    F T/R Competition 215g berger Hybrid

    My kid was on the Michigan f class team she used the 215 berger but with a CBI barrel with only .090 free bore it worked if you look at scores she shot quite well with that setup. Her barrel likes the 185 juggernaut better for shooting small groups but the 215's worked well enough. Her next...

    F T/R Competition Which Stock for small stature

    My daughter is going to be shooting f tr class this summer and she is very small, small hands and short arms. She really likes shooting a HS precision standard stock that is on her savage rifle that she shoots alot prone. This stock does not seem like a good choice for a dedicated f class rig...

    Rifle Scopes Do I have a scope problem

    Re: Do I have a scope problem I have never heard of that, yes it is turret mount parallax. thanks for that info. She says she has just been going up and down as she shoots at different distances 100 to 800 yds. The scope movement itself has been great as far as elevation markings go.
