G'Day Muttang,
A full CFHC match is 100 & 200yds score match where you have 5 targets at each distance, each target has 6 bulls (5 scoring & 1 sighter) on it and each bull has a 1/2moa centre with a dot. So the name of the game is 1 shot at each scoring bull, clip the edge and score the highest score, 7 minutes to complete your 5 scoring shots per target face.
The rifle is basically a BR rifle with minimum 2 shot mag but have a go with your hunting rifle if you like. Go to this link to see the full description

In the rule book see sect 17 pg 35 for hunter class section and sect 21 for a view of the targets
Or so much easier, visit the range and ask I know some of the BR guys there and all of them are more than willing to help you, who knows you may get a few shots out of one of their rifles, but beware, it is addictive when you shoot a rifle that can drive a bullet through the previous one!
