    There are now two division of shooting long to 1000 yards and the other longer to 1760 yards .One can pick either both or one devision to compete in .
    Gimp I am in agreement on the casual versus a timed string of shots under pressure even if your own trying to asses and vanquish the conditions as you see them .I prefer to shoot as a team with one other to talk aboutwind , mirage and hits or misses .The pressure change the ball game for sure and I have gone from hero to zero more than once and back again .
    One doesnt need the most fancy gear to compete but it does help although in the second to last contest Andy off this forum won with great wind judgement and shooting out to 1000 yards with his Tikka 6.5x55 as mentioned earlier on .
    Deffinatly different than a casual shoot and barbq with beers
