Muzzle Brakes HVY Class

[halfmoanut]

I wonder why a muzzle brake can't be used on a rifle in the heavy class, isn't it unlimited weight,and specified as unlimited class,this rule eliminates the use of one gun being able to be used in both classes,alot of guys can't afford to have two of these expensive rifles,and when the brake is removed it changes the harmonics of the barrel and tune of a load.Why was this rule made?

Earlier this season, an IBS long range rule change was proposed that would allow you to use your legal light gun in heavy gun for just that reason. As I saw the proposed new rule, you would have to use the gun in HG in exactly the same form it was used in LG. Does anyone know if that proposal will be voted on at the annual meeting?
Thanks

I was planning on attending the IBS meeting on Saturday. How would I go about getting this started? I will ask up at the meeting,but if I could start now it would be a plus.
