Greetings Mauser308, And target shooting is on a dead level range with targets at exact ranges. Plus you get sighters to correct for conditions. Went out with my son when he was shooting FTR at...

I don't where camo cloths as such but the one thing i find is covering up bare skin. A face mask is a must and even a old pair of crap thermals just to cover the bare legs. Even hunting on the farm...
