F-class shooting along side XTC Highpower?

[Keith Glasscock]

I have been appointed as F-class discipline chairman at my local rifle club. At the same time, we have a new Highpower chairman. We had a discussion the other night and came up with a plan. Neither of us knows if it will work right (provided we have enough F-class shooters), but we are going to give it a try. Here goes:

Our club has dual pits. They are 100 yards apart and both are accessable, via protected road, during live fire. As a result, shooters can, and do, shoot both 200 and 300 yards at the same time.

The match would look like this:
Highpower shoots 200 yard standing while F-class shoots 300 yards against the MR-63 and f version as appropriate.
F-class then retires to the pits to pull and score for the rapid fire strings - this is to speed up the process.
F-class and Highpower (XTC) shooters shoot together for 600 yards slow-fire prone.
F-class (and Highpower if they want a 1000 agg.) shoot another 600 yard string.
If the Highpower (XTC) shooters are not doing a 1000 point match, perhaps they would be so kind as to return the favor of pulling targets so all of the F-class shooters could shoot the same relay or at least finish up quickly.

Lastly, we would have a combined awards presentation.

What does everyone think? Has anyone tried this before?

Thanks,
Keith

Seems like tour plan will work. My club on the other hand runs two day matches. XTC on Sat and 600 prone on Sun. We get a lot of XTS shooters for a 600 yd prone match.

Sounds like a great plan and the fact that 200 and 300 can be shot at the same time is what makes it work.

In our club the F-classers only get shoot one 600 for record during the XTC matches. The 200 and 300 are just to warm up and sight in, because of the rapid fire stages.
It kinda sucks for us F-classers, but any time on the range is better than none.
