The fiber optic bead will be fine.
I'm not current on ATA rules but isn't a scope like a red dot or Holosite not permitted unless the shooter has a visual impairment?
Only rule I can find in ATA regs on guns and ammo
50
F. GUNS AND AMMUNITION
Any shooter violating any of these Rules shall be disqualified from
competition in accordance with these Rules. Any such violator shall
be referred to the Executive Committee for possible further
disciplinary action.
A contestant cannot use:
1. A gun with a chamber larger than 12 gauge. Guns of smaller
gauges are permissible in registered and tournament shooting,
but no competitive consideration shall be given in recognition of
that fact for handicap and classification purposes. Only ammunition
provided by the ATA and purchased at the time of entry may be
used at, or during, the Grand American Tournament. A contestant
may not use a gun capable of chambering more than one gauge of
shells at the same time. For example, chambering 12 gauge and
20 gauge shells in the same gun at the same time is prohibited.
2. Loads that contain nickel or copper coated shot or tracer loads.
However, the use of lead, steel, bismuth, or other composite nontoxic
shot materials shall be allowed. Any gun club allowing shot
materials described in this Rule, other than lead, shall be required
to cover or shield all hard surfaces on trap fields which are known,
or reasonably believed, to cause pellet ricochet with material which
will prevent the shot pellets from rebounding and /or ricocheting.
3. Any load with a velocity greater than 1290 FPS (Feet Per Second)
with maximum shot charge of 1 1/8 ounces (31.89 grams), or 1325
FPS with a maximum shot charge of 1 ounce (28.30 grams), or
1350 FPS with a maximum shot charge of 7/8 ounces (24.80
grams), as measured in any individual shotshell. These velocities
are maximum and no individual shotshell shall exceed these limits
for the designated shot charge. In addition, no load containing more
than 1 1/8 ounces (31.89 grams) or any shot larger than Number 7
1/2 can be used. Shot charges are maximum and no charge may
exceed the charge amount by more than 3%.
4. Any shell loaded with black powder.
5. Shoot Management, ATA official(s) or any contestant may
challenge the load of any other contestant. Any challenge shall be
initiated so as to not disrupt the harmony of the shoot or interfere
with other contestants not involved with the challenge. On receipt
of a challenge management or ATA official(s) shall obtain a shell
or shells from the challenged party, and if after examination,
management or ATA official(s) find the contestant violated the ATA
rule, he/she may be disqualified. Any such initiated challenges,
determined to be abusive in nature, will be referred to the ATA
Executive Committee for disciplinary action.
