Aafta Hunter class gun rules

Are knee risers allowed in Hunter class? I know they would have to be fixed and there's a 6" limit from the barrel center, but it's not clear to me if the 6" is for a stock or if a riser is allowed. Also, are adjustable butt plates allowed?



A riser would be considered part of the forend.

You can have an adjustable riser on your rifle in AAFTA Hunter Division, as long as it is set to be no greater than 6" below the bore-line, and you cannot change the adjustment during the match. In addition to that, you can also have up to 2" of additional riser pad on your knee.

If you need to go higher, you can use a unattached-bipod/sticks, and it must rest on the ground (not on your knee).
