Hi
I would like to find out if my rifle meets your rules.
I was told that in your competitions the rifle is put on a table with a drawing with the allowed measurements.
Could anyone share it ?

Here is a link to the rule book. The NRA doesn't make it easy to find. HP and SB stock dimensions are the same. Lots of luck. Bu the way, it's a gig made of plastic, not a drawing. See attached picture. Not a real good view of what happens.

What rifle are you concerned about? If it is a off the shelf sporter-hunting rifle then there is a very good chance it will conform to the rules.

What game?
BPCR measures stock drop from the center of the bore. Must be 3/4" as I recall. Anyway, they have a jig for measuring this.

Centerline of barrel to underneath the forearm 2 1/4 inch max
Centerline of barrel to top of comb rise measured at the centerline (cheek rise) 1/2 inch min.

If you are building a rifle, I strongly recommend that you have it done by a rifle smith who is experienced in building silhouette rifles. There are many fine 'smiths out there, but not all of them have experience in combinations which make weight, comply with the rules, and will fit you for offhand shooting. Seek the advice of shooters at your club who are involved in silhouette. Most of them are likely to let you try their equipment and see what combinations fit your body type.

Thank you RBriscoe,
But the thing is, I live in Mexico, rules are not the same, but would like to go to the Nationals this year.
Kind regards,
