    Yes there is an official class for it in NZ but compared to TR, F-TR, or F open it's not a world recognized class, just like the hunter class it's been introduced to try get more people into the sport using rifles they already own.
    It's effectively just F class with a few changes (barrel length, bipod etc), set up in such a way that F open rifles can't be used so that more "PRS" orientated rifles can be competitive.

    Either way the class is such that there is a very wide range of rifles that can be used with no one setup/trend being clearly better.
    If I were building a rifle for this class I would base it on what other types of shooting I was going to do with the rifle.
