[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1450622, member: 10291"] I just started shooting PRS, both centerfire and rimfire. The centerfire matches had distances out to 1000 yards, the 22, our to 300 yards. This game is all about achieving steadiness with unconventional shooting positions, speed, and wind doping skills. You and your rifle should be capable of delivering at least 1 MOA performance, with reliable feeding/extraction, and well practiced in quick 5 or 10rd magazine changers. Some stages can require as many as 20 rounds. With lots of newer shooters getting involved, in the various matches I’ve attended, the experienced shooters have been exceptionally helpful and patient with new shooters. Because stages can require position changes and quick movements, attention and adherence to safety rules are strictly monitored and adhered to. Best advice for a first match is to make sure you understand your dopes up through the max distance of the course. You can have both turret changing, or reticle hold only stages, so a capable scope will be required. Bring a bipod, at least one bag, and a backpack that can serve as a support. Look at the first match as a learning experience and enjoy yourself! [/QUOTE]
