    Your scope will get you going but as above, most go with a smaller objective size.
    1/2 mildot scopes (or those based on similar spacing) help a lot with aim points (hold over / under).
    Have a read through the sections on the link below. Loads of helpful advice.

    FT is generally shot with even more specialised guns and much larger scopes.
    Adjusting the scope is permitted so large magnifications are used to range-find the target precisely then a smaller magnification used to take the shot.
    Targets are generic metal plates rather than quarry-shaped.
    Sitting on a beanbag is a normal shooting position for FT but not allowed in HFT.
    Maximum distance is 55 yards rather than 45.
    Shots are taken from within a 'gate' rather than from in contact with a peg.
    Scoring is 1 for knockdown else zero.
    Anything I've forgotten.....
