[QUOTE="Spartans, post: 757521, member: 63304"] Newbie here and hello to all, It's been a LOOONG time since I owned a rifle. Back in my teenage years, I went chuck scalping with a 22-250 any chance I got. And then life and wife took over... Anywho...fast forward to today. I'm semi retired and don't want my brain to fester anymore then it has. So I want to get back into shooting. I'm reading...and reading....and reading.....and reading on it. There are so many choices/combos that it's bewildering. Hunting does not hold much appeal to me and again, for me, going to a 100 yard range is mostly about making noise or sighting a rifle for hunting. Basically, I want to get into long range shooting. But...I have a history of getting excited for something new, spending stupid money on it and then getting bored with it. Sooo....I'm starting from scratch and I'm joining a club. I'm kind of hoping that I can meet and greet with other shooters and get into a bit of competition shooting for motivation. I contacted my not so local "local club" and going to their open house in March....and take it from there. They asked me what I "liked" and if I want to join F-class. Don't know what that is so I'm doing some homework on it....although my wife thinks it simply means old [B]F[/B]arts [B]class [/B] Which brings me to....is there anyone in the GTA (greater Toronto area) that is doing F-class? Or Ontario? I can use all the help I can get to get back into the sport. [/QUOTE]
