    Gutted

    You must be gutted Andy...no more 25mm at 40 yards, but on the plus side you can set 30mm at 45 yards...bargain

    Are positional rules staying the same ?

    The provisional updates are still being finalised, but as we are the first round I have had to jump the gun a bit in releasing these changes which will be trialed through out the Series. Other changes are mostly geared towards clearing up ambiguities and fairness.

    I am sure they will be posted soon.

    The above changes to the 2018 rules for 2019 are these the only ones?

    Is there any changes to postionals?

    Is there somewhere where we can read up on the proposed 2019 rules.

    Cheers.

    So no 25mm up to 40 yards now?
    How many 30 mm targets are allowed in total?

    Remember these are provisional rules for 2019 that The Southern Hunters are trialing for their 2018-2019 season. After which UKAHFT will take on board any feedback and decide on whether to implement or not.

    So on Sunday 25mm prone shots will be limited to a maximum distance of 35yds like back in the day.

    You are allowed eight 25mm which consist of 20mm to 34mm targets. Of these a minimum of two targets must be 20mm so you are allowed a maximum of six 30mm however only three can be between 35yds to 45yds.

    If you are shooting elsewhere they may well be shooting the current 2018 rules.

    Nope...

    Nope, read that several times and have no idea....maybe I need to drink more ...I will carry on turning up and trying to knock over what ever is in front of me (although always the bridesmaid), why is it presented as sooo complicated...or is it just me (I know someone will now post "just you"...go on, you know you want to).

    Glad you "back room boys" are on it...does anyone really have the brain power to remember all the sizes they have shot on a course, if they do (and I think some come close) then, hats off, they deserve the wins.

    Again, don't know if its just me but it's the minimum size and maximum range that matter, so now 15 out to 25, 20 out to 30, 25 out to 35 and 30 out to 45, that has a sort of simplicity to it......make everything start from 8 yards again, to simplify it even more I say

    My eyes wont bracket kills at range, top scope or not, so this may help even things

    The difference between a 25 at 40 and a 35 at 45 was readable, good luck with that now...you got to love those sneaky buggers

    I like the sound of it...lets hope it "works".
