    Building a Thomas FT, need recommendations...

    I assume you’re shooting a class other than hunter. No stock adjustments are allowed during a match for hunter class. Swinging the hamster out of the way should result in a DQ.

    Time to combine Open and Hunter?

    Awwww, come on guys. Hunter class is just trying to unload those shooters that think they need more magnification. Won't anyone take them? On a more serious note, it appears neither the hunter class or the open class want to be combined with anyone (the original subject of this thread) or...

    Time to combine Open and Hunter?

    No, unlimited would still be their own unofficial class. The only change would be open would now allow seats/buckets and bipods. That would make it a truly “open” class where any combination of aids are allowed. It would give the hunter shooters that want higher magnification a place to go...

    RAW HM1000 Adjustable Butt Plate?

    I caught the part about you deciding to use your USFT in Hunter class. Welcome to hunter class BTW. The only reason I haven’t shot mine in open class is the same reason you are switching. I was gearing up to give open a try a year or two ago. But I decided I would rather be 4th out of 20 than...

    RAW HM1000 Adjustable Butt Plate?

    Would it make a difference if I told you my rifle was a mac1 hunter? I get why you connect a mac1 with “traditional“ FT. But I don’t see any rifle as restricted to any one class. If you ask Mike to make you a Thomas for hunter pcp it looks and performs exactly like the gun he makes for...

    RAW HM1000 Adjustable Butt Plate?

    Allowing for comfort and fit should definitely be factored into any rule. The part that defies logic is the argument by those proposing the rule is that it’s intended to limit participants to what they would use to hunt. I don’t know about you but I’ll hunt with what ever fits best and is most...

    Time to combine Open and Hunter?

    The only change needed is making bucket and sticks allowed in open class. That solves the magnification issue and brings Life back to the open class. Creating a new sub class or adding another class further fractures the small number of existing participants. we need fewer classes not more.

    RAW HM1000 Adjustable Butt Plate?

    I agree that there is a very vocal minority begging for the magnification increase. However I don’t see it as a complete inversion. There will be defections for sure, but my estimation is around 25%, at least here in Ohio. This year we’ve had right around 45 individuals shoot hunter pcp and...

    Time to combine Open and Hunter?

    I posted this on another thread about the new butt attachment rule change proposal, but also makes sense to be here too. There’s good news and bad news. The bad news is this topic is way past the “passing discussion” phase. It's a proposal that has already been submitted to the BOG. And the...

    RAW HM1000 Adjustable Butt Plate?

    There’s good news and bad news. The bad news is this topic is way past the “passing discussion” phase. It's a proposal that has already been submitted to the BOG. And the BOG intends to vote on it before the start of next years FT season. The good news is they have passed the news about...
