Rule changes for Pistol Field Target

There has been a small group of people organizing rule changes, according to Wayne Burns from the Ashland Air Rifle Range, and are elected to form a committee to decide, organize, and put together Official rules for Pistol Field Target implemented by the AAFTA. so be advised to either some more fun and latitude, or it also can turn the other way around and give more restrictions. at our club, we ultimately decide on rules. however, when competing at a regional or national event, one will be subject to the rules set for by the AAFTA.

so far, 12 fpe has been voted on. this is what i had anticipated from the get go. no change in our current rule on power.  this is good! good power for hunting and a more than enough power for 35 yards in f/t shooing. with this set up, a 22 cal is at no real big disadvantage over a 177 call. this is good for the true hunter and should also satisfy the true target guys with a more than impressive velocity.

currently the debate continues on scope allowable mag and fore arm/knee pads/add ons/barrel length are only a few things being discussed. stay tuned. voice your opinions to me if there is something of concern or if you feel something needs to be done. i welcome all opinions on the matter or questions.

right now, six classes are being decided on:


sincerely,
