HFT and Vintage air rifles, some form of competition incorporating old classics.
After reading a few posts about the forthcoming Bisley event especially for classic and collectable air rifles. I was thinking would it be possible and more importantly would there be any interest from members to incorporate a classic/collectable event, either a side shoot or even some form of competition on a suitable range and as yet to be agreed number of targets into future HFT comps providing there is room on the host clubs range for this extra shoot.
To make it interesting there could be an open sights policy with standard cord resettable knockdowns at a max of 35 yards down to 10 yards.
Or possibly classes, say for instance class A for the rifles with open sights. And class B, period rifles with contemporary telescopic sights, no mildots allowed. Apart from that still the standard HFT rules 1 point faceplate 2 points for a knockdown.
I spoke to Pete Sparks this morning and he's all for the idea, club space allowing.
Any interest, input or ideas from members on this.
