Hi all new to this site. I shoot F-Class standard and love it. Below comps are what I've been craving for a long time.

AUSTRALIA South East Queensland / North East NSW - Training Partner for Practical Field Shooting Competition

I will be participating in Practical Field Shooting Team Challenge:
Please email me for competition details.
in New Zealand at the end of May and am looking for locals (AUSTRALIA South East Queensland / North East NSW) to shoot and train up with some abstract Practical Field Shooting. But if the person/s are into the practical scene and wants to bounce idea's off of / criticise technique / build ideas / challenge, then that works for me too.

I'll check in from time to time but Please
immelmannix@yahoo.com.au and I'll be in touch.
Greg

We've got the posters for NZ up in our local ssaa clubhouse. Looks fun but too far away for me. What rifle do you use for f class and what are you taking?

greg,
please don't associate the word gunslinger with fclass.
we do not need the public perception that goes with this.
also the types of thing you are shooting are unrelated to our sport.
possibly some of the snipers websites might suit your ideals better.
keep safe,
bruce.

Hi OuttaAmmo, those flyers were put up by me, I've just moved. I use a Sako TRG with a factory bipod for F-Std and also will be taking it to NZ.

Long Range Precision Shooting is very challenging whether it be on metal gong reactive targets in the field or like 'belly benchrest' shooting at scoring rings.

Bruce, I'll try and edit my first post here to be more media / public friendly. I understand about the haters.

Really Bruce, I think we create our own divisions in this sport with comments like that. This maybe an Fclass site, but I don't think we need to banish all other forms, after al the "sport" is shooting, not Fclass alone.

Sounds interesting Greg, do you shoot at Belmont? If we could cross over for a yap somewhere you might peak my interest.

jasmay,
it is not this sport, and we are not gunslingers.
we do not want the public or politicians to think we are.
keep safe,
bruce.

I guess I am talking off topic now, and maybe a new thread will pop up, but.

Bruce, why would you want to distance yourself from other shooters? I don't!!

What about Service Rifle (bad military weapons)

Cowboy action (sounds a bit loutish)

Tactical rifle (wow, that's big scary stuff)

Your right we should slam a wedge between all disciplines, there is no point in supporting all shooting sports, after all Fclass is the biggest,, ummmm??!!!

jasmay,
go ahead and promote yourself as a gunslinger to the public, and we can all go down with you.
an alternative would be to promote hell out of what we have and grow that in a way more acceptable to the public.
keep safe,
bruce.
