Classification

So I shot my first ever competition Saturday. 600 yards and it was F open because it was my 6.5 creed coyote rifle. I did this 194-6x, 198-11x, and 194-6x. Total 586-23x. What would the classification be? Aside from last place!

97.6% would be Master. Your first 120 gets you an official classification. Shoot a 591 on your next match and you will get a HighMaster classification.

Good shooting!
 
Great shooting, especially for your first time out. I started in March of 2017, F-Class Target Rifle (FTR). Was hooked after the first match. Rifle was basically a stock Remington 700 except for the trigger and chassis. Today it looks nothing like what I stared with. I made HM last year. When you get that rating it feels really good.
You will get there much faster starting with the right, or better equipment.
Welcome to the insanity,,, I mean fun.

Good shooting!!...keep the hammer down.
 
Can you give a brief description of both as both are shot prone? Or at least the main difference.

The fundamental difference is prone with just a sling(and coat)
or prone with support (bipod or rest)

F-class is considerably 'easier' but the target is half the size so the standard is actually lower.


edit-most people call what the NRA calls 'prone' 'sling' which is probably what I should have put.
