...in competitions? Or would I as a beginning shooter be competing in the exact same 'class' as those with years or decades of experience and skill?
I've shot ATA trap and NSCA sporting clays,both of which classify shooters into about 6 skill levels) competitively but nave never even seen a long-range BR competition.
BTW I built a .25-284 hunting rifle decades ago and spent lots of time at Ben Avery's benches shoooting loads for it. I recall how much I enjoyed that, so I'm fantasizing about 1000-yard competition.
