    BR with FAC Air Rifle?

    Anyone shoot Bench Rest with an FAC air rifle?

    I shoot prone and BR with 22lr, and have a Hammerli AR20FT on order for BR (probably just use it for 25 yards indoors), but wondered about an FAC air rifle for longer ranges outdoors.

    I wonder if they'll allow FAC air for target use? No reason why not, but you know what FEOs are like.

    Is there a distance for BR between 25 and 100 yards? If 100 then I'd personally go with a centrefire.

    Just waiting for Joshua fight to start, but I will try and answer quickly.

    The shooting which I now do is prone and BR, both with rimfire (.22LR). Ranges (25yds indoors, 50m and 100yds outdoors) are therefore certified for .22LR, which has typically 100+ FPE, so I would have thought that there shouldn't be a problem with an FAC air rifle?

    Right, the fight has just started!
