NRA Smallbore F-Class course of fire HELP!!!

[10XSHOOTER]

Small bore F-Class should be shot at 100 and 200 yds. Let the sling shooters shoot the Dewar course.

Then you will cut the number of ranges to less than half out there now. Most ranges don't have 200 yards.

Personally, I think it would be great to have an option to shoot 100/200, or even 300. Not a requirement, but an option, much like we have Midrange and Long Range. Not sure how the logistics would work, though.

That's NRL22 / smallbore PRS... they shoot that and further. I don't do tactical anything anymore after retiring from the U.S. ARMY !!

F-SBR is NOT metric prone...that's for conventional sling shooters shooting that COF. Yes, we (F-SBR) shoot on the metric targets. That doesn't mean we fall under Metric Prone !!

I can't understand why this is soo difficult !!

I don't either!
F-sbr is not it's own sport with a separate rule book.
Everything applies except what specifically doesn't.

Either section 7 applies to f-sbr cof or there are no cof rules(guidelines?) for f-sbr

You resist section 7 applying but provide no other possible option.


edit - I think that technically we do shoot metric prone, just with different rifle and equipment rules than the sling shooters.

Nahh...you know as well as I do, PRS and NRL are a completely different game. I'm talking slow fire prone at known distances on relatively tiny targets. Just stretching the distances out longer.

Not saying I'd like to see it replace 50Y/50M/100Y...just like to see a longer range game. F-sbr LR...

Our 8 matches for the 2018 season were approved by the NRA yesterday. Thanks for your help, everyone!

There is an F Class section in the rule book just like high power

Only rules specific to F-sbr are included in that section. All other rules follow NRA Smallbore Rifle rules. As discussed earlier in this thread, the actual courses of fire are described in Section 7. Also as discussed earlier, there is a typo in this section on the courses of fire, in that the A-26/A-27 targets should NEVER be used for F-sbr.

In FSB how many sighting shots are there?

 

[Mulligan]

5 pages! I think you all understand now why I posed this question.
The rules are not crystal clear...... and the NRA was not responsive to my inquires.
The information and conversation provided in this thread have been very helpful.
Thank you to all that weighed in on this.
Regards
CW
