Thanks Maynard, I made corrections. Any truth you are considering jumping into F class ?

Yes I am moving to F Class in a few decades, after the CNIB issues my white cane:p I won't make it to Ottawa for Victoria Day this year, I will still be in Barbados shooting the West Indies Fullbore Championship.
 
So anyone can come with their long range rifle? Even say...an active CF sniper?

I believe you can, as long as your rifle isn't a .338LM (range not templated for it) and you do not have a muzzle brake installed (not allowed under F Class or TR rules)
 
Which I totally don't understand because we shot the C14 at connaught on my sniper course 2 years ago and we are shooting it there again for a week at the end of may.
 
Being a military range CF gets to do things that we civies cannot. We are guests on the range, and can't risk doing anything that would jeopardize that.

The only time I've seen 338s allowed to be used in competitions is during NSCC Sniper/Precision, and that was only because CF and RCMP had them and it needs to be fair. Either way the 338LM is bigger than 8mm, so it's technically over the limit for F-Class anyway.

Tom,
according to the other TR shooters I was chatting with, they said you'd have qualified for a white cane some years ago and you just "sound shoot" now :)
Enjoy Barbados!

Gord,

As long as I am still safe and get the shot off in the general direction of the target and hit it once in a while, life is good. Barbados will be interesting, the Brits have been there for at least a week now and will have already shot Jamacia and Antigua by the time we get to Barbados.
