FAQ

What happens to my data if I cancel or downgrade?

Nothing is deleted. Every run you have logged, every gun in your vault, and every custom drill and stage you have made stays on your account, whatever plan you are on.

When a paid plan ends you move to the free plan. You still see your full run log, but stats and charts cover the last 30 days, and the paid features lock: full-history analytics, per-gun insight, leaderboard insight, team analytics, CSV export, and stage editing. Subscribe again and all of it opens back up with nothing missing.

Free-plan limits apply to new additions only. If you have more than 2 guns or 3 custom drills when you downgrade, you keep them all and can keep editing them; you just can't add another until you are back under the limit or on a paid plan.

Teams are the one thing that changes. The free plan allows one team, Pro five, Ultra ten. If you belong to more than your plan allows, you get 7 days to choose which to keep. If you don't choose, we do it for you: you leave the teams you joined most recently, skipping any you captain, until you are within the limit. Only if that is not enough are teams you captain touched, newest first: each is handed to its longest-standing member, or closed if nobody else is on it.

Cancelling a web subscription keeps your plan until the end of the period you have paid for. Deleting your account is a separate, permanent action; see Support.

What are the Practical and Competition divisions?

Range Rivals sorts guns into two equipment divisions, Practical and Competition, taken from the core pistol and rifle divisions of the PCSL General Rulebook (version 2026-05-05). Every gun in your vault carries one, and you can change it any time. Competition boards are split by division, so you are ranked against gear like yours.

Practical

The everyday gun: what most people carry, train with, or shoot in a stock configuration.

• Pistols: iron sights or a slide-mounted dot, no frame-mounted optic; no compensator or ported barrel; magazines loaded to 20 rounds or fewer at the start signal; 9mm through .45 ACP, minimum power factor 125. Flashlights, lasers, magwells, and gas pedals are all fine.
• Rifles: 5.45x39 or 5.56x45 up through .308 / 7.62x51, no pistol-caliber carbines; any optics; magazines loaded to 30 rounds or fewer at the start signal, no coupled magazines; suppressors allowed, but no muzzle brake unless it is there to mount a suppressor; no bipods, bags, or other support devices; no lightened bolt carriers.

Competition

The race gun: anything built for pure speed.

• Pistols: compensators and ported barrels allowed; frame-mounted optics allowed; magazines loaded to 30 rounds or fewer at the start signal; 9mm through .45 ACP, no minimum power factor.
• Rifles: pistol-caliber carbines shoot here; 5.7x28, 5.45x39, 5.56x45, or 9mm up through .308 / 7.62x51; any optics; muzzle brakes and suppressors allowed; bipods and bags allowed.

Which one do I pick?

Not sure? Choose Practical. A Practical gun can always shoot up into a Competition entry, but a Competition gun can never enter Practical. That mirrors the PCSL rule: equipment that stops meeting Practical's criteria moves to Competition.

Range Rivals keeps only these two divisions. PCSL's Defensive divisions, its 10-round versions for magazine-restricted states, and its rimfire and shotgun divisions are not modeled, and the app does not check caliber, power factor, or velocity. Divisions are on the honor system: you set them, and your rivals trust them.

How do weekly challenges work?

Each week Range Rivals publishes challenges: one drill and one target to beat, whether a hit factor, a time, a score, or a number of attempts. Open a challenge in the app, run the drill, and log your attempts from inside it. Your progress toward the target updates as you go.

Weeks run Monday to Sunday and flip at one fixed moment for everyone, before dawn on Monday across the US (08:00 UTC), so a Sunday-evening range trip still counts toward the week you shot it. Finished challenges stay visible for four weeks so you can see how you did.

Challenges are free and open to every member. They are you against the target: challenge runs don't post to the drill leaderboards. Some challenges carry a sponsor's name.

How do competitions and team brackets work?

A competition runs a drill over a set window with its own leaderboards. Enter as an individual with the gun you will shoot, run the drill, and submit each attempt with a video of the run. A reviewer approves it before it counts. You get two attempts by default (organizers can allow more), and your latest approved run is the one that counts, not your best, so decide before you go again.

Teams enter through their captain in a duo or trio bracket. A team's roster holds up to four shooters for a duo or five for a trio, and when the captain enters they pick who is fielded and which division the team shoots in; that lineup is locked from then on. A team enters a competition once, and a shooter can be fielded in only one team entry per competition.

Every competition scores on boards split by bracket (individual, duo, trio) and by division (Practical, Competition), so you compete against teams of the same size using similar gear. Winners are chosen per board once the competition is complete, and prizes can be tied to a specific board.

Entering is free on every plan. Your plan only sets how many teams you can belong to: one on the free plan, five on Pro, ten on Ultra.

Can I create my own drills and stages?

Yes. Anyone can create a custom drill in the app: name it, choose its category and scoring, and log runs against it like any drill in the library. The free plan holds up to three active custom drills; Pro and Ultra have no limit. A private custom drill's leaderboard shows only you.

Stage layouts are drawn in the Stage Designer in the web dashboard, an Ultra feature: a to-scale bay with targets, steel, no-shoots, start positions, and your path through the stage. The mobile app shows every diagram in full, but drawing stays on the web.

Publish a drill with a designed stage and it appears in the community section of the drill library with your name on it, where any member can view the stage and log runs for free. Publishing is instant. Other members can report a stage, a person reviews every report, and we can take a stage down. You can unpublish your own stage at any time, and runs people already logged stay in their history.

Can I export my data?

Yes, on Pro and Ultra. Open Account in the web dashboard and download your complete training history as a CSV: every run with its date, drill, gun, time, score, hit factor, tags, and the challenge or range session it belonged to, ready for a spreadsheet.

The export covers everything you have logged, not just the last 30 days. Very long histories may be cut at a size limit, and the file tells you if that happened. If you plan to delete your account, export first: deletion is permanent and does not produce a copy.

Who can see my scores and profile?

Only signed-in Range Rivals members. Nothing about you is published on the open web.

Other members can see your username, display name, profile photo, and membership badge; your scores and rank on the leaderboards for library drills and community stages; your results in competitions you enter; your name and results in a range session, to the other people in that session; and the names and rosters of your teams. Your email address, your full gun vault, your private training history, and your notes are never shown to other members.

Every leaderboard has a global view and a friends-only view, and your name is always shown next to your score.

If another member is a problem, report a team from the leaderboards in the app or a community stage on the web; a person reads every report. Email support to block a member: you stop seeing each other everywhere in the app (friends, leaderboards, competitions, session invites), and they are not told.
