From long range 22 Rimfire competitions like NRL 22, to precision rifle, service rifle, F-Class, and even air gun, the list of long-range competitions available to shooters is, well, long. Tune in to find out more about the many facets and find out which just may be your cup of tea.

I shot the sniper challenge the year with the rollover car. It was a legit SUV with a roll cage. They rolled it onto it's roof using a tow strap over the top of the vehicle, hooked to the lower frame. A dually pickup drove away from the passenger side of the rollover vehicle, pulling it over. Cardboard targets attached to the front bumper flipped 'down in front of the windshield, which we had to engage with pistols, before extricating ourselves from the vehicle and retrieving the rest of our gear and heading to the rifle engagement down a hill, across a pond.
That sounds pretty fun!
Here in the North East, you can't see more than a few hundred yards in any direction unless you are looking across a lake. The one long range range that exists had to be carved out of woods.
Man, good stuff right here! I got turned onto the show/channel from some of the 10min cartridge talks.. I've really enjoyed the GO Long-Rage series! Not a PRS or F-Class shooter myself, but have always found it very interesting.. It's where all of the Real firearms nerds hang out :) Calculating throat/bore erosion and loading ammo at the range to keep em` as tight as possible! Great conversations and enjoyable content. Keep it up.
We should definitely go back to that.
Federal law still directs the conduct of the National Matches: Public Law Title 36, U.S. Code § 40727. There is no such similar provision to conduct baseball or any other sport.
No love for silhouette shooting? 45/70 blackpowder at 500 meters is pretty long-range!
50yard, 100 yard, 50m is the Dewar Course. You can really get in trouble if you underestimate the 50yard target.
Just seen this guys. Awesome discussions covering a great range of topics. I shoot with Vortex scopes from my .22 to .308 and 6.5 cm. Upto 1200 yds on ranges here in the UK 🇬🇧. We nick name F-class as “belly bench rest” due to the technology and cost involved. Lol
🤜🤛
Thank you this was very interesting and helpful
A great watch!
I wish i knew this 5 years ago.
I wish AR Tactical Rifle would be stand alone. I am shooting against F Open just so I can feel competitive. Rght now I am the only 1 in my league. I'm thinking that I now I have get a bolt gun so I can go after the top shooters.
Noooo, Ian was about to say which two off-the-shelf production rifles he considers to be F T/R capable and he got cut off with a change of subject! Which two was he about to say?!!
I wish you had gone into Service Rifle a bit more
Also talking about the rifles and equipment in F class would have been interesting
Chef Virgil. Nuff said.
Does the > cold bore < elr 2158 yard record set a couple years ago still stand ? I would like to know which golden eagle reticle he used, dot or line ? edit I see the record has been pushed out to 2350 recently. I would still like to know which reticle was used in 2019 golden eagle and at what power, also it is still impressive that 2019 was a stock savage barrel and action.
How would you do with a hunting rifle that shoots consistant 1/4 MOA groups with hand loads (Finding the node) in 7mm Rem Mag in F-class, with someone who has the skill to read the weather? And could you use it in F Open?
Would a 7mm Rem Mag even qualify with a 195 grain Alco Bullet.....1/4 MOA for ELR? G1 B.C. of .935. .461 G7 B.C. Transsonic at roughly 2500 yds with a good shooter? 75.1 grains of RL33 and 2969 FPS from a 26" barrel? Or is it more just equipment, super spendy components and the super heavy platform? DISCLAIMER...ALWAYS start with the lowest powder charge (weight) Your reloading manual recommends for your chambering.

Shotgun slug?
Sorry Ian but I’m a gun lover but everyone knows baseball has been a competitive sport decades longer than shooting has been in this country. There is a reason why they call baseball Americas past time sport.
First shooting competition in America was held in 1775. The first baseball game was held in 1876 in new york
Anything Rimfire... Yuck...!
