Re: F-Class Nationals will only be at 1000 Yards
Here's a silly question from a sling-and-irons shooter who has no dog in the fight (heck, for conventional prone shooters, there is no mid-range championship, only a long-range one: 1000 yards only, other than the Palma days)
What's wrong with a trigger pulling contest? Why is that a derogatory term? I can certainly understand wanting to have an F-class Long Range championship, focusing on the range where there's the most separation in the scores. But there's also something to be said for the "easy" stages that so brutally punish mistakes, even if the outcome matters less to the total aggregate. (If the top shooters are all clean or nearly so, a 9 is a much more serious mistake than when everyone's dropping points)
So, I can see the arguments either way, and, like I said, I have no dog in that fight... but why the disdain for "trigger pulling contests"?
