Rules for Rimfire F-Class

Tried searching, but no luck:

Is there a standard set of rules for rimfire F-Class, or do clubs make up there own? I'm not interested in competing at the moment, but just want to practice to see what it's like.

Thanks.

Mike
 
They're in the smallbore rule book.

Just so you are looking in the right place, it is Page 66 of the rulebook, which is the 72nd page of the document.

Does anyone shoot these at 200 yards?
 
We shoot ours at 50 meters and 100 yards on the metric targets. That's pretty challenging when the wind is really blowing. 200 yards would definitely be humbling.
 
Yes NRA rules for smallbore F Class shoot at 50 yards, 50 meters and 100 yards. All targets are Metric.
 
GOOD NEWS for some of us old guys. I started practicing fclass w/22LR as an expediency, then discovered that 308 recoil was more than I could handle 160 rds. BUT I will say the slightest mistake and you can see the 22 bullet corkscrew toward target. if that happens, don't even look in spotting scope.
U are correct, I compete w/myself also. Man that is a long drive for me to Blue Eye, Arkansas.
Been working on this for 4 yrs with my 52D modified.

My local club (WBBSC http://www.wbbsc.com/) dabbled with this a bit last year.
Took a bit to get the correct targets for shooting at 100 yards.
As some had/have issues with seeing the holes on the NRA target. We even experimented with a target we made being a reverse of the NRA target.
Black rings on buff paper background. Which people liked, but is not the approved target. We are hoping feedback might be given back to the NRA for possible change to a target like this. (Similar to the NBRSA and IBS style targets.)

Plans are to hold a regular Small Bore F-Class league once a month during Spring-Summer-Fall of this year.
It is hoped that this takes off with a regular group of participants.
And possibly even a sanctioned/approved match or more.

But this is under a "provisional" set of rules with the NRA at the time being. We'll have to see what if any changes are made years from now.
 
Jefferson County Gun Club (Pine Bluff Arkansas) shoots this match every first Saturday of the month.

we are shooting .22 rimfire F-class at 200 yds using the MR-52 high power target ( 600yd reduced for 200) about a MOA Xring.

That looks great!


And from the looks of the pictures on your website, it looks very popular!
Yes, f-class rimfire is an official competition by the Spanish shooting federation at 100m, also 50m for club's competitions and 200m as exhibition competition. F-class air at 50m step by step.......
