I'm fairly new to this sport and this will be my first competition. I'm unsure of which category I should join.

I have a Remington 700 in .223.

Assuming you are talking F-Class; if you have a factory rifle and its' total weight (rifle, scope, mounts and bipod) are less than 12 lbs, consider the Factory Category that we have in this shoot. Come out, have some fun and learn lots.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone that made this possible. I'm very new to this kind of shooting and this was my first competition and I had a blast today!

Look forward to it again next year!

This was a great day out but some odd weather - some frost, some wind, some sun and some snow LOL! Real nice to catch up with some old faces and meet some new ones. Thanks to Match Director, Range Officers and everyone else who contributed to putting on such a good event.

 

[308BAR]

To echo the previous post a big THANKS to the match directors and RO for organizing. Great group of people shooting, great talking with all and thank to all for showing me around, and passing on some awesome shooting knowledge.

If anyone reading this thread is thinking of try out F-class for the first time. Do it! You'll never meet a more passionate bunch and you won't regret it.

Here are some photos of the competition:

I heard that there were a few phantom gusts of wind that showed up every now and then.

I'm glad the match went well and I wish I could have attended!
