be required to reshoot the course of fire. If the Range Master deems
that a reshoot is not possible for any reason, the competitor will incur a zero time and score for the affected
stage.

9.7.8

No person, other than an authorized Match Official, is permitted to handle an original score sheet retained on
a stage, or at any other place, after it has been signed by a competitor and a Range Officer, without the prior
approval of the Range Officer or personnel directly involved with Stats. Violations will incur a warning for
the first offense, but may be subject to Section 10.6 for subsequent occurrences in the same match.
