We are listening to the feedback about the 30mm and a decision will be made in the new year.

Hope this helps

IMHO I would advise against putting 30mm out to 45y, course's have become long range tests (usually) as it is.
Moving 30mm out to 45y just adds to that, it'll get to the point where not having a long range setup will put you at a disadvantage (some would say that's the case already)

Yes it's a course design issue, the course designers don't have to put most of the targets out long........ but they do, how about thinking of ways to encourage them to start increasing the amount of short range targets, actually make it so there's a negative to a long range setup.
