There are a lot of good reasons to allow range finders in a separate class. Posting ranges skunks those who want the additional traditional challenge. WFTF coordinates over many countries which restricts change. The challenge for change/inclusion will be more of a cultural challenge against...

Cole is on it, the USFT is inherently and intentionally asymetrical to "fill into" your voids allowing the shooter to make a natural hold with the least amount of tension. Essentially at rest. Loosing up all the adjustments and finding the positions that are most natural to you and your shot...

Hey Hopsing, missed you in BattleMountian Oregon Airgun $599 and they throw in a bubble level.

Big Athlon fan Started with one Athlon Optics Helos BTR GEN2 6-24x56 in Hunter Field Target. Ranging becomes very soft from 45 to 55 yds at 16x. Now have three HERAS SPR 15-60×56 SFP MOA, snaps into focus for 45-55 yds even at 15x which is marked. One ARES ETR UHD 15-60×56 BLR1 SFP IR MOA...

This. Many have learned their range policing from field sergeants barking orders, waiting to spring on the faintest whisp of safety concern and then feel like they are doing a great job in the duty of safety. We are not wearing ear protection and are not fond of being yelled at or yelling at...

Hard no on digital levels. Besides being not allowable in many shooting disciplines there is no way to know if your calibration has reset to factory default or shifted for some other reason. Gravity makes the bubble level consistent, when you line up the vertical reticle splitting the bore...

Off for now , Thanks

Cloud flare is on again, blocking many legacy browsers, bad for users. There is a reason why massive retailers like Amazon refuse to use cloudflare, they don’t want to limit access which could only decrease sales

Targets that require interaction with terrain and obstacles are my favorites, using the character of the venue weather it is boulders, cactus, grass for trees it brings diversity to the exercise sometimes requiring a modified approach-fun. It is less fun to shoot in graded lots with no...

Prior to match start each HFT competitor aims at a 1 foot by 1 foot target with 1 inch grid. A digital photo is taken of grid at the eyepiece beside the scope- 1x. Locking the camera settings a second photo of the grid is taken through the scope set at 16x. Crop the 16x photo to the nearest...

Hit a local match and ask some shooters to let you take a look through their scopes, most will be glad to help. Your eyes will let you know where the value is, not the abundance of internet opinions. If you can't see it don't take someone's word for it, inspect. Bad news is when you look...

Yes
