I'm not a definitive source, but I play the game pretty well.
I agree wholly with Mr White's write-up, including the stage order.
Here's all I have for amplification:
Sign up online and arrive early. This will let you get your name on the stage lists so you can shoot and scoot.
Enter in at least 2 divisions, preferably ones that use the same gun (I shot a 17 in Civilian, Competition, and Unlimited). You can shoot twice in a row with no problem, 3 in a row if the guy behind you is ok with it. I shot the division I was least likely to win at 1st (Unlimited), then Competition, then the division I could likely win (Civilian). It costs more $, but increases your chances of leaving with a prize; by performance, random drawing, or both.
If you enter multiple divisions, take 4 magazines per division, and have them filled before going to the shooting point.
