I am a Fclass guy and have problems with glasses fogging up. I don't know if it is from shooting prone. I keep trying different glasses.
Happened to me about a month ago.But it only takes one bad primer or bad case.
Quit wearing wrap-arounds. They provide good protection to the sides but are terrible about fogging up and shooting on the line the greatest danger is from your rifle, not from the guy beside you.I am a Fclass guy and have problems with glasses fogging up.

Use a glycerin soap like Neutrogena, couple of swipes on both sides of the lens then polish with a soft rag. No more fog!I am a Fclass guy and have problems with glasses fogging up. I don't know if it is from shooting prone. I keep trying different glasses.
I agree with the Too much Gov. part but this is about being SMART & SAFE all at once.I am not an F class guy but I am shooter. First off load properly and know what your loads do in hot temps. Quit trying to get an extra5 fps. It's my business and responsibility to decide if I wear safety glasses. Don't "big brother me". I am already over run with that from all divisions of the govt. We are adults we can decide what risks we are willing to incur. I have much more fear traveling on the highways to a shoot than having the type of accident your talking about. You decide what makes you feel safe and I will decide for myself what I need to do. Get your mommy state mentality out of our sport.
It is going to take rule change. To protect shooters from themselves. That means me too. Just my two cents Tommy McJust watched video on bulletin and cant for the life of me understand why PRS shooters dont wear safety glasses ? is not cool? I have had 2 rounds pierce primers in my f/tr guns and thankfully had eye protection on .
Your last sentence is the American way. We make our own decisions accepting the rewards or consequences, our choice.I agree with the Too much Gov. part but this is about being SMART & SAFE all at once.
Over my tenure of shooting, about 45 years I have only popped 2 primers with no effect, but have seen others with proven safe loads that did significant damage to guns and glasses, not to mention small cuts and burns to their cheeks. I never used to wear any now after seeing a gent next to me have his glasses peppered with metal I wear each and every time I shoot.
But hey to each their own.
Sorry, had to quote you because your username and this thread just go together.I don’t think this thread should be taken as an attack if you choose not to wear safety glasses. I also believe in the freedom to make your own decisions.That being said as you get older you are constantly reminded getting through life can be like walking through a minefield. This usually occurs to you by observing cataclysmic events that happen to others. Most of us feel terrible for those others but can do nothing to change the outcome for them A little reminder to mitigate the risk can go a long ways. I will be looking into getting a pair of glasses for shooting.
NRA has already made the rule change - all competitive shooters shall wear safety eye wear in NRA Sanctioned events and competitions. As of early this year.It is going to take rule change. To protect shooters from themselves. That means me too. Just my two cents Tommy Mc
