@Douger I don’t know Nate well, but I know him to be a hunter. He shoots well offhand. If you watch his videos he’s mostly hunting or reviewing a gun he’s used for a while (at least the ones I watch). In his AGN posts it seems he post hunting videos and discusses using and modifying airguns primarily for hunting purposes. I’m sure if you asked him why he competed in that class he may answer your questions. He’s a pretty cool guy.

To be honest, I asked the same thing. It seems to me that one’s level of experience and confidence has something to do with which class you enter. It would be great to get some clarification on that point. I would think that the event’s facilitators would not let a pro compete against the new guys, at least I hope they wouldn’t
. That would be horribleUpvote 0
When buddy got tired of loading pellets one-by-one, he must’ve thought “eff it,” and just dumped out the entire tin over the mag, I thought, “hmmm. There’s an interesting strategy.” When he did it with the second mag I smiled. Then when he set his elbow in the pile of pellets and started shooting, I couldn’t help but laugh. I can only imagine the pressure of hearing other competitors already shooting after I was only able to load 4-5 pellets into the first mag.

Hmmm perhaps you are referring to field target, where shooters walk around a course shooting at steel knock-down targets from various positions. I've got footage of that too. Keep an eye out next week.

Hey guys, I was in the Sportsman class this year. I'm not sponsored and have never place 3rd or higher. Now, I'll be registering in the Pro class for all speed competitions.
Thanks Michael for all your great coverage!

No, I mean air rifle silhouette, just like smallbore silhouette, high-power silhouette, and lever-action silhouette.

"Speed silhouette" and "benchrest silhouette" are recent spin-offs of metallic silhouette which has been around since the 1950's.
