Our goal is to attract more shooters at our club to eventually shoot 50/50 with us. People come out and try to shoot their rabbit hunting rifles with us at our 50/50 targets and they quickly find they are out classed and don't come back.
We would like to encourage these shooters to shoot with us and our custom rifles on a lesser level. We are considering the establishment of a "factory class" that would allow them to shoot their rabbit rifles along side of us with a simpler target. These will be scored and kept entirely separate and unofficial.
I would like to see rules for the rifles to be simple and easily understood so there is little room for cheating:
The rifle must have a factory action and a factory barrel and that's about it.
Stock alteration would be permitted or they can even change the stock but the stock shall not be over 3 inches in width.
Any scope would be legal.
Any trigger or trigger work would be acceptable.
There would be no weight limits.
The rest could be one piece or two piece with the same restrictions as our 50/50 Unlimited.
No restrictions on ammo.
The target would need some thought for sure. We might consider our 50/50 target and count the 9 and 10 ring as 10 and the rest as what they are.
I would like the comments, pro and con, of the competitive shooters and the beginning shooters alike who post here. We want to get this thing right.
