What struck me however was the huge cost of all the equipment in use!

....and this is the reason HFT came about, for FT you do need to spend a fair wedge just to get on the bottom rung think high mag ranging scope for a start., HFT is a lot cheaper for newcomers. There is a lot of high end stuff being used in HFT but also lower end kit which can still be competitive, think AA 200/400 and 3-9x40 scope and you can be well up the scores if your basically a decent shot.
