The NRAI website seems to be down. You can get the info your looking for here.

Also check this

BTW, from your posts and questions, you seem to be trying to find out what to choose in shooting as a sport and what to do about it.Is that correct?Best thing,IMHO, is to state clearly what is it that you want to do and start from there.You are not going to do much with that .30-06 or .22lr without being clear about what you are going to do with it in a competition.Once you state clearly what you want to do, it helps people to suggest what you require.

as for which rifle clubs? any one which has a 300+ range.
when you say long range it usually means 600m+ for which a 6BR [6mm] rifle is best suited.

I see that you are in Udaipur. May be it helps to ask at your nearest rifle association.
