So I know quite a few that do long rifle competition reload do most prs type matches allow you to collect your brass after a stage?

The real truth is something in between. In local and smaller matches, I usually head home with most of my brass. When at larger matches, I am lucky to head home with 50% of my brass. And I try to pay attention and be there when brass is thrown on the table at the end of the day. And I try to pick up my brass right after shooting a stage, when possible. But there are often so many stages with movement and barricades like rocks and things where policing my brass is not possible after shooting the stage.

I see people post up all the time that they end up with 95% of their brass on average and just do not know how they accomplish that without catching it as it is ejected (not very practical or realistic for these matches).
 
I will usually help others in the squad to police the brass, and they usually reciprocate.I end up missing a few pieces at the end of the day though. If Im using the Lapua brass, I mark the cases in a unique way so its easy to pick out of the pile at the end of a stage, it definitely helps me get as much back as possible.
