The match is divided into a Pre and Main Match, where the Pre Match is for the Range Officers later working at the Main Match as well as representatives of the match sponsors. The Main Match lasts three days (Thursday, Friday and Saturday), and is divided into morning and afternoon shifts. On Sunday, the best shooters from the Main Match vie for the Shoot-Off, which was changed to the Super Six format in 2015. Then the six best shooters from the Main Match in each division and some categories compete in an elimination round across three stages. The match is finished with an award ceremony.

Lubor Novak from the Czech Republic is the Match Director and founder of the match, and Wieslaw Geno Sioda from Poland is Stats Director.

The shooting competition in 2020 was postponed to year 2021.
