[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 223432, member: 8"] There are a lot of variations of F-Class. There is the shorter range then the mid range out to 600 yards and then the long range stuff out to1000 yards. Different clubs have different rules on rifle configurations. There is a military caliber class of rifles called F-TR. They usually compete alongside and at the same times as the other rifles but are scored separately. It is not unusual to have to drive for a couple of hours to attend a match so I would advise you to not be discouraged if nothing is real close. Choice of calibers is going to be affected by the distances you have to shoot and the amount of wind you have to deal with routinely. Long range F-class is all about wind management and I doubt that the PPC is going to give you enough speed with high BC bullets to be very competitive. You do not mention what stock you will use but it is a critical issue. I did not answer many of your questions, but hopefully, have caused you to wait on the build until you know what the rules are where you are going to be competing. [/QUOTE]
