FTR more demanding than F Standard ????

It’s probably more of a question as to which class you want to shoot in. F standard or F Open. F Standard is graded ie A and B grade, therefore new shooters can start in B grade and work their way up to A grade. F Open is ungraded, so you get to play with the big guys straight away.

Hi Mick, I tend to agree with Williada. Also, with travelling etc to PMs , I would prefer to shoot more often with less rounds than to shoot less often with more rounds. Hope that makes sense.

Hi Copper, my apologies if my comments have offended you, however, in your first post you stated that you had to push them all out, I therefore had visions of quite a number of stuck cases being pushed out. You then advised that there were 4 in total, two of which were at the Butts, in which case I ...

Competition or not, if cases have to be pushed out with a cleaning rod, then something is wrong and prudence would suggest finding out why before, as you say, having to push them all out. Just saying.

Question, if you were getting stuck cases, why did you continue shooting them? And why were you allowed to continue shooting them? Stuck cases usually indicate a pressure problem.

Hi Buckshot, generally I’ve found that most high magnification scopes aren’t at their best at the highest power and cheap high magnification scopes can be very poor. Magnifications above 40 power required a good clear day to be of much use and the higher the magnification the lower the field of view...

Couple of questions re the Sightron, what magnification was it set on? at what distance was the target? Was the reticle adjusted for you eye? Was the scope focussed correctly? Was there much mirage ?

Personally I think you would be better off to pick up a 2nd hand Sightron. For the money they are a very good scope, can’t say the same for any Nikko Stirlings I’ve seen in the past.

I would suggest a 10-50 or 8-32 with 1/8 clicks, fine cross hairs and .125 centre dot.

300. Zero 500 yards. 5 minutes 600 yards. 8 m 700 yards. 12m 800 yards. 17 m 900 yards. 21 m 1000 yards 26m These are a rough guide and will vary depending on your sight radius etc. These should get you on target. If you’re in metres then I’m sure someone else will advise. I’m also sure someone will...

Ok, advertiser hasn’t updated his ad.

There was one advertised on here a few days ago

I stand to be corrected but I think later model 300s take a Omark trigger.

Barry Davies will know.
