Excellent concept. It dovetails perfectly with our own local FV200/FV250 C/F formats.

Re: Rimfire F-Class/ High Power practice match
I hope that you get credited with a new class of competition.
A southeast U.S. league while the Bermuda High is running would be outstanding.
Having the range face east or west, of course.

Re: Rimfire F-Class/ High Power practice match
Our local range only shoots traditional rimfire matches. Too boring for me.
I have been practicing F class with my .22 RF with a 1000 yard target downsized for 100. Mostly I shoot the .22 at 200 yards, but I think the first method shows me where I stand better. There is a 1000 yard practice match this weekend so maybe I will find out. They always pick the two hottest days of the year. Why I don't know.

Re: Rimfire F-Class/ High Power practice match
I think it is a great idea, and a way for people to get involved and get their feet wet in f class. It might not bring the top tier people to the practice match, but it will give the average shooter the needed practice and trigger time. Great idea, I would love to get involved in something like that.

Re: Rimfire F-Class/ High Power practice match
For those in South Texas that were wanting to get into these type of matches the South Texas Marksmanship Training Center holds a mini palma/F-class match on the third saturday of each month at Blackhawk range in Atascosa county. The main difference seems to be that they limit your sighters. I haven't been able to make it out to a match yet, but I'm hoping to shoot one soon. I think it will be a good way for beginners like me to get their feet wet shooting matches and should help me work on my shooting until I can afford an F-class setup.

Great idea, I might be able to get some of the luddites at my local club to give that a try.

Re: Rimfire F-Class/ High Power practice match
We have been shooting this match once a week for the past month. The heat has been a killer. Normally wind isn't a good thing, but it has given us some relief. We shot the match completely at 200 this week. It seems to be the magic distance where the wind has slightly more affect than the inconsistency in ammo. We throw some deer brats or burgers on the grill while we shoot and usually hang out for a bit after the match to check out each others rifles.
There are a variety of rifles at the match:
CZ 455/Manners, Custom 40X/McMillan, Anschutz 64MPR, 10/22/Shilen, Savage Mark II, Kimber 82, AR's with dedicated 22LR uppers, etc.

Re: Rimfire F-Class/ High Power practice match
We've been shooting a 100 yard prone rimfire match for a bit now and it's a hoot. We were supposed to shoot our first 200 yard match today, but it fell through due to weather. We're gonna give it another try, though.
Although I have a pretty nice benchrest rifle (semi custom built on a 40X action), I was planning to shoot the match with my 10/22. I was anticipating a good bit of wind, due to the weather. I figured that I'd wait for a favorable condition and unload, while all of the bolt gun guys were reloading and trying to get their shots in.
Hey, it's a strategy.
