Can someone explain the difference between the NRA National Records on High Power Rifle Long Range F-T/R Class and the Individual Fullbore Prone F-Class?
F-T/R vs Fullbore??
- Thread starter FTRinTexas
- Start date
in FULLBORE, you usually fire 2 or more to the target!!
HOWEVER, when the rules were written in the US, string fire was OK'd for FULLBORE - at the MATCH DIRECTORS choice-
i don't know about 3,5,600 yd, but the 8,9 and 1000 records[both f-t/r & f-open were set firing 2 to the mound!
FWIW i don't know what will happen when a "stringiee' sets a 'FULLBORE' RECORD. i can't see any 'self-respecting' shooter claiming a record.
personnally, i think the rule should be changed. OR WHY HAVE A FULLBORE CAT. IF YOUR SHOOTING LIKE HIGHPOWER - EH, HIGH POWER COMMITTEE???

I was thinking that they were listed under both so F-Class could be fired during either and not making it so difficult to find an NRA match that shoots F-Class.
JERRY AND MIKE,
that's what i said, 'string' fire at the direction of the MD. according to the gent who put it in - because in US folks aren't finiliar with shooting 2 or 3 to the mound.
TELL ME FOLKS, do they shoot string fire at SPIRIT OF AMERICA matches? if not why not - if it's the same??
when are we going to get our 2 ends wired together?
why do we have a dual standard in f- class?? [i know - 'dark side', yada, yada.]
mike - that was not the reason
F'ERS - if you want to shoot 'true fullbore' come up to the north west and shoot the PNW INTERNATIONAL F-CLASS FULLBORE MATCHES.
