For me the real issue here is why does the NRAA still want to control what bullets are being used ??
They dropped the "bullet tax" and charged us more to cover the loss and then still tell us what we can use. Once the bullet tax went, the ICFRA projectile rules should have been adopted.
The Board is there to look after the Shareholders interest, the Shareholders are the STA's. The STA's need to get together and tell the Board they want (for example to go with less the 156 grains as per ICFRA). There has been a few changes of late that didn't follow the correct process.

Yep, thanks Matt, I thought that was the case but then when I looked at the website there was no indication of it.

Poor effort really, would take a few minutes at most to remove the site or at least put up a notice.

Oh well, as Ned and Bruce would say..... such is life. :) :-" :roll:

VRA wrote:The VRA Council has approved the use of any lead core,
non-monolithic, projectiles up to 156grain for F STD and TR for any VRA approved competition as of 17th January
2022 up until 31st December 2022.
This will also apply for the 2022 VRA Queens event.

Good move. Will other STAs follow?

Let's hope so.

Surely if the ICFRA rule reads to the effect of "any projectile under 156gn", then our local rules should match.
