    I don't even compete.
    I just take whatever calibre and shoot for practice and confirm my drops. you do have to have a scope that dials well though, and be fairly well on the money. theres no shooting from the hip. I shoot with the guys but I don't obey the rules as such. (I suppose I could fit under f-class rules. but for me its my personal standards im trying to improve not compete, its hunting practice)
    its great to talk to the guys, and have a place that is basicly an approved long range, range.

    you want each shot to be a bulls eye or the next ring out (v or 5 ring) to be competitive. but just do your best, practice makes perfect etc.

    F class is an arms race. Special calibres etc. FTR is better cos its either 308 or 223
    as for a score, in FTR a 50 is good, and with a lot of V bulls its even better.
