I don't know what is wrong with the bag of sugar test tongueout (if you can hang a bag of sugar from the trigger without the trigger going off its fine) I wouldn't be surprised to find a significant number of "pulled " shots are down to triggers set too light.

I thought we had decided as long as it's safe (or the shooter is), we weren't going be too picky.

Edit: Thought so - Revision 4 states: Triggers are now free as long as they are safe.
Sorry, I missed out on reading the revision 4 :cool2:

Don't worry - Revision 5 is supposed to be coming out soon, with some minor tweaks! fingerscrossed

Any ideas - just fire away - it's still a work in progress.

BTW welcome to the madhouse! :good:

No worries, will do. I wasn't sure if you'd got sidetracked (as we all do!) or just hadn't had a chance to put it up.

I'll run it past you and Mike first before putting it up, just in case I see anything else that could do with refining.

The working document for S-Class has been updated as a result of the Strathpeffer competition last month.

S-Class-Proposal-R5


The main changes are the introduction of four range classifications for S-Class, the introduction of the Predator/Hunter sub classes for rifles and competitions, sighting shots and the course of fire.

Predator Class – Small deer/vermin Rifles: 22 Centre fire and smaller.
Hunter Class – Small/Large deer: 22 Centre fire and larger. See individual countries for minimum requirements.


Distance A: 100/200/300 yards/meters (Predator Class)
Distance B: 200/300/500 yards/meters (Predator/Hunter)
Distance C: 300/500/600 yards/meters (Hunter Class only)
Distance D – Discretionary (Organising Club/Shooters choice out to 800 yards/metres)


Any questions, just ask!
