Dear Lol THE TROLL,

There is no such shot as kneeling. It is "stand or kneel" as it is deemed you cannot force someone to kneel. The 40 yard stand or kneel was allowed in after consultation when it was trialed on the proviso that a support for the stand option must be in place and suitable for shooters of all heights as the range on this shot had been increased. Prior to that all stand or kneel shots had to have a support for the kneeling option but not necessarily the standing option if chosen that remains the same as it has always been.

I am not privy to UKAHFT National tolerances as I don't marshall them.

Off course if its wrong by an inch it should be pulled. People use a peg to set their rifles up don't they? or are they just stupid?? Front of the peg as obviously pegs are different sizes before you bring that one up. There is a huge difference between 13yds and 12.5yds to some peoples setups. Why should they be punished for lazy/bad course setting. I have tried high mounts and all the close ones are critical. On super low now so don't care. I hadn't even noticed the 15mm was short I just accepted it was a 20mm and moved on someone much cleverer than me noticed it and called it. I salute him.

I can't personally understand why someone participating in a precision shooting sport would want the target distances on a course of fire to be anything other than correct to the nearest millimetre as at the end of the day those millimetres are the difference between first and first last.

No one forces us to shoot .
When you turn up to partake in any sport or game you do so knowing and accepting the rules , if you don't like the rules then surely you don't take part ??

What you don't do is whine and moan incessantly , you just do not take part ... SIMPLES ....

I don't like some of the rules , i don't understand some of the rules, but i accept that it is somebody else's ball so i choose to go with it .

Were you bullied as a child Lol ?
