Skeet,
What form of BR would you be competing in with a .30 BR Railgun? Group, Score?

Skeet what I was getting at is that the .30 BR as accurate as it is, it is predominantly a "score" caliber. Equally a Rail is of little use in score, even non registered club matches you are at a disadvantage to use a rail, if even allowed. The only place you would use a rail is in a group tournament where the .30 BR is not the "go to" chambering.

There is no class for an "Unlimited" gun in score shooting. That would be a lot of "knob and wheel twisting".

thanks for the info. To be honest the real reason i asked about this is because i am thinking real hard about doing a 30x47L for groundhog shoots but i have also kicked the idea around of just doing another 30BR and keeping my life a bit more simple. I have a Brux 1.250 17twist barrel that i will be using for one of these chamberings. I am always thinking and i had the thought that if i stay with the 30BR i could always use the barrel on a rail gun that i am saving my pennies for, but i didn't know if a rail would take that kind of recoil. I just didnt know! I always feel better about spending money if i can have multipurpose uses for whatever i am buying or doing. In this case, i could use the 30Br barrel for the two groundhog shoots we have each year and i could use the same barrel on a rail gun once i have one. Basically just thinking out loud again. I have a strong feeling that i am going to do the 30x47L anyway so this is a non issue. However if i were to have a big old 1.250 30BR i sure wouldnt be afraid to shoot it on a rail gun event if it was shooting well. My current best agging rifle is a 30BR. maybe that's because i spend more time with the 30's than anything else? I do have a new Leonard/ Dave Bruno 6ppc that i have very high hopes for, so this statement may not hold true for very much longer. i have had time to go shoot the rifle yet so i cant say. I do like those 30's!!!!!!! Lee
