Don't outspend them, but out work em!

I can attest for JEFFPPC's match count, I don't shoot their winter match's
due to winter road conditions, but come May to October, I shoot about
13 match's with him. And note.....quite a few of these he's doing registrations
setting and pulling targets, then doing the scoring. After all that, he normally
walks off with the prize money !! :cool:

I'd just like to thank all the folks like Jeff. The guys who month in and month out do the heavy lift to get matches done. Without you guys running things there would be no matches.

Thank you!!!
 
Depends on the discipline. There are
For F Class (and I assume benchrest, which I don't do formally):

Winners tend to:
-have a naturally curious/scientific mindset.
-shoot a lot
-have exceptional rifles

To win consistently, I think you need all three. An exceptional rifle is spendy, but it doesn't have to be crazy like a lot of guys go for. The rest isn't so expensive. Just ammo components.

For sling/xtc:

Just shoot a lot. A LOT. You can have garbage equipment and zero load development and win if you just practice a lot.

and it helps to have a range in your back yard or at work…..

Ugly yes, but garbage...no. It has got to be very good equipment too, in BR. But I think I agree with you in principle. A good gun with a great shooter can very well beat a great gun in the hands of a mediocre shooter.

I was exaggerating. You can dominate sling with a rifle that’s totally uncompetitive in f class though. I mean, someone can. Not me . I couldn’t win an XTC match with a laser.
