Top Ten Reasons to Shoot F-Class

[Steve Blair]

I posted this eight years ago, but it's worth another shot.

The top ten reasons to use a scope and shoot F-Class

#10 – You can’t see the front sight anymore.
#9 – It’s too damned hot to put on the sweatshirt and coat.
#8 – Even a Palma rifle is too heavy to hold up long enough to shoot.
#7 – The only thing you can tolerate around your arm is a blood pressure cuff.
#6 – You don’t have to shoot with those smug sling guys anymore.
#5 – You enjoy being treated like a second class citizen.
#4 – Your gunsmith forgot to turn the muzzle end for the sight.
#3 – The occasional scope whack helps keep you awake.
#2 – You can actually see the target when you shoot.

And the #1 reason…
#1 – It looks like some damn fool put an MR-65 center on your LR target.

(cause no one told you, you could shoot long range while seated)

11. You don’t like your rifle enough to hold onto it with both hands.

 

[F Class John]

For the people you meet and the friends you make…

 

[Downeast]

12. Since you are already laying down it is easier to take a nap.

 

[Elwood]

No 13, I have far to much money and F class helps balance that out.

14. Because load development is a heckuva lot less involved than dry fire practice.

 

[Sandstorm]

Because you have all the time in the world.

 

[Ned Ludd]

15. You're severely masochistic, and the 2 MOA 10-ring just isn't generating the same "thrill" any longer.

 

[Immike]

Because the wife is home all day.

Great Post , OP . Had me laughing as I read each one . And the whole topic is becoming sadly true for many of us . Much to my disdain .

 

[PracticalTactical]

Because you have nothing better to do with $30,000 per year.

 

[B Nettesheim]

Definitely #9

It’s a lot cheaper than golf. Especially when every projectile is single use.
