    Many states in the South are similar. There's only one range within 300 miles of me that goes to 1k and it is only open to civilians for NRA highpower matches.

    Maybe people realize that neither F-class nor tactical matches really provide any benefit other than in the sport Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk

    I shoot F-class and they allow brakes at the matches I go to. I've never seen anyone try to load from a magazine even though 90% of the field uses rifles with mags. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk

    His analogy is just so off. It is like saying that mustangs aren't allowed to ever drag race because they aren't top fuel dragsters. Maybe if F class was named "No tactical, only belly benchrest" he would be closer. But he is equivocating the exclusive naming of "top fuel" with an inclusive...

    I've mentioned it twice. It is a relevant thing to bring up when people say that tactical rifles have no place in F class. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk

    I'm not twisting anything. You made a bad analogy. F class didn't start out with the rifles that are used now. I don't care what you call the "mustang" division. My point is they are so close in what they do, that a new division is more appropriate than a new event altogether. Either way, I...

    I don't care what it is called. What I'm concerned with is if it will be held monthly with the F class matches. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk

    To add to your analogy though... Imagine if over 50% of the cars that "compete" against the dragsters are mustangs. AND it used to be all mustangs 10 years ago. It isn't unreasonable for there to be a mustang division. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk

    Partially. I had coaching when I competed in air rifle and trap shooting. Where I am now is I compete monthly in F class and IDPA. When I say breathing, I'm also including everything involved in the focus and holding the max stability before the shot. This becomes subconscious and a non...

    I shoot 20", but that is unreasonably short for a limit. 24" would be fine. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk

    I came in with my experience from shooting bipod prone and it took all of 5 minutes to get an unsupported prone position down. The unsupported prone has its own problems for new shooters. What shooters need to learn first is breathing and trigger control. Positions can be taught later. Sent...

    As long as they are competing against each other, who cares what targets they use? Brad Sauve won with a tactical rifle. Was his rifle impractical? Was it just luck? Tactical rifles can do fine at 1k, it just takes better wind skills than current TR rifles. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337...

    F T/R Competition New F-Class Division

    Using a Harris bipod, you still have to learn how to get into a stable position. I competed in 10 meter air rifle for several years and it is ENTIRELY about getting a stable shooting position prone and standing. It is boring. Bipods and optics don't make the rifle any less practical and you...

    Yeah, the positioning is harder in F class, but you have to shoot tighter groups. If positional difficulty determined marksmanship, then maybe we should all train by shooting .50 BMG standing. Prone without a bipod is an unnecessary position to learn. I do agree that F class is moving in a...
